Publish your site

What you edit is a draft. Publishing copies it to your live site, the one visitors see.

Look at it first#

Press Preview (the eye at the top of your dashboard or the editor). Your draft opens in a new tab under a banner that says Preview — this is your draft. Visitors can’t see changes until you publish. Only you and the administrator can open it. It works before you pay, too.

Publish#

  1. Press Publish at the top

    It’s at the top of your dashboard and of the editor. Anything not saved yet is saved first.

  2. You see Your portfolio is live!

    Everyone with the link can now see your latest changes.

LabelWhat it means
Not published yetNobody can see your site yet.
Unpublished changesYour site is live, but your newest edits aren’t on it yet.
LiveVisitors see exactly what you see.
The label next to your site’s name in the editor.

Publishing from the editor updates your content and keeps whichever layout is live. To publish a design, use Publish this design in the Designer.

Hide your site again#

  1. Press Unpublish (hide my page)

    The eye with a line through it, just before Publish at the top. On a phone or small screen it’s in More (⋯).

  2. Confirm

    Visitors see a “coming soon” page until you publish again. Your content stays safe in the editor.

Go back to an earlier version#

Every publish keeps a version of your whole site: your content, your design and which layout showed. Find them in Version history, in your dashboard’s sidebar (the Designer has the same list behind its clock button). Your first version is always kept, plus the 10 newest and the one that’s live.

ActionWhat it does
PreviewSee that version exactly as it went live.
Put this version liveYour site goes back to exactly that version: its content, design and layout. Your draft stays as it is.
Edit from hereMakes that version your draft, content and design, so you can change it. Your live site doesn’t change.
Rename and DeleteGive a version a name you’ll remember, or remove it. The live version can’t be deleted.

Share your address#

Your link is on the Dashboard, in the Share card: copy it, or press Download QR code for a business card or poster. View live site, at the bottom of the dashboard’s sidebar, opens your live site. In the editor, once your site is live, View live site (the arrow leaving a box, next to the eye) opens it too. On a phone or small screen, the editor puts Copy link, View live site and Preview into More (⋯).

With more than one site, press the site in your dashboard’s header to pick another. See Add another site.
