How to Check Which Pages are Published and Live

It's essential to know which of your pages are live in your theme and accessible to your audience.

Here’s how you can check and manage published pages:

• Access Dashboard < Website Builder < Pages
• Under the Published column, all pages that state Yes are published and live
• Click on Settings to edit the page URL, title, description, and keyword etc.
• Click on Edit to modify the page design using the Page Builder

Changing Themes

You can only have one theme active at a time. Every time a new theme is installed, all existing pages are unpublished, and the new theme's pages are published.

You can edit or delete any of these pages under ‘Pages’ in the Website Builder. If you need the old pages, you will need to publish them again.

Keep in mind that changing themes will not carry over content and customizations from one theme to another.

Adding a Menu and Updating Your Site Content

Once a theme is installed, you can customize your site further by adding a menu and updating your content. This includes making changes such as updating text, changing images, and more to fit your brand's needs.
