What are page drafts?
Page drafts allow you to make changes to your website pages without immediately publishing those changes to your live website. This gives you the flexibility to work on updates over time and publish them when you're ready.
You can create drafts for both published pages (pages already visible on your website) and unpublished pages (pages not yet visible on your website).
Important things to know about drafts
For published pages: When you save edits as a draft on a page that's already published, your changes won't appear on your website right away. Visitors will continue to see the current published version until you publish your draft.
Draft limitations: You can only have one draft version of a page at a time. If you save new edits as a draft, any previous draft changes will be replaced with your newest edits.
Publish history: Draft changes don't appear in your page's publish history until you actually publish the draft.
How to save a page as a draft
Follow these simple steps to save your work as a draft:
Make your edits to the page content as needed
Click the "Save Draft" button located at the bottom of the page
Look for confirmation in the top right corner of your screen - you'll see a message indicating your draft was saved successfully
Your changes are now safely saved but won't be visible to website visitors until you choose to publish them.
How to identify pages with drafts
When you're viewing your list of pages, any page that has unpublished draft changes will display a "Draft" icon next to it. This makes it easy to see which pages have pending changes waiting to be published.
How to publish your draft
When you're ready to make your draft changes live on your website:
Open the page with the draft you want to publish
Click the "Publish" button located at the bottom right of the page
Once published, your changes will be visible on your live website and will appear in the page's publish history for future reference.
