Publishing and Unpublishing an Item

The master switch that controls whether an item is visible to visitors.


If you want to hide content without deleting it, similar to saving a draft or moving to an archive, use the Published toggle.

Step 1: Enter Edit Mode

Look at the top right side of your screen, just below the navigation bar. Click on the Pencil Icon to toggle Edit Mode on.

Step 2: Access the Content Manager

Click directly on the Main Body/Content of the item. The system will automatically redirect you to the Content Manager and highlight the section.

Step 3: Use the Published checkbox

Scroll to the very bottom of the Content Manager screen to find the visibility settings:

  • To make visible: Ensure the Published checkbox is ticked. The content is live.
  • To hide (Draft/Archive): Uncheck the box. The content remains saved but is not visible to visitors.

Click Save to apply the visibility update.

Pro Tip: Unpublishing is the best way to work on new content over several days. Keep it unpublished while you write and only check the box when you are ready for the world to see it.

Content

Create categories, add items, edit copy, attach images and icons, reorder, and delete.

The Content section covers creating categories and content items, editing copy, attaching images and icons, reordering, and deleting.

Deleting

Permanently removes a content item and all its sub-items from your site.

Deletion is permanent. If you only want to temporarily hide content, use the Published toggle instead.

Step 1: Enter Edit Mode Look at the top right side of your screen, just below the navigation bar. Click on the Pencil Icon to toggle Edit Mode on.

Step 2: Access the Content Manager Click directly on the Main Body/Content of the item you want to delete. The system will automatically redirect you to the Content Manager and highlight that specific section.

Step 3: Delete the item

  1. Look at the top right side of the Content Manager screen, just to the left of the Save button.
  2. Click the Delete button.
  3. A prompt will appear asking if you are sure. Only click OK if you are absolutely certain.

Important: Once an item is deleted, it is permanently removed from the system. We cannot retrieve or undo a deletion, so please double-check before confirming.

Categories

Adds a new top-level section to your site with its own page and URL.

Categories are your main sections. Examples: Services, Projects, Blog, About.

Each category automatically receives a homepage section, its own dedicated page, and its own URL.

  1. Click on Sites in the Nav bar.
  2. Click on Content -- this takes you to the Content Manager for your website.
  3. On the left sidebar, the first button will be a (+New). Ensure you select that and not the ones under a pre-existing category.
  4. This will lead you to a form. Enter the relevant information using the Data Entry Guide below.
  5. Click Save.

The category is automatically added to the homepage, given its own dedicated page, and assigned its own URL. You do not need to manually create the page separately.

Field NameWhat it does
NameThe internal name used to identify this item in the system.
Display nameThe name that people will see on the actual website.
Display pluralThe name used when the system refers to a group of these items (e.g., "Galleries" instead of "Gallery").
TitleThe main heading of your page. Start here.
Short TitleA shorter version of the title to be used in small spaces, like menu bars.
TaglineA brief, catchy sentence that appears under the title (like a slogan).
Short ContentA one-sentence summary of this section. This exact sentence becomes the section's description in your site's structured data, so write one complete, standalone sentence.
ContentThe main section where you type all the primary information and details.
IconA small symbol or graphic used to represent this item visually.
ImageA photo or logo you select from the library to be shown with your content.
External LinkA web address you can add if you want to send people to a different website.
Display OrderA number that tells the system which item should come first, second, or third in a list.

The Golden Rule: Start with the Title. Everything else is optional depending on how much detail you want to add. The page's web link (slug) is generated for you automatically.

Content items live inside categories. Examples: a service inside Services, an article inside Blog.

  2. Click on Content -- this takes you to the Content Manager for your website.
  3. On the left sidebar, find the (+New) button under the category you want to add this content item to. Ensure you select that and not the one above which creates a new category.

Visibility

Control what appears on your homepage, navbar, footer, and in search.

Visibility settings control where each piece of content appears: on the homepage, in the navbar, in the footer, or hidden entirely.

Your homepage shows a highlights reel for each category. Only featured items appear in it. The category page always shows everything published.

  1. In Edit Mode, click the pencil icon on the section containing the item.
  2. Find the item in the content manager.
  3. Toggle the Featured switch off to remove it from the homepage, or on to include it.
  4. Click Save.

If no items are featured, the category section on the homepage shows with no content inside it. Keep at least one item featured per category.

Meta

Removes a category from the homepage while keeping its page and URL active.

By default, categories appear on the homepage. You can hide a category from the homepage while still keeping its dedicated page active.

Step 1: Enter Edit Mode Look at the top right side of your screen, just below the navigation bar. Click the Pencil Icon to toggle Edit Mode on.

Step 2: Access the Content Manager Click on the Main Body/Content of the category you wish to hide. You will be redirected to the Content Manager and your section will be highlighted.

Step 3: Enable the Hide setting

Scroll to the bottom of the Content Manager to the checkbox section. Locate the box labeled 'Hide from Main Page' and tick it. Ensure the Published box is still checked -- if it is unchecked, the category will disappear from the menus as well.

Step 4: Save Click Save at the top right of your screen.

Why use this? This is perfect for Legal or Privacy Policy categories that you want people to find in the footer, but do not want showing up as a main featured block on your front page.
