Updating a site that's already live

Make changes to a published site and push them live. Your edits only appear once you republish.

Your site is never locked once it's live — you can change it whenever you like. The key thing to know: your edits only appear to visitors once you republish.

Update a live site

  1. Open your site in the editor and make your changes.
  2. Preview them to check they look right.
  3. Press Publish again to push the changes live.

NoteUntil you republish, your live site keeps showing the previous version — so you can edit safely without visitors seeing half-finished changes.

TipPlans include a monthly allowance of updates, and higher plans allow more. If you update very often, check the numbers in Plans and what's included.

If you've republished but still see the old version, it's usually your browser's cache — see I can't see my changes.
