Managing your website pages

A quick guide on publishing and saving your website pages as draft

πŸ’‘

This guide explains how to manage your content pages while updating your website. It covers how to unpublish, delete, duplicate, and draft pages, as well as how to update page URLs. You’ll also find practical tips on when to use each option.


Page Status Options Overview

You can manage page visibility and lifecycle using the following options:

  • Unpublish β€” Temporarily remove a page from your live website
  • Delete β€” Permanently remove a page
  • Duplicate β€” Create a copy of an existing page
  • Save as Draft β€” Work on changes without publishing them
  • Edit URL Slug β€” Update the page URL and title

Most actions are available from:

  • The Pages table (where all content pages are listed)
    • Notion image
  • The Page Builder settings bar (at the top of an open page)
    • Notion image

Unpublishing Pages

Unpublishing removes a page from your live website without deleting it. This is recommended when you may need the page again later.

When to use

Use Unpublish when:

  • Content is temporarily outdated
  • A page is being redesigned
  • You want to hide a page without losing its content

Unpublish from the Pages table

  1. Open the Pages table.
  1. Find your page.
  1. In the Status column, click the green tick icon.
  1. Click Confirm in the dialog box.

Republish a page

  1. In the Status column, click the yellow icon.
  1. Click Confirm.

Unpublish or republish from within a page

You can also unpublish or republish directly inside the page:

  1. Open the page in the Page Builder.
  1. Use the same status icons in the top settings bar.
  1. Confirm your action.

Deleting Pages

Deleting permanently removes a page from your site.

⚠️ Warning: Deleting a page cannot be undone.

When to use

Only delete a page if:

  • It is no longer needed
  • You are certain the content will not be reused

If you are unsure, unpublish instead to keep a record of the content.

Delete from the Pages table

  1. Open the Pages table.
  1. Click the trashcan icon on the right side of the page row.
  1. Click Confirm.

Delete from within a page

  1. Open the page in the Page Builder.
  1. Click the trashcan icon in the top settings bar.
  1. Confirm deletion.

Duplicating Pages

Duplicating creates a new page with the same content and layout as an existing page.

When to use

Duplicating is useful when:

  • Reusing a layout or structure
  • Creating similar pages quickly
  • Building template-based content

Duplicate from the Pages table

  1. Open the Pages table.
  1. Find the page.
  1. Select Duplicate page from the Actions column.

Duplicate from within a page

  1. Open the page in the Page Builder.
  1. Click Duplicate in the top settings bar.

A new page will be created with identical content. You can then edit it normally.


Saving Pages as Draft

Draft mode lets you work on page updates without publishing them immediately.

When to use

Use Draft when:

  • Changes are not ready to go live
  • Content needs review or approval
  • You are making staged updates

Save a page as draft

  1. Open the page in the Page Builder.
  1. Click Save as draft in the top settings bar.

Draft options

When a page is in draft state, you can:

  • Save draft β€” Save your current draft changes
  • Revert draft changes β€” Discard draft edits and return to the last published version
  • Publish β€” Replace the live page with the draft version

Updating the Page Title and URL Slug

You can edit both the page title and URL slug from the page settings.

Important rules

  • Title and slug can be edited independently.
  • The URL slug can only be changed when the page is:
    • Unpublished, or
    • In draft state.

Update title and slug

  1. Open the page in the Page Builder.
  1. Click the settings cog next to the page name (top-left of the settings bar).
  1. Enter the new:
      • Page title
      • URL slug
  1. Save your changes.

Auto-generate a slug

  • Click the refresh icon next to the URL slug field to automatically generate a slug from the page title.
