Pages

The pages list, the page form, previews, edit locks and history.

The heart of the CMS. The sidebar badge counts pages waiting for review.

The list

  • Tabs: All pages, Published, Scheduled, Review and Drafts, plus Ended (the unpublish date has passed) and Changes waiting (unpublished changes) when they have pages.
  • Each row shows the full address on the site's domain; icons for the homepage, password protection and someone else editing; the status; and the layout, block count, author and last edit.
  • Search and filters: by title and address; filter by status, layout, author and trashed.
  • New page asks for a title, then opens the form with the address filled in. Start from copies another page's blocks as a template.
  • Row actions: Design (visual editor), Publish, Settings, View or Preview, Create subpage, Duplicate, Delete and Restore.
  • Bulk actions: Publish, Move to drafts, Reindex, Delete and Restore, each checked page by page against permissions.

Around the form

  • Language switcher: edit the page's text in each language.
  • Preview: a signed link that shows a draft, a scheduled page or unpublished changes inside the real site.
  • Edit locks: opening a page takes a lock, renewed every 20 seconds and dropped after 60 seconds without renewal. Others see who is editing and can Take over; saves from anyone else are refused while the lock is held.
  • Changing the address of a live page asks whether to keep the old address working, then creates 301 redirects in every language. Subpages follow.
  • History: every revision with its source (Editor, Visual editor, MCP, Assistant, Restore or System), the person and a summary, a preview of any revision, and one-click restore.
  • Duplicate: a draft copy with the same content, layout and translations.
