Preview, restore versions and publish
Check your site in the preview, go back to an earlier version, and publish to staging or to your live site.
Preview
Preview (⌘P, Ctrl+P on Windows) shows the site as visitors see it, at the width of a breakpoint. Preview the next breakpoint (⌘.) and Preview the previous breakpoint (⌘,) switch widths. Close preview or Esc takes you back to the editor.
Version history
Version history (⇧⌘H) lists the versions of your site, newest first. Xeek Sites saves versions by itself, for example before each publish, and Save version saves one with a name you choose.
- Preview a version to see how the site was then. Nothing changes until you restore it.
- Restore brings that version back. The message after it has an Undo button. Translations and collections stay as they are.
- Back to the current version leaves the preview.
Publish
- Open Publish (⇧⌘P).
- Under Publish to, choose Staging, a private copy only your team can open, or Production, your live site. Your role decides which you may choose.
- What changes lists the pages that changed since the last publish.
- Checks lists problems. Errors block publishing until you fix them. Facts marked for checking and sample content from the library can be confirmed one by one with Confirm; that removes the mark from your site. Click a problem to go to its layer.
- Click Publish to staging or Publish to production. The dialog follows the publish to its end, with a link to Open the live site.
You can keep editing while it publishes. Your email address must be verified before you can publish.
