This guide explains how to avoid publishing changes directly to a page of Site Creator Infomaniak.

Preamble

• The draft mode allows not to publish the following modifications:
  • addition of a new content block via the Content menu
  • visual or textual modification of a content block
  • deletion of a content block
• The draft mode does not apply to:
  • global design changes, via the Design menu (colors, fonts ...)
  • content modifications related to applications (questions/answers, e-commerce ...)
  • modifications of global settings, via the Settings menu (Pages, languages ...)
  • sub-pages of the page you unpublish

Save without publishing

Prerequisites

• Access Site Creator:
  • Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
  • Click directly on the name assigned to the concerned Site Creator.
  • Click on the button Edit my site to start the editor:
    

You can switch a page to draft mode to make text changes or other in the content of a page that will not be visible live, until the moment you decide to put the site back in direct publication mode:

1. Click on the button ... located at the very bottom of the left sidebar, to expand the publishing and preview options
2. Click on Live to switch to Unpublished mode
3. Now, the yellow mode displayed at the bottom indicates that all your modifications (on this page only) will not be visible live (unlike the Live mode) but will be saved in a draft even if you leave the page or the editor:
   

Publish the modifications or delete the draft

1. When the Unpublished mode is active, click on the yellow button of the Unpublished mode to display a settings panel.
2. The settings panel opens so that you can:
   1. publish your modifications,
   2. or delete the current draft and return to the initial state of the page.

Example

1. With the Live mode (visible at the bottom of the screen), a modification is directly visible to the page visitors.
2. With the Unpublished / Draft mode (identifiable by a yellow symbol at the bottom of the pages switched to this mode), your modifications are not visible in real-time.
3. Leave the page to work on another page, the mode reverts to the default mode, i.e., the Live mode, as the page is not the same and the mode only applies to the selected pages.
4. Return to the page saved as a draft, a symbol at the bottom of the page always indicates that the draft mode is activated.
5. Click on it to choose to publish or delete the modifications and restore the page as it was before your modifications in draft mode.
