My changes aren't showing on my live site
Updated October 2, 2026
If you've edited something and your live site looks the same, it's usually one of these.
- You haven't published. Edits save to a draft. Click Publish in the top bar. See Publish your website.
- The change is hidden by a section setting. A hidden section doesn't appear. Check it's switched on in the Website editor.
- Your template doesn't include that section. See Choose a website template.
- Your browser is showing an old copy. Refresh the page, or open it in a private window.
- You're looking at your own domain. A custom domain only serves your site once it's been connected. See My domain isn't working.
Check what's live
The dashboard's Last Published card shows when you last went live. If the time is earlier than your edit, publish again.
Tip: The live preview shows your draft, including unpublished changes. If it looks right there but not on the live site, you haven't published.
