Module 3 of 6
Training / Elementor essentials / Lesson 5 of 8
In Elementor, your changes stay private until you choose to make them live. That gives you room to try things and check them first.
You'll learn
The difference between a draft, a preview and a live page
Takes
About 3 minutes
You'll need
A page open in Elementor
1
Click the eye icon in the top bar. Your page opens in a new tab exactly as visitors would see it, with your unpublished changes included. Nobody else can see this.
2
Click Publish at the top right. The changes are now on your website for everyone.
3
Click the small arrow beside Publish and choose Save Draft. Your work is kept, but the live page stays as it was.
4
After publishing, open your website in a new tab and look at the page. Refresh it if you still see the old version.
5
Click the Elementor logo at the top left and choose Exit to WordPress.
Your browser has kept an old copy. Refresh the page, or hold Shift while you refresh.
Open History, choose Revisions, pick the version before your change and click Apply, then Publish.
Elementor may offer to restore your work next time you open the page. If not, the changes are gone but your live page is untouched.
Tell us which page it’s on and what you’re trying to do. We can talk you through it or make the change for you.
