Previewing of modified content

Preview of edited content
Click on the image for a full size version

Modified structured contents or pages can directly be previewed from each editor by clicking on the "Preview" button. The full page is displayed with the selected template applied.

Even if you save your page and leave the editor, the changes are not visible "live" to the public until you publish them. This way it is possible to edit a number of pages or even the complete website "offline", and publish all the changed pages later, for example after they have been approved by a responsible person.
