Drafts, Previews, an Publishing

This article explains how to save drafts, preview changes, and publish pages in Frame so you can control when your updates go live.

Updated 1 day ago

Drafts

A draft is a page or post that is not yet visible on your live website.
Use drafts when you are still working on content and don’t want visitors to see it yet.

How to Save as a Draft

  1. Open or create a page in the Block Editor.

  2. If the page is new, click Save Draft in the top-right corner.

  3. The page will be saved privately so you can return and edit later.

Tip: If a page is already published, saving doesn’t make it live — it only updates when you click Update.

Autosave

Frame automatically saves your work as you edit.

  • Autosave is a backup — it prevents loss if your browser closes unexpectedly.

  • Autosave does not publish your changes.

  • If needed, you can restore autosaved content when reopening the page.

Previewing Changes (Before Publishing)

Preview lets you see what your page will look like live without showing it to visitors.

How to Preview

  1. In the top-right corner of the editor, click Preview or View Page.

  2. A new tab will open showing what the page will look like once published.

Use preview to check:

  • Layout and spacing

  • Images and formatting

  • Text accuracy

Only you see the preview — your visitors do not.

Publishing (Making Changes Public)

When you're ready for everyone to see the page, publish it.

If the Page is New

  • Click Publish to make the page live.

If the Page Already Exists

  • Click Update to replace the current live page with your new changes.

Once published or updated, the changes become visible to all site visitors.

Viewing the Live Page

After you publish or update:

Option 1 — From the Editor

  • Click View Page in the top-right corner.

Option 2 — From the Dashboard

  1. Go to Dashboard → Pages

  2. Hover over the page title

  3. Click View

Option 3 — On the Website

  • Navigate through your site menu like a visitor would.

If Your Changes Don’t Appear Right Away

Your browser might be showing a cached (older saved) version.

Try one of the following:

  • Refresh the page

  • Press Shift + Refresh for a hard reload

  • View in Incognito / Private Window
