Publish a site from your canvas

Only pages publish, so start by checking your canvas has them, then choose an address.

  1. Add a page

    Pick the Frame tool and click a preset in the right rail. A preset places a page. A frame you drag out on the canvas never publishes, though you can right-click an artboard to convert it.

  2. Set a home page and paths

    Open the Pages list. Right-click a page and choose Set as home page, then give each other page a URL path in Page settings.

  3. Choose an address

    Choose Publish site at the top right. Type the name you want in front of .builder.website.

  4. Preview the draft

    Press Preview draft in the dialog to see the site before it goes live.

  5. Publish

    Press Publish. The dialog checks the site first and names anything stopping it, such as a missing home page or two pages sharing a path. Fix those and press Publish again.

After it is live

  • Change the canvas, open the dialog again and press Publish changes. Your live site stays as it was until you do.
  • Open the site from Sites in your dashboard. Its Versions tab lists earlier publishes and can restore one.
  • Publishing options in the dialog let you schedule a publish. Take offline stops visitors reaching the site and keeps its versions.
