Pages

Pages are the site’s structural content: the About, Services, Contact, and everything else that lives at its own URL. This page covers creating and editing pages, parent/child hierarchy, choosing templates, and how slugs work.

Creating and editing pages

From the Pages section choose New page. You set a title and body, pick a language from your site’s configured languages, and choose a slug (see below). Save as a draft or publish immediately; publishing is subject to the approval workflow if it’s switched on, in which case a non-admin’s publish attempt becomes a submit-for-review.

The editor gives you the standard fields plus the extras on hand:

Featured image with alt text and focal-point coordinates (which part of the image stays in view when cropped).
Sticky: marks a page to sort first in built listings.
Schedule publish / unpublish: datetimes interpreted in the site timezone (the scheduled entry only appears on the site when its time arrives, and leaves again after the unpublish window).
Per-page SEO: meta title, meta description, og title/description/image, explicit canonical URL, and sitemap controls: include in sitemap, priority, and change frequency.
Schema type: pick a structured-data type (e.g. Product) to emit the matching JSON-LD and fill the type-specific fields.

A “Start from template…” dropdown offers body-text presets (the landing layout, key-benefit lists, etc.); applying one replaces the current body content, with a confirm dialog.

Hierarchy

Pages nest: each page can have a parent, and the built URL is the full parent chain (e.g. /en/about/philosophy/). The admin list and the page View links resolve those nested paths, using the actual slug chain, including per-language localized slugs.

A couple of structural rules worth knowing:

Unpublishing or scheduling a parent governs only that page; each child is its own publish decision.
Deleting a parent doesn’t cascade; the children keep existing, just with the parent reference cleared.

Templates

Each page selects a template (default page.tt). The dropdown lists every page-appropriate template the system can find: core template files plus the files in your active theme, deduplicated, and it always keeps the page’s currently assigned template listed, even if its home theme is inactive, so a routine re-save can’t accidentally swap the template to the alphabetical-first option.

Slugs and language

Slugs are unique per language: the same slug may exist for an English page and its Spanish edition. Under the hood, so the elements that read that data are safe when you edit things twice: deleting content does NOT free the slug immediately: trash removes pages from availability but keeps identity in the slug uniqueness set until permanent deletion.

When you change a slug, the next build generates automatic redirects from the old URLs so visitors and search engines aren’t stranded. The redirect rules land in the redirects screen, where you can delete a rule if the old address shouldn’t redirect.

Pages are referenced by their slug + language combination, and the admin’s view/preview links always compute the same nested URLs the builder does, so what you see in the admin URL is what ships.

Privacy-protected pages

Pages support password protection: set a password and the page drops out of built listings and the sitemap so it doesn’t leak; the page is only discoverable if you link or share it directly. Every page also supports a preview token: a generated link that shows a draft or unpublished page without requiring sign-in.

Before publishing

Pages default to draft; non-admins don’t publish without approval if that’s enabled in Settings → Workflow.
Review, schedule, and sticky workflows all live in the same editor panel. Pages default to drafts; the build’s SEO report is the pre-publish safety net; it counts pages with empty or duplicate meta descriptions and empty canonical URLs so you can fix them before they go live.
The static build reports pages with empty or duplicate meta descriptions and empty canonical URLs as SEO issues, so check the build report before pushing live.
