To enable or disable a web page, follow these simple steps:

Enabling a Page

  1. Navigate to the Page Panel
  2. Click on the desired page to access settings
  3. Turn the "Enable Page" toggle on
  4. Click Save

Disabling a Page

  1. Navigate to the Page Panel
  2. Click on the desired page to access settings
  3. Turn the "Enable Page" toggle off
  4. Click Save

Important Notes

  • New pages are enabled by default
  • Disabled pages remain visible in the page panel when logged in but are hidden from visitors and search engines
  • Disabling a collection page affects all items within it
  • Store pages: If disabled, existing cart items can still be purchased unless individual products are also hidden
  • Portfolio subpages cannot be disabled individually
  • Dropdown menus cannot be disabled directly

Alternative Ways to Hide Content

Instead of disabling a page, you can:

  • Move it to the Links None section to hide from navigation
  • Add a password to restrict access
  • Use a noindex tag to hide from search engines

Automatic Page Disabling

Pages may be automatically disabled when:

  • Importing content from other services
  • Exceeding page limits on certain payment plans

For Store Pages

To completely prevent purchases when disabling a store page:

  1. Disable the main store page
  2. Hide individual products to remove them from existing customer carts

This method ensures complete control over page visibility while maintaining site functionality.
