Website Editor: Publishing, Republishing & Page Access

Last updated: October 1, 2026

Where is the Republish button in the website editor?

The Republish button only appears once your site has already been published. Before your first publish, the top-right button says Publish instead.

  • Click Publish once to publish your site. After that, the button becomes Republish and you use it to push future updates live.

  • If you don’t see either button, it’s usually a browser issue: use an up-to-date Chrome or Safari (avoid beta versions), disable browser extensions, and make sure JavaScript is enabled. You can also publish with the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + P.


Can I restrict a page so customers have to log in to view it?

Not with a per-customer login. In a page’s settings (the gear icon next to the page → Set Access), the only options are:

  • Open to everyone

  • Password protected — a single shared password for that page, not individual customer logins

There is currently no “members only” option that requires each customer to log into their account to view a page. If you need to gate a page, use Password protected and share the password with the intended audience.

Good to know: password-protected pages aren’t accessible to search crawlers, and if someone opens the page and shares a direct link to a file or image on it, that link can still be viewed.


How do I move my blog to a different spot in the menu (e.g., under About Us)?

Your blog is a page in the site editor. To change where it appears in navigation, open the editor’s page menu and drag the blog page into the dropdown/folder where you want it (for example, under About Us). If you’d like help placing it, contact support@corksy.io.
