Editing a Page
To edit an existing Page, move your cursor over the Pages menu item in the vertical admin menu to display the Pages fly-out menu. Once the fly-out menu is open, click the All Pages menu item.
Alternatively, you can click directly on the Pages menu item and you’ll be taken directly to the All Pages screen.
Once on the All Pages screen, move your cursor over the the individual page you intend to edit to display that page’s edit options.
The available page edit options are:
- Edit: Clicking “Edit” will take you directly to the Page edit screen.
- Quick Edit: Clicking “Quick Edit” will allow you to quickly edit the page’s title, URL slug, publish date, author, parent page, page template and status (published, draft, etc.)
- Trash: Clicking “Trash” will delete the page and place it in the WordPress trash.
- View: Clicking “View” will load the full page for you to view/preview.
Click on the Edit link and you’ll be taken to the Page edit screen:
Once you are done making any necessary changes, click the blue Update button in the Publish metabox located toward the top right side of the New Page screen:
If you would like to preview your changes before updating the Page, click the gray Preview Changes button before clicking Update:
