Pages

Pages is where you build and manage every page on your organisation's public website. You'll find it in the admin sidebar under Pages. It lists every route on your site, lets you create custom pages, and gives you a visual editor for arranging content into sections.

Who can use this

Both admins and moderators can open Pages, create pages, and edit sections. A few things are admin-only:

• The Page theme override card on a page (using a different theme for one page).
• A handful of advanced blocks inside the Rich text editor — embeds (YouTube, Vimeo, maps), registration/interest forms, schedules, news lists, child-page lists and custom HTML. (These are different from the sections of the same name in the Add section menu — the News list and Form sections themselves are open to moderators.) If a moderator tries to save a page with a restricted block, they'll see "Block type restricted to Admins".

Saving is also locked for everyone if your billing isn't up to date — you'll see a warning banner and the editor's save buttons are disabled.

What's on the page

The main list has two tabs:

• Routes — every page on your site. Enforced rows (marked with an "Enforced" badge) are built-in platform routes pinned at the top; you can't delete them, but you can often edit or configure them. Your own pages appear below. Use the search box, or the Protected routes pill to hide the enforced rows and focus on your custom pages. A page that nothing links to — no menu item and no link from another page's content — shows an amber Not linked badge; use the sort control's Not linked first option to bring those pages to the top.
• JSON (advanced) — bulk-edit the title and status of your custom pages as text.

Below the list, the Section access card lets you restrict whole built-in sections (like Competitions or Nominations) to members or specific roles.

Step by step

Create a new page

1. Click New page (top right of the Pages screen).
2. Enter a Title.
3. Enter a Slug — the last part of the web address (e.g. coaches).
4. Choose a Visibility: Public, Members only, or Role required.
5. Click Create page. The page is created as a draft and you're returned to the list. Open it to add content.

Build your page on the canvas

The page editor opens in Canvas mode: your page is shown just as it will publish (with your real site header and footer), and you edit it directly in place.

1. From the Routes tab, click the Edit (pencil) action on a page.
2. Click any section to open its settings drawer on the right — changes appear on the canvas as you type. Rich text, image, list and form sections all edit through the same drawer.
3. Click the page title at the top of the canvas to rename the page in place — press Enter (or click away) to save the new name, or Escape to cancel. Hover the title and click the bin icon to delete it from the page (this turns on "Hide the page title" and applies straight away). A slim bar appears in its place with a Show title button to bring it back — or add a Heading section instead, which you can move and align like any other section.
4. Breadcrumbs sit above the title as a fixed block — every page shows them by default (except the homepage, which has no trail). They always stay at the very top: they can't be dragged or reordered. Hover the trail and click the bin icon to remove it (this turns on "Hide breadcrumbs" and applies straight away); a slim bar with a Show breadcrumbs button appears in its place to bring it back.
5. Hover a section for its toolbar: use the grip to drag it to a new spot, Edit to open the drawer, Duplicate to copy it, or Delete to remove it.
6. Hover between sections and click the + button to add a new section exactly there. The picker lists every section type — Rich text, Heading, Banner image, Inline image, Image gallery, News list, Sponsor list, Form, Members list, Events list, or Locations — and has a search box at the top: start typing (e.g. "gallery") and press Enter to add the first match. A new Heading section starts with your page's title as its text, and its drawer lets you set the text, the size (Large/Medium/Small) and the alignment (left, centre or right).
7. Use Preview (in the floating save pill, top right under the navbar) to check the page, then Save to record a version or Publish (shown as Update live on a published page) to make it live. A page can hold up to a set number of sections.

Prefer the old card-based editor? Switch the toggle above the canvas to List — both modes edit the same page and you can swap at any time.

Autosave — the timer in the top right

While you edit, a small floating pill in the top right (just under the navbar) keeps a backup draft of your work:

• After your first change, a countdown timer starts (2 minutes). When it reaches zero, the draft saves automatically. Click Save draft now to save the backup immediately.
• The backup is only a recovery copy — it never changes what visitors see. Publishing still happens with Save / Publish.
• If you leave without saving, the next time you open the page you'll see a blue banner offering to Restore draft (bring back your unsaved work) or Discard it.
• If another admin saves the page while you're editing, autosave pauses and the pill shows Edited elsewhere — reload to pick up their version, or use Save to overwrite it with yours.

Set the homepage

If you see a warning that your homepage hasn't been created, click Create homepage (in the banner, or the + action on the / row). This creates a draft homepage and opens it in the editor.

Add a sidebar widget (side sections)

1. Choose a Sidebar position (None, Right, Left, or Both) from the control above the canvas.
2. The sidebar column appears on the canvas. Each side holds one widget — add one with Add widget (Events list, Locations, Sponsor strip, or Recent news), or drag a compatible section from the main column into the slot.
3. Click the widget to configure it in the drawer, like any other section.
4. Note: a full-width banner image automatically hides the sidebar on the live page — the canvas dims the sidebar and shows a warning when that's the case. (In List mode, sidebar widgets are managed from the Side sections card instead.)

Adjust display, SEO and theme

In the editor, the Display options card controls title visibility, breadcrumbs, content width and spacing. SEO & sharing sets the search title, description, social share image and whether to hide the page from search engines. Click the Save page settings button below the settings cards to apply — these save separately from the page content.

Edit a built-in list's intro

On the /events, /news or /locations rows, use Edit intro text to add content above the listing, and the inline picker to choose the list's layout style.

Tips & FAQ

• Draft vs published: new pages start as drafts and stay hidden until you Save & publish. A green star in the list marks published pages.
• "Not linked" badge: this warns that visitors can only reach the page by typing its address. Fix it by adding the page to your menus in Navigation, or by linking to it from another page's content (a text link or button). The badge updates automatically when you save the navigation or the linking page. The homepage never shows it, and links to your own page from itself don't count.
• Autosave isn't publishing: the countdown in the floating pill only protects your work-in-progress. Nothing changes on your live site until you click Save or Publish.
• Renaming a path: you can change a page's title and status from the JSON (advanced) tab, but adding, removing or renaming the path (slug) must be done through the Routes tab to keep links working.
• Section won't appear? Check the page is published and its visibility suits who you want to reach.
• Related: set your colours and fonts under Theme and Branding, build your menus in Navigation, turn modules on or off under Features, and manage form submissions in Forms. Sidebar widgets pull from News, Events, Locations and Sponsors.
