What you are seeing

I pressed "Save without rebuild" and my published pages moved anyway.


#Why it happens

Capable starts a rebuild whenever the saved settings change the hierarchy mode, parent page, homepage inclusion or target space on an already-enabled space. It does this whichever dialog button you pressed.


#What to do

Treat any Structure or Target change on an enabled space as a rebuild, and plan the timing to suit. This is a known defect: the button doesn't do what it says.

Publishing settings Structure tab with parent content, page structure, space homepage and the Update existing pages by title toggle
Changing parent content, page structure or the space homepage option here on an enabled space starts a rebuild.
