What you are seeing

I edited pages in Confluence but the live site still shows the old content.

#Why it happens

Nothing publishes automatically. There is no auto-deploy, so saving a page in Confluence doesn’t change your live site. Visitors keep seeing the version you last published until you publish again.

#What to do

  1. Open your site’s Overview. The yellow panel tells you how many pages have changed.

  2. Select Update preview to rebuild the preview with your latest edits.

  3. When the build finishes, select Publish to promote the preview to your live site.

Found it? Good.
