Reordering sections

You can rearrange the sections on your page by dragging them or by using the Edit sections panel, which also changes the status and audience of several sections at once.

Hover over any section to reveal its editing controls. In the upper-left you will see the drag handle (a grid-of-dots icon). Click and hold the drag handle, then drag the section up or down the page.

As you drag, a thin blue line appears between sections to show exactly where the section will land when you release. Drop it in the right place and the order updates immediately.

If you have many sections to reorganize, the Edit sections panel is easier than dragging on the page.

Click the Edit sections button in the top toolbar (the checklist icon). A panel opens listing all your sections with their names, thumbnail previews, status, and audience. Each row has its own drag handle — drag rows up and down to rearrange the order, then close the panel.

Changing status and audience for several sections

Section titled “Changing status and audience for several sections”

Tick the checkbox beside each section you want to change. Shift-click a second checkbox to select every section between the two. The Select menu at the top selects all sections, none, or every section with a given status (live, draft, or archived).

Once anything is selected, a bar appears at the bottom of the panel with the same status and audience controls each section has on the page:

  • Status sets every selected section to live, draft, or archived. It reads Mixed status when the selection has more than one.
  • Audience adds or removes an audience on every selected section. An audience only some of them have shows a dash; clicking it adds that audience to the rest. Clicking a ticked audience removes it from all of them.

A section another editor is working on shows a lock instead of a checkbox and cannot be selected until they finish.

Changes made in the panel take effect in your working copy right away. They go live when you save or publish.

To move a section to a different page, hover over it and click Move to page (the two-arrows icon) in its controls. Choose the Destination page and whether the section should land at the Top or Bottom of that page, then click Move. The section keeps its content, status, and audience settings; only its location changes. The button is only shown when the site has more than one page.
