Your church’s pages
A tour of the portal’s main screen: page cards, what Live and Unpublished edits mean, and every button on a card.
After you sign in, you land on your church’s screen. It has a card for every page, and below that the People on your team. If you help more than one church, switch between them with the menu at the top.
What’s on a page card #
| Part | What it tells you |
|---|---|
| Name and status | Live: visitors see your latest edits. Unpublished edits: you’ve changed something since the last publish, so visitors still see the older version. Not published: the page has never gone live. |
| Edited / Published | When it was last changed and published, and by whom. |
| Stats strip | Visits this week, button taps, the top button and a 14-day chart. Click it for the full tap stats. |
| 📥 Connect card answers | Shows up once someone fills in a form on the page, with a count of new ones. See Read the answers. |
Buttons on a card #
- ✎ Edit opens the page in the editor.
- ↗ Live page opens what visitors see right now.
- 📋 Install code copies the two lines you paste into your website once. See Put your page on your website.
- ⚙ opens the page’s Settings: its name, Advanced editing and the install code.
- ••• has the rest:
- Copy live link: a direct link to the page, for QR codes and tags. See Tap tags and QR codes.
- Rename: changes the name you see in the portal. The page’s address stays the same, so nothing breaks.
- Duplicate: makes a copy to experiment with, or to start a similar page.
- Unpublish: takes the page off your website. See Take a page offline.
- Delete: removes the page for good, and takes it off your website.
Delete can’t be undone, and anyone who taps a tag pointing at that page will see an error. If you just want a break, Unpublish instead, or publish a simple “see you soon” version.
If you’re “Stats only” #
People added as Stats only see the page cards with their stats and a Live page button, and nothing else. They can’t edit, publish or see connect card answers. See People and roles.
