Editing a page
There are two ways to edit a page. You can edit the properties of a page, such as name, title, description and you can edit the content of a page, such as adding layout elements and widgets.

If you are editing a published page, the system saves a draft of that
page, but the published version is still visible on the webpage. To see,
which version is the currently published one, see Revision History.
NOTE: In page content editing mode, you can see a preview of the page by clicking Preview button in the toolbar. The preview of the page is not a fully functioning page as it will appear on the life site. Use it to get an overall idea of how the page will look like. If you want to test how the page will look like and work of the life site, publish the page and click Life site in the upper-right corner of the screen. For example, if you use the preview mode, links to content items do not work.
