Two terms you may hear are "staging server" and "production server." Omni CMS is a decoupled system, which means editable pages and live web pages are two separate locations.
Everything you do in Omni CMS is on the staging server, and none of the changes you make (with a few exceptions) appear on the production server, the live website, until you publish them. This gives you the freedom to make as many changes as you want in Omni CMS pages without immediately affecting the live website. This is useful for:
- Creating web pages in advance of announcements or updates and scheduling to publish them on a specific date.
- Writing a draft of content on a page and sending it to another user to look over before publishing.
- Making changes to a page, deciding you do not like them, and either not publishing or reverting the page to a previous version.
