Preview Draft and Submit

When you are done editing, it's time to save your changes. You'll do this in two steps: preview draft and, if the draft looks good, submit.

The draft preview

While you were editing, Cascade was automatically saving your changes in a draft. Even if your computer were to freeze up and shut down while you were editing, all your hard work would still be saved in this draft. The first step in finalizing your changes is to click Preview Draft.

The draft preview shows you what your changes look like in the context of the rest of the web page. This is a good time to look through your changes for potential errors. Depending on how you feel about what you see, there are four things you can do with your draft:

  1. Toggle between viewing the last submitted version and the current draft if you want to remind yourself of what the page looked like before your changes.
  2. Submit the draft to finalize your changes.
  3. Discard all your changes if you don't want to keep anything you just did. BE CAREFUL, discarding is permanent and can't be undone.
  4. Edit the draft to continue making changes.

Finishing up

After submitting the draft, your changes are saved in Cascade, but they aren't visible to your website visitors yet. Your final step is to publish the page.
