A Quick Publish<\/strong> only updates your static site with the latest content published or updated since the last publish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is great for publishing your latest content to your static site…quickly!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can find the Quick Publish<\/strong> option in the following four places:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1<\/strong>. In the Elementor Editor: <\/strong>From the Elementor Editor, mouse over the Static Publish<\/strong> button in the side panel, select the Preview<\/strong> or Live environment<\/strong>, and click Quick Publish to…<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

2. In the Static Publish menu in the WordPress admin toolbar:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

From the admin toolbar in WordPress, you can select which Environment you wish to publish to (Static Preview<\/strong> or Live Environment<\/strong>), and then click the Quick Publish<\/strong> option.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

3<\/strong>. From the side panel in the WordPress Block Editor:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

4<\/strong>. From the Admin bar side menu: Static Site > Publish Options:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Select the Environment you wish to publish to Live Environment<\/strong> or Preview Environment<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Under Quick Publish<\/strong>, click the blue Publish to…<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

    Quick Publish will update the following content on your static site:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • New or edited Posts (including Custom Post Types)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • New or edited Pages<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Related categories (because of a new post in that category)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Related tags (because of a new post with that tag)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Related taxonomies (because of a new post in that taxonomy)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Sitemap<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Main RSS feed (\/feed)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      When not to use a quick publish:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

      Since only a few pages get published during a quick publish, you shouldn’t use it for the following scenarios:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        \n
      • Changes to the Navigation Menu<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Changes to the Sidebar<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Changes to the Footer<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Switching themes<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Changes to any site-wide elements<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Adding a new plugin that affects every page of your site<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • After migrating a site<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        How does Quick Publish compare to other publishes?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

        There are three publishing options, Selective Publish<\/a>, Quick Publish<\/strong>, and Full Publish<\/a>. The table below shows what will be published when using each of these options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

        Knowing your best publishing option will allow you to publish as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
