Can I delete "extra" pages from a template on Webflow even if they don't appear on the website anymore?
Yes, you can delete "extra" pages from a template on Webflow, even if they don't appear on the website anymore. It's good practice to remove any unnecessary pages to keep your Webflow project organized and improve website load times. Here's how you can delete these pages:
- Access Webflow Editor: Log in to your Webflow account and open the project that contains the template you want to edit.
- Navigate to the Pages panel: From the left sidebar, click on the "Pages" tab.
- Identify the unwanted pages: In the Pages panel, you'll see a list of all the pages in your project. Locate the pages that you want to delete.
- Delete the pages: To delete a page, hover over it and click the "Options" button (three-dot icon) that appears on the right side. From the dropdown menu, select "Delete page." Confirm the deletion when prompted.
It's important to note that deleting pages also removes all the content and settings associated with them. Before deleting any pages, make sure they are genuinely not being used or referenced anywhere on your website.
Deleting unnecessary pages not only simplifies your project but also helps improve on-page SEO by eliminating duplicate or thin content.
Additional Tips:
- If you are unsure whether a page is in use or connected to other elements in your project, it's recommended to make a backup or archive the page instead of deleting it right away.
- After deleting a page, make sure to go through your project and update any internal links or navigation elements that referred to the deleted page.
- If you've deleted a page, but it's still showing up in your live website's navigation or URL structure, you may need to republish your site for the changes to take effect.
