📚 Getting Started Guide

This walk-through takes you from an HTML file on your computer to a live page on your site.

Before you start:

Open your HTML file in a browser and check it looks right. If it is a single file, images should load from full web addresses that start with https:// and your CSS and JavaScript should sit inside the file. If your page comes with its own folders of images, CSS and JavaScript, you can upload the whole export as a ZIP instead. If you are not sure, read Preparing Your HTML: Images, CSS And Assets first.

Publish your first page:

1. In your admin sidebar, click HTML Pages, then Upload HTML Page. On an empty Dashboard you can also click Upload Your First HTML Page.
2. Type a title at the top, for example Summer Offer. WordPress turns the title into the page address, so Summer Offer becomes /h/summer-offer/. The title is for you and for the address. The name in the visitor's browser tab comes from the title tag inside your HTML.
3. In the Upload Your Page box, drag your file onto the area that says Drag & drop your .html file or .zip here, or click the area to browse for it. A green tick appears with your file name and size.
4. Click Publish. If you want to check it first, click Save Draft instead.
5. The Upload Your Page box now shows Current file with the file name and size (for a ZIP it shows Current upload with the number of files). Once the page is published you also see a green Live URL bar with a Copy Link button.
6. Click Preview Page → to open your page in a new tab.

That is it. Your page is live. Paste the copied link into your emails, ads or social posts.

Good to know:

• The file is only uploaded when you click Publish, Save Draft or Update. If you choose a file and leave the screen without saving, nothing is uploaded.
• One page holds one upload: a single HTML file, or one ZIP. For a separate page at its own address, click Upload HTML Page again.
• Visitors can only see published pages. Drafts stay private.
• You do not need to do anything to your theme. Your page never uses it.

Find your pages later:

Click HTML Pages, then All HTML Pages. Every page is listed with its file, size, address, a Copy Link button and a View → link.
