How to hide or delete a block on your website

Hide a block to keep it for later, or delete it permanently — both are done from the website editor.

Overview

Hide a block to temporarily remove it from your live website while keeping it in the editor, or delete it permanently when you no longer need it.

You can use it to:

  • Take a seasonal section offline without losing it

  • Preview the page without a specific block

  • Remove old content you no longer need

Hidden blocks keep their position on the page — unhide and they reappear in the same spot.


Before you start

  • You need admin access to the website editor.

  • The header, footer, blog header, cover and booking window blocks are fixed parts of every page and cannot be deleted.

  • Deleting is permanent. Hide the block if you might want it back later.

FAQs


What's the difference between hiding and deleting?

Hiding keeps the block on your page in the editor but removes it from your live website — you can unhide it any time. Deleting removes the block from the page completely and cannot be undone.


Can I recover a deleted block?

No. Deletion is permanent. You would need to recreate the block from scratch. If you might want it back, hide it instead.


Does hiding a block leave a gap on my page?

No. The block is removed from the live page and the blocks below shift up to close the gap. When you unhide it, the block reappears in its original position.


Why can't I delete the footer, header or booking window?

These blocks are fixed parts of every page on your website and cannot be removed. You can still edit their content, but the block itself stays in place.
