Last checked August 2026. Wix changes its interface often — if something looks different, the underlying steps usually still apply.
Step 1: Preview first
Click Preview and click through every page, link and form.
Step 2: Check the mobile view
Switch to the phone view and scroll the whole site.
Step 3: Click Publish
Top right of the editor.
Step 4: Open the live address
Visit the site yourself in a private browsing window.
Step 5: Test a form submission
Send yourself a test enquiry from the live site, not the preview.
Note: Republishing is safe and instant. Publish often rather than saving up a month of changes.
