Made changes to Wide/Tablet/Mobile versions, but can‘t see any changes on preview

Website looks different in site builder and in browser

1. If you have some custom files except files which are published from builder in your hosting web root folder then make sure that your files do not intersect with generated files. The intersection can be caused by equal file names in web root folder and "sitepro" folder. For example the website may not work properly if both files exist: [web-root]/js/main.js and [web-root]/sitepro/js/main.js. In this case you need to rename or move to another folder all equal files like [web-root]/js/main.js.

2. Please open file ".htaccess" located in web root folder of your website. Delete (or comment) all the content (if there is one) between lines "#### PERSISTENT CONTENT ####" and "#### PERSISTENT CONTENT END ####". After that reload website in browser and check whether the problem has gone.

3. Make sure that you are looking at the same version in site builder website and published website - that is maybe you see "Desktop" version in builder and "Wide" version in published website. Try resizing browser window with published website to see how it is changed (if other modes are enabled in builder).

Can't find destination folder

If this error is thrown during publication then it means that builder cannot open folder where the website is meant to be published (usually the folder is "public_html" but it can differ depending on hosting control panel).
To fix this error just make sure that you have web root folder in your home directory in file manager. If you are not sure what folder exactly you need to create (or check existence) then contact your hosting provider and provide this FAQ message.

Custom HTML widget does not work

The problem may appear due to improper HTML code used in the widget. One of the common reasons is that non-HTML5 tags are used (like <gcse:search></gcse:search>). They should be replaced with valid HTML5 tags (like <div class="gcse-search"></div>).
