Adjust content for one site¶
Change shared content for your site alone, in its fields, layout or moderation state, and return it to the shared version.
Needs Sites content overrides
Part of Sites content overrides.
Your site's version, the override, is what your visitors see; every other site keeps the shared version, and fields you leave alone keep following it. A platform administrator decides which fields a site may change (Content overrides).
Before you start¶
- Override site content on the site. You can override content you may not edit.
- The content belongs to your site, and another site is its canonical site.
Open the override form¶
- Click Manage overrides in the item's operations in the content overview, or under More actions in the top bar of its edit form. Both show only when you may override the item.
- In the row of your site, click Create override or Edit override.
In a preview of your site, the top bar offers the buttons it shows on the site.
The top bar of a content page shows its state for the site: Overridden, Shared or Canonical. Click Create override, or Edit override once the site has one. The content overview offers both among the item's operations.
Change it¶
- Change the fields marked (Original value); they then read (Overridden). Fields marked (all sites) belong to every site; this form does not change them.
- With content moderation, choose the state under Change to. Your site keeps showing its current version until you publish the override.
- Click Create override or Save override.
The form also holds your site's menu link, URL alias and sitemap settings for the content, where the site has them.
Where the content type allows a layout per item, Layout override in the top bar, or Layout in the Manage overrides list, opens Layout Builder for your site. It also takes a layout permission.

The top bar of a shared page with the Shared badge and Create override.
Revert to the shared version¶
- Click Revert to canonical on the override form or in the Manage overrides list, or Revert override among the item's operations in your site's content overview.
- Under Revert for this site, untick what to keep: fields, the layout, Menu link, URL alias, Sitemap settings.
- Click Confirm.
The revert touches the current language only. On the layout page, Revert to canonical reverts the layout alone.
Override revisions¶
Override revisions in the top bar, or Revisions in the Manage overrides list, shows your site's override revisions. Restore writes a new revision from an older one; Delete removes an older one.
The canonical site¶
The canonical site has no override, and the Manage overrides list leaves it out: its people change the shared version on the content's edit form.
