Building vs Updating pages

Headless is different from the standard WordPress. So when you make the changes in WordPress, you need to start the building process to see the changes in Frontend (Next.js)

Updating page

There is no need to do building when you do

• content updates,
• changes,
• adding new blocks to the existing page
• Had changes in navigation

In this case, a simple click on the UPDATE button will do the work. The process can take a minute or two to create new content. You can use the visual backend and preview in WordPress to make sure everything looks how you want it to before updating the page.

Building website

It would be best if you built pages when you

• Created a new page or deleted existing
• Changed the URL of the existing page
• Updated permalinks

Building a website involves building all pages in Next.js. Because of that, this process is slower and depends on other building processes that are in progress for Standard plans.

We recommend you start the building process only when you finish all the changes and want the website to be built. But only if some of the conditions listed are met.

We suggest you do the build process after creating more changes, thereby speeding up the work process.
