5. Tick the item that says Hide Navigation. This will keep customers from seeing your other pages. You may also tick to hide the header or footer if you choose, but hiding navigation is important so it will keep visitors from visiting other pages that you are working on.

6. Now you can go back to the Content panel and locate the new page’s gear icon.

7. Select the blue Use as Homepage link to change your homepage to the new landing page.

1. Select the Content tab in the gray navigation bar.

2. On your official homepage, select the gear icon to the right of the page title.

3. Select the blue Use as Homepage link to change your homepage back.

4. On your landing/splash page, select the gear icon and toggle Page Visibility to off (gray).

1. Select Content in the gray navigation bar and locate the Page block that you would like to have as your homepage.

2. Select the gear icon and toggle the blue Use as Homepage button to set it as your homepage.
