I am using a "Hide" checkbox function in my CMS admin and was wondering if there is a way to "preview" the page before I make it live?

Hi,

What you can do is set up a separate viewing page where you can preview posts before unchecking the "hidden" field.

To view only records that have been hidden you can use something like this:

list($listingsRecords,$listingsMetaData)=getRecords(array(
'tableName' => 'listings',
'ignoreHidden' => true,
'where' => "hidden=1",
));

Hope this helps.

ok, thanks - would I need to create a "preview" page for each individual page on the site?

Hi,

You would need a preview page for each section you wanted to preview.
