Hi,
I have a Layout Grid on the site that is an upcoming update, but I do not wish to publish it yet. In the meantime there are other enhancements that I need to make. So I made this Layout Grid to "Don't Publish".
But when I load the update live, this layout Grid is STILL being shown live.
What am I doing wrong here?

Uncheck Visible instead when you publish.
I got confused by this, too, but Don't Publish isn't quite what you think. From the online tutorial:
I got confused by this, too, but Don't Publish isn't quite what you think. From the online tutorial:
https://www.wysiwygwebbuilder.com/object_manager.htmlDon’t Publish Assets
The Don’t Publish column controls whether associated assets for an object are included when the website is published.
When this option is enabled, Web Builder does not publish the object’s related files, such as images, scripts, video files, audio files, or other media assets.
For example, enabling this option for a media player prevents its associated media file from being uploaded during publishing. This can be useful when the file already exists on the server, is hosted elsewhere, or does not need to be uploaded again.
This settng only prevents the associated asset files from being published. The object’s HTML and other page code are still included in the published website.

Ahh, that's a shame. Because between Desktop and Mobile version, there are certain assets that should be visible in the desktop version, but invisible in the mobile version.
oh well. Anyway, guess I'll have to live with unchecking "Visible" then. Thanks for the help, much appreciated!

The breakpoint visibility of an object can be set independently (I found this out by accident quite recently), so you can have the desktop showing the object and mobile not, or vice versa, if you wish.
