Editing and extension
How the site becomes yours.

Yes, by updating the canonical schema and regenerating models/defaults, then implementing editor and renderer behavior together.
Compiled themes provide CSS, tokens, class slots, and assets. Preview and test the exact installed package before activation.
Operations and release
What runs behind the site.
No. New pages remain unpublished and noindex until the required approval and release steps are complete.
No. Preview suppresses submission; persistence and downstream delivery require separate authorized checks.
Domain setup depends on the chosen deployment. Verify host binding, TLS, canonical origin, robots, and sitemap on the actual hostname.
