Global Components

Learn how to make components global and ensure that changes are visible on all pages after publication.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

A global component allows you to use a component on multiple pages within a single project. Once published, changes are automatically reflected on every page where the component is embedded.

In the editor, global components are clearly identifiable. A “G” marks them as global components. A blue outline indicates that changes have been made but not yet published. A green outline shows that the current version is published.

Publish a Global Component

  1. Open the three-dot menu of the global component.

  2. Click “Publish.”

  3. After publishing, the outline turns green.

Important: Publishing a global component is done exclusively via the component’s own three-dot menu — not via the general “Publish” button of the page.

When a global component is edited, the page’s publish button remains unchanged. The component manages its publication status independently.


Insert a Global Component on Additional Pages

  1. Open the plus icon in the editor.

  2. Switch to the “Global” tab.

  3. Select the desired component.

  4. Insert it onto the page.

The “Global” tab displays all global components of the current project.

A global component can only be inserted once per page.


Editing & Updates

Global components can be edited on any page where they are embedded, since everything takes place within the same project.

When a global component is modified and then published, all instances of that component within the project update automatically.

It is not necessary to republish each individual page.


Deletion & Reuse

If a global component is removed from a specific page, this only affects that page.

The component itself remains defined as global within the project and can be reinserted at any time via the “Global” tab.


Header & Footer

The header and footer are technically global components.

They are not located in the regular content area of the editor, but in the “Top” and “Bottom” sections.

These components are system-defined as global and cannot be converted back into regular components. They can only be edited or published.


Difference from Shared Components

A global component is limited to multiple pages within a single project.

A shared component, in contrast, can be used across multiple projects within the same Company Dashboard.


Example Use Case

A global component is particularly useful for content that should appear identically on all pages of a project.

For example:

  • a unified call-to-action section

  • a recurring announcement banner

  • a project-wide download section

When the component is updated and published, every page automatically reflects the new version.


Tips & Tricks

  • Plan global components strategically for content with high reuse potential.

  • Name them clearly and consistently so they can be easily found in the “Global” tab.

  • Publish changes carefully, as they immediately affect all embedded pages within the project.
