# Page

The **Page** panel appears as soon as you click on an empty area of the [canvas](https://docs.vivlab.com/en/editor/canvas.md), outside any element or section. It gathers the page's global settings: title, description, SEO, visibility, share image and management actions.

## Page

The **Page** subsection brings together the SEO information and the page identity.

- **Page title** is used both as the title in the browser tab and as the SEO title in search results. Editing this title also updates internal links pointing to the page.
- **Page SEO description** is the short description shown in search engine results.
- The **Google result preview** below these two fields shows live how the title and description will appear in search results.
- **Generate with AI** automatically suggests several title + description pairs written from your page's actual content. The more complete the page, the more relevant the suggestions. Click on one of them to apply it immediately, or on **Generate more proposals** to get new ones.

## Page settings

This subsection gathers the visibility and access settings.

- **Set as home page** replaces the page currently used as your site's home page.
- **Make the page visible**: if the page is hidden, it remains accessible only to you. Enable the option when you're ready to make it public. As long as it's hidden, a warning reminds you.
- **Customize the link name** edits the page URL (for example `mysite.com/about`). Use only letters and dashes, no spaces or special characters.
- **Protect with a password** restricts access to visitors who know the password you set. Handy for confidential pages or a private customer area.
- **Hide navigation bar and footer** removes the header and footer on this page only. Useful for landing pages or maintenance pages that should remain distraction-free.
- **Hide this page from search engines** asks search engines not to index the page. It stays accessible to visitors who have its link.

## Page share image

The **Page share image** sets the thumbnail used when the page is shared on social media or messaging. It must be 1200 × 630 pixels. Without a custom image, Vivlab automatically generates a visual from the title and a content image.

Click **Edit image** to upload your own (you can then **Replace**, **Crop** or **Delete** it with a click on the thumbnail). Deleting the custom image switches back to the generated visual.

## Duplicate or delete the page

The two icons at the top right of the **Page** subsection let you **Duplicate** the page (useful to start from an existing template) or **Delete** it permanently.

Duplication opens a window that repeats all the page settings: title (pre-filled with the " (copy)" suffix), description, visibility, URL, password… All the blocks and formatting are reproduced identically.

Deletion requires explicit confirmation (you must type **Delete permanently**) because the action is **irreversible**: the page is removed from the site immediately, the linked URLs become inactive and the publish history is permanently lost.

## Automatic mobile layout

The **Automatic mobile layout** subsection generates the page's mobile layout from the desktop organization. Click **Reorder elements**: only the mobile view is modified, the desktop view stays untouched.

## Page style

The [style panel](https://docs.vivlab.com/en/editor/style/index.md) at the bottom lets you set a background, inner spacing and a border for the entire page. These settings apply to the area around the sections, never inside.
