Resets

The Resets panel should be used with extreme caution. There are two reset options available on that panel. Use of these resets will restore global settings, including resetting current page settings. You will be removing, on a global basis, all changes you've made to the site via settings.

We recommend taking extra care and proceeding slowly, when using the Reset options.

Reset Current Page Settings

Use this button to reset all settings on the current page back to their default state. Once you've completed this action, you may want to publish these changes to your live site.

Clear all CSS/LESS cached data.
