Why does a page or line not show on my invitation?

By Nimanto 1 min read

In short

A blank line leaves the invitation, a page of optional details leaves when none of its lines is filled, and photo, Where to stay and Gift registry pages stay hidden until they have content. Pages such as Good to know start switched off; switch them on under Update invitation details.

Designs never print sample text nobody asked for. That is why a page or line can be in the design yet not on your invitation.

The rules

  • A blank optional line leaves the invitation, together with its label. Fill it in and it comes back where the design had it.
  • A page of optional details (gifts, travel, a hashtag, your story) leaves when none of its lines is filled.
  • A photo page or gallery stays away from guests until you add a photo.
  • Where to stay and Gift registry are never shown while empty.
  • Pages that start switched off, such as Good to know or Our story, are offered off in the create form; switch them on when you want them. The catalogue preview still shows them with sample lines, so you see the whole design before choosing.
  • Pages the occasion does not carry are left out of every design of that occasion, and pages marked Always on, such as the cover and sharing, cannot be switched off.

Show a page or line

  1. Open the invitation from your dashboard and choose Update invitation details.
  2. On More details, find the page and switch it on if it is folded to "Left out of the invitation".
  3. Fill in at least one line, add a place or a gift list, or on Photos upload a photo.
  4. Choose Save. On a live invitation, publish again.

An optional line you left blank earlier is kept aside and still offered here, so switching on Good to know later gives you its lines to fill. See Blank lines kept aside.

Hide a page

Switch it off on the same step, or on Pages & alerts, which lists every page in the order guests scroll through it. A line you empty leaves by itself.
