Add linked sites
Sites that share an organisation Id are treated as in a network. You may not always want to deploy a set of changes to all available sites. What sites a deployment instance can select from is set in Feature Settings.

- Click Configure.
- Scroll down to the Sites section.
- Toggle on one or more sites from the available sites.
- Click Save.
Deploy lockable objects
The contents of a lockable object must be in locked status to be deployable. if unlocked, only the unlock status is deployed. This is used to allow users on linked sites to edit content. You'll know when an object is deployable by the displayed Deploy button or link under Options. If your site uses Page Preview and an object is deployed before Publishing, it will be deployed in the Draft mode.
- Go to the locked object.
- Locate the Deploy button and click it.
- In the Deploy modal, select individual objects to deploy or toggle Select All.
- Click the Next button.
- Select one or more available deployment sites.
- Click Next.
- Confirm you want to deploy selected objects to selected sites, then click Deploy.
- A message alert will display the results of deployment. Check the deploy log if deployment was partially successful or failed.
