Edit a header in Frontend mode

Frontend mode displays Header Builder over a live page preview. It is useful for checking the header against actual page content while you edit rows, elements, responsive layouts, and header settings.

Live header editing in Header Builder Frontend mode
Header changes are displayed directly over the live page preview.

Use Select preview page at the bottom of the editor to check the same header on another page, post, product, or project. This changes only the preview context; it does not assign the header to the selected content.
