# Change widget status

Widget status controls **whether the widget appears on your store**.

* **Active** → Widget can show on your storefront
* **Draft** → Widget is hidden and will not show

#### 🛠️ Set a widget to Active

1. Go to the app > click **Widgets**
2. Tick on the checkbox of the widget you want to publish
3. Click **Active** (top-right).

✅ **Result**\
The widget is now live (as long as placement and theme setup are correct).

***

#### 🛠️ Set a widget to Draft

1. Go to **Widgets**.
2. Select the widget you want to hide.
3. Click **Disable**.

✅ **Result**\
The widget will no longer appear on your store, but all settings are saved.

💡 **Tip**\
Use **Draft** when:

* You want to pause a widget temporarily
* You are testing different widgets
* You plan to edit it later
