An overview of reserved slugs and how to change your URLs in the Pages panel.
From the Pages panel, you can manage your page’s general information, such as the page URL. Every site comes with utility pages by default, and some additional pages are created for sites that have Ecommerce and/or Users enabled. While you can change the URL slugs for static pages you create, these utility pages have reserved URL slugs (the part of a URL that identifies a specific page on a website, e.g., /404, /checkout, etc.) that can’t be edited or overwritten.
In this lesson, you’ll learn about:
Static pages include Ecommerce pages, User pages, and Utility pages. You can create new static pages in the Pages panel.
Every site automatically comes with a Home page, but you can add more pages (e.g., About, Contact, Team). The name you give a new static page will also be the page URL (e.g., domain.com/newpage). If you want to change the URL, you can do so from the Slug field in Page settings.
There are a few reserved slugs (slugs you can’t use) to prevent duplicate slugs, which cause redirect issues and bad analytics. If you try to use a reserved slug, you’ll get a warning indicating that the slug is reserved.
You can create folders to organize pages that fall under the same category. For example, if you have several different types of real estate pages you want to style separately, you can create a folder called “Real Estate” and nest your individual real estate pages inside.
To create a folder:
Folders can’t have the same URL as a Collection. If you already have a Collection named “Project,” then a folder can’t have a URL named “Project.”
For sites with Ecommerce enabled, there are 2 reserved slugs you can’t use for a folder:
Dynamic pages, also called CMS Collection pages or Template pages, give you the ability to design a page template and then dynamically populate that page with content from a CMS Collection. These can be collections of blog posts, team members, job postings – anything you want.
For sites with Ecommerce enabled, there are 2 reserved slugs you can’t use for a Collection:

For sites with Ecommerce enabled, there are 3 reserved slugs you can’t use for static pages:

For sites with Users enabled, several User pages are automatically created to support basic user functionality. There are 6 reserved slugs for User pages that static pages can’t use:
2 Utility pages are included by default on each site: the Password page and the 404 error page. Additionally, when you add a Search component to your site, a Search results utility page is automatically created.
Utility pages have the following reserved slugs:
You can change the names of these utility pages, but you can’t change their URL slugs.
