# How MagicFront stops you from breaking a live page by accident

Say someone new on the team is making their first edits to the store’s live homepage — the page every visitor lands on. The nervousness is fair: one wrong click on the wrong page, and it’s live for everyone. Here’s what’s actually in place in MagicFront between a mistake and a broken page.

## Some things simply can’t be clicked away by accident

The header, the footer, and any widget marked as locked are protected from being selected by accident in the first place — so a stray click while scrolling past them doesn’t put them into an editable state. That same protection carries into dragging: locked widgets can’t be dragged out of place, and fixed cells, along with the header and footer, can’t be deleted at all.

## Deleting still asks first

For everything that can be deleted, there’s a confirmation step before it actually happens — whether you triggered it from the right-click menu on the page or from the layers view. Nothing disappears from a single click alone.

## The AI asks before it removes anything, too

When the AI assistant is the one making changes, deleting a widget still comes with a safety confirmation, and any destructive action gets a special warning rather than being treated the same as a routine edit. If the assistant is proposing a whole batch of changes at once, you can review the list, uncheck the parts you don’t want, and confirm only the rest — you’re not forced to accept everything it suggests just to get the part you actually asked for.

## Undo is always one step away

If something still goes through that shouldn’t have, Ctrl+Z undoes it, and Ctrl+Y (or Ctrl+Shift+Z) redoes it if you change your mind again.

## Publishing a homepage has its own guardrail

Because a store can only have one active homepage, MagicFront warns you if you’re about to publish a new one while another is already active — the one page a store can least afford to swap by accident gets its own specific check. Activating or deleting a page more generally comes with its own warnings and confirmations too.

## The takeaway

None of this replaces being careful. But between locked elements that resist accidental clicks, confirmations before anything destructive, a reviewable batch of AI changes, undo at every step, and a specific warning before a homepage gets swapped — the room for a genuine accident is a lot smaller than “someone new is editing the live page” makes it sound.
