Swapping out templates

Hi Everyone,

We have a landing page that we use to sign customers up for demonstrations on our website. We created a new landing page template that fits the page much better. I'd like to swap the templates out without any issues to the end user. What is the best way of doing this? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

Re: Swapping out templates

Suppose you have a landing page at /landingpage.html

During offpeak times:
  1. Clone the original landing page and apply the new template
  2. Edit the URL of the original landing page to /landingpage2.html
  3. Edit the URL of the new landing page to be /landingpage.html
If you have any domain aliase/redirects rules set up in admin -> integration -> landing pages, make sure they are pointing correctly to the correct detination as well.

Re: Swapping out templates

Or instead of doing steps 2 and 3 above, you could just use a redirect rule to your advantage here to swap out your old landing page with no downtime.

Just make your new landing page on the new template, then create a new rule that redirects www.landingpage1.com to www.landingpage2.com; this will take effect immediately and you won't have had to manually swap out the URLs on either page.  Just make sure to also update your triggers to react to the new landing page.
