Staging sites

A staging site is a copy of your website where you test changes. When you list it, it can use your project’s API keys, and CMSKite tells search engines to ignore it.

Add a staging site

Open Website settings → General and find Staging sites. Enter an address like https://staging.example.com. You can add up to 5.

A browser on that address can then use your project’s keys. See Authentication for allowed origins.

What changes for staging

  • Every answer carries X-Robots-Tag: noindex.
  • JSON answers have seo.noIndex set to true.
  • A rendered head includes <meta name="robots" content="noindex">.
  • Page views count as test traffic.
  • Bot hits get a 202 answer and are ignored.
  • A staging request adds nothing to Missing pages or to redirect counts.

Server-side rendering

A server that renders your staging site sends no Origin header. Add this header to its requests instead:

http
CMSKite-Staging: 1

1, true and yes all work. The header can only take things away from a request. It never gives access.
