Pentarch Live Edit · WordPress plugin
We build it custom. You edit it yourself.
Live Edit is the engine inside every website Pentarch builds. Your site is designed and coded by hand, and you still change any word, picture or link by clicking on it.
What you can do on the page
Live Edit works on ordinary HTML, so it adapts to each design instead of forcing a template.
Click any text to type
Headings, paragraphs, lists and buttons. What you see is what visitors get, with the site's own fonts and spacing.
Click a picture to replace it
Choose a new image from the WordPress Media Library or upload one. Alt text is edited in the same place.
Change where links go
Click a link or button to change its address. Links to pages that move are repaired automatically.
Duplicate, move or delete
Hover a repeated item, such as a service card or a question, to copy it, move it or remove it.
A revision for every save
Every save is kept. Compare and restore an earlier version if something goes wrong.
Site-wide header and footer
Edit the header or footer once and it changes on every page.
Hand-coded designs, imported
We write each page in HTML, CSS and JavaScript. Live Edit imports it as an editable block, so design freedom stays.
Shortcodes inside designs
Forms, course lists and other dynamic parts sit inside the design and keep working while you edit around them.
Try it here
This box behaves the way Live Edit does on a real site. Click the heading or the text and type. Hover a card to copy or delete it. Your changes stay on your screen only.

From our code to your hands
We design and code
Each site starts from your brief and is written by hand, with animations, interactive tools and a layout of its own.
Live Edit imports it
Every page becomes a block that Live Edit understands. Shortcodes for forms and lists keep working inside it.
You edit on the page
Sign in and click. Text, pictures, links and repeated items are all editable in place.
Every save is kept
Revisions let you go back. We keep supporting the site after handover.
Installed on every Pentarch site
Thirteen websites run Live Edit today, from a college with a student portal to a car showcase with a 3D showroom.
Questions about Live Edit
Do I need to know code?
No. You edit by clicking on the page. Code stays with us, for when you want a new section or a redesign.
Can I break the design?
Live Edit only changes words, pictures, links and repeated items, so the layout stays as designed. If something looks wrong, restore an earlier revision.
Can several people edit?
Yes. Anyone with an editor account on your WordPress site can use Live Edit. Each save records who made it.
Is Live Edit sold separately?
Live Edit comes with every website we build. Ask us if you would like it on an existing WordPress site.
What happens to forms and dynamic parts?
They are placed as shortcodes inside the design and keep working while you edit the text around them.
