How to Fix Spelling or Grammar on Your WIX Website

Updated: Jan 10



Typos happen ... even on well-built websites. The good news is that fixing spelling or grammar on a WIX website is quick, safe, and doesn’t require any technical skills.


This simple how-to list will walk you through the process step by step.


Before You Start


  • Log in to your WIX account

  • Open the correct website

  • Click Edit Site


That’s it. You’re ready to go.


How to Fix Text on a WIX Page (Step-by-Step)


1. Open the Page You Want to Edit

  • Use the Menus & Pages panel on the left

  • Click the page where the spelling or grammar mistake appears


2. Click Directly on the Text

  • Click once to select the text box

  • Click again so the cursor appears

  • Edit the text just like you would in a document


You can fix spelling, grammar, spacing, or wording right here.

3. Use the WIX Text Toolbar (Optional)


When the text is selected, a toolbar appears above it.


You can:

  • Adjust font size

  • Bold or italicize text

  • Fix alignment or spacing


If you’re only correcting a typo, you don’t need to change anything else.


4. Click Outside the Text Box


Click anywhere outside the text box to apply the change inside the editor.

WIX saves your edits automatically while you’re working.


5. Preview Your Site


  • Click Preview at the top of the editor

  • Read the text carefully to make sure everything looks right


Reading the text out loud often helps catch small mistakes.


6. Publish Your Changes


  • Click Publish

  • Your spelling or grammar fix is now live on your website
