The short answer
That's by design. Each time you publish, Lovable deploys a snapshot of your project to your live URL, and later changes aren't pushed live automatically. To update the live site, click Publish, then Publish changes. The upside: you can keep editing without changing what your users see.
What to do
- Test the change in the editor first.
- When it works, click Publish, then Publish changes.
