When you unpublish your site, your current deployment is removed and the site will no longer be available. Any existing repository settings or content will not be affected.
Unpublishing a site does not permanently delete the site. For information on deleting a site, see [AUTOTITLE](/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/deleting-a-github-pages-site).

## Re-enabling a site that has been unpublished
Unpublishing your {% data variables.product.prodname_pages %} site removes your current deployment. To make your site available again, you can create a new deployment.
### Re-enable using {% data variables.product.prodname_actions %}
A successful workflow run in the repository for your site will create a new deployment. Trigger a workflow run to redeploy your site.
### Re-enabling your site when publishing from a branch
1. Configure your publishing source to publish from a branch of your choosing. For more information, see [AUTOTITLE](/pages/getting-started-with-github-pages/configuring-a-publishing-source-for-your-github-pages-site#publishing-from-a-branch).
1. Commit to your publishing source to create a new deployment.
