Automatic transition from old plan to new plan will occur sequentially at the next renewal timing for each project.
Note: Old plans that are due for renewal between December 1, 2024, and March 31, 2025, will be renewed under the old plan unless manually changed. If you choose to wait for automatic renewal after that, the automatic transition to the new plan will occur at the next renewal timing between December 1, 2025, and March 31, 2026.

Plan Migration
Q. Can I manually switch to the new plan before automatic migration?
Q. Can I manually switch to the new plan before automatic migration?
A. Yes, it's possible. After the new plans become available on December 1, 2024, you can manually switch to a new plan at any time up until your project's next renewal date.
When migrating manually, you have the option to select a plan other than the automatic migration option. Just ensure that all items, except the CMS model count and redirects, fall within the limits of the new plan.
If no manual plan switch is performed during this period, your plan will be automatically migrated to the auto-selected plan at the next renewal.
Important correction:
Old information (incorrect):
You needed to adjust your project's page count and CMS model numbers to fit within the new plan limits before signing up.
New information (correct):
For existing projects, you'll be able to continue using your current number of models without being restricted by the new plan limits. We'll provide more detailed specifications soon.
Additional information:
We have changed the description of the period during which manual plan switches are possible from "until March 31, 2025" to "during the period up to each project's next renewal timing." (Last Updated: October 16, 2024)
Added information on the conditions for manual migration to a plan other than the automatic migration option. (Last Updated: October 30, 2024)
Q. What qualifies as an "existing project" that won't be subject to model number restrictions?
Q. What qualifies as an "existing project" that won't be subject to model number restrictions?
A. The definition varies depending on your project's subscription plan:
Legacy Paid Plan
Projects subscribed to a legacy paid plan before December 1, 2024
Applies regardless of whether the site is published or not
Legacy Free Plan
Projects that were published before November 30, 2024, and remain published at the time of migration
These "existing projects" can continue using their current models without being affected by the new plan restrictions. While you're still on the old plan, there are no restrictions on adding models, even after we start offering new plans.If your model count exceeds the limit of your new plan when you migrate, here's what you need to know:
You can continue using models created before migration, regardless of the new plan's limits.
Even if you exceed the model limit in the new plan, you can still add new models. However, you won’t be able to publish or schedule items within that model. If you want to use the added model, please either delete other models to stay within the limit or unpublish all items in other models.
Even if you delete existing models, you can't add new ones until you're under the new plan's limit.
Additional Information
We've added information about the Legacy Free Plan. (Last updated: November 8, 2024)
We updated our policy on adding models when exceeding the limit as follows (Update date: October 31, 2024).
New Policy:
If you exceed the model limit in the new plan, you can add new models, but items within those models cannot be published or scheduled for publication. You can still edit or delete existing models.
Previous Policy:
If you exceeded the model limit in the new plan, you could not add further models and were only able to edit or delete existing models.
Q. How are the remaining contract period and price differences handled when migrating to a new plan while the existing plan's contract period is still valid?
Q. How are the remaining contract period and price differences handled when migrating to a new plan while the existing plan's contract period is still valid?
A. It depends on the situation.
In case of manual switch:
When migrating to a new plan that is more expensive than the old plan, similar to the current plan upgrade process, a new contract will start at the time of plan migration, and additional charges will occur.
When migrating to a new plan that is less expensive than the old plan, similar to the current plan downgrade process, the contract will switch to the new plan at the expiration of the existing contract (automatic renewal timing). There will be no change in the contract date or refund processing.
In case of automatic migration:
For both upgrades and downgrades, the migration will occur at the expiration of the old plan (automatic renewal timing), and the new plan will take effect. Therefore, we kindly request that you check the destination plan on the dashboard before the automatic migration is executed.
What criteria are used to select the automatic migration destination plan?
What criteria are used to select the automatic migration destination plan?
A. Based on your project usage as of November 30, 2024, an automatic migration plan will be selected according to the criteria below. This selected plan will be displayed on your project dashboard starting December 1, 2024.
Manual Migration Before Automatic Migration
Beginning April 1, 2025, automatic migration will occur for each project at the time of its next renewal. However, you also have the option to switch plans manually before that date.
If you choose manual migration, you can select a plan other than the automatic migration option, as long as all items (except the CMS model count and redirects) fall within the limits of the new plan.
Q. When reserving a downgrade manually, do I need to make sure the CMS model count and other settings are within the new plan’s limits in advance?
Q. When reserving a downgrade manually, do I need to make sure the CMS model count and other settings are within the new plan’s limits in advance?
A. You can reserve a downgrade even if your current usage exceeds the limits of the downgraded plan. However, if the downgrade takes place while usage remains above the limits, restrictions may apply.
1. Cases Where Functionality Restrictions May Apply
If the following conditions apply during a downgrade, your site will stay live, and you’ll still be able to make updates. However, there will be limitations on certain functions.
If the CMS model count exceeds the new plan’s limit
Adding new CMS models won’t be possible.
If you downgrade to the Personal plan or below and have redirect settings
Existing redirects will still work, but you won’t be able to edit or add new redirects.
If the CMS item count exceeds the new plan’s limit
Published items that exceed the limit will automatically revert to drafts, as before. For more information, please see the article below.
2. Cases Where the Site Becomes Unpublished
If any of the following conditions apply during a downgrade, the site will become unpublished. An alert will appear if this applies, so you can make any necessary adjustments before the next scheduled renewal date.
Exceeding the page limit
Using the password protection feature with the Mini plan
If the site becomes unpublished, you’ll need to adjust to fit within the plan limits or upgrade to a higher plan to republish the site.
Page Limit
Q. Why did you add a page limit to the new plans?
Q. Why did you add a page limit to the new plans?
A. While our Studio design editor has always had an internal data capacity limit, we couldn't accurately quantify it, which caused inconvenience for our users. To ensure you can continue using Studio with peace of mind, we've completely revamped the design editor's structure.
This allows for significantly more pages and lets us clearly state the upper limits.For Personal plans and above, you'll now be able to manage projects with much higher limits (150 pages or more) compared to the previous rough guideline of "about 80 pages"
Q. What types of pages count towards the page limit?
Q. What types of pages count towards the page limit?
A. We count the published pages displayed on the page panel. Redirect settings (settings used to forward to other URLs) and pages set as private are not counted.
Note: For the Mini plan, the 404 page can be created in addition to the basic two pages.
Note: Redirect settings are an optional feature available for Business plan and higher.
For dynamic pages and dynamic modals, we only count the number shown in the page panel. Pages that you switch to from the top of the screen don't count towards this limit.
Q. Do "unpublished" pages set with the page publication setting feature count towards the page limit?
Q. Do "unpublished" pages set with the page publication setting feature count towards the page limit?
A. Pages set to "private" are not counted towards the page limit.
Important correction:
Old information (incorrect):
Yes, we count all pages in the page panel regardless of their publication status, except for redirect pages.
New information (correct):
Pages set to "private" are not counted towards the page limit.
Q. How will Free plan projects with over 50 pages created by December 1, 2024, be treated?
Q. How will Free plan projects with over 50 pages created by December 1, 2024, be treated?
A. Free plan projects that have more than 50 pages created and published by November 30, 2024, will remain on the Free plan and retain their published status after the new plan is released.
However, please be aware that after the new plan is launched, certain restrictions will apply based on the new Free plan limits:
If you exceed the page limit, you won’t be able to republish or update the site.
To republish or update, you will need to bring the number of published pages within the limit or upgrade to an appropriate plan.
About CMS
Q. What does the model count refer to in the new plan limits?
Q. What does the model count refer to in the new plan limits?
A. The model count refers to the number of CMS models that contain published items.
How to Check Your Current Model Count
Open the CMS dashboard.
Check the status of items within each model.
Count only the models that include published items.
We also plan to improve the display method on the dashboard to make it easier for you to see the count of models that are considered in the future.
Q. What are "published items"?
Q. What are "published items"?
A. The number of published items refers to items*1 and collections*2 that have a status of either published or scheduled for publication.
To check the number of published items, open the CMS dashboard of your project, and it will be displayed in the lower left corner of the screen. In the image below, the number of published items is 17.
Items scheduled for publication are also included in this count.
*1 Items are the units of data created when using the CMS (Content Management System). Items can be published, unpublished, or scheduled for future publication.
*2 Collections are a feature in the CMS (Content Management System) that groups items together. You can group items from specific models and publish or unpublish them.
Additional information:
We have explicitly stated that items scheduled for publication are included in the count.
Q. Are collections included in the model limit count?

Q. How should I proceed if the number of models I plan to use exceeds the limit of the new Business Plus plan?
Q. How should I proceed if the number of models I plan to use exceeds the limit of the new Business Plus plan?
A. The approach differs depending on the timing of your plan contract.
If you contract or renew an old plan by November 30, 2024:
You can migrate to the new plan even if you exceed the limit. Even if you exceed the model limit in the new plan, you can still add new models. However, you won’t be able to publish or schedule items within that model. If you want to use the added model, please either delete other models to stay within the limit or unpublish all items in other models.
If you're entering into a new contract on or after December 1, 2024:
It may be possible to accommodate your needs with an Enterprise plan. Please contact our support team if necessary.

Q. Why has a CMS model limit been added to the new plans?
Q. Why has a CMS model limit been added to the new plans?
A. To ensure we can continue to guarantee the loading speed and stability of published sites across our entire service, we have decided to set a limit on the number of models after considering the usage patterns of our current customers. This limit also serves as a performance guarantee.
Moving forward, we will continue to implement improvements that make content management easier without relying heavily on CMS models. While this may cause some inconvenience to some customers, we kindly ask for your understanding.
