Unticking a chip stops new writes. Old files stay until you Full Rebuild with Clear existing static files. Remember that and you skip a whole genre of “why is that old page still live?” tickets.
What this video covers
- Target Content Types, archives, taxonomies, Site Pages including 404
- Extra Archive Pages (pagination depth)
- Never Export These Paths
- WooCommerce cart, checkout, and account — hard-excluded
- Estimated Export Size, then Full Rebuild with clear when shrinking scope

Narrowing chips does not delete old HTML. Product pages freeze prices at build time if you export them. Carts stay live PHP either way — a frozen empty cart would be a mean joke.
