A round-up of what changed in C Building in September 2026.
Projects open on their console
Opening a project now takes you to its console first, instead of straight into the editor. Without waiting for the site to load, you can see and manage:
- its pages,
- its articles,
- its media library,
- its domains and settings,
- form submissions,
- and the way into its version history.
When you want to change the website itself, choose Edit to open the editor. Articles are managed here too, and appear on your live site once it is published. See our blog runs on C Building's own articles system.
An assistant on your projects page
Ask how to do something, what your plan includes, how many points you have left or how a build is going, and get an answer about your own account. It can also plan and start a new website for you, once you confirm. See meet the assistant.
Clearer builds that pick up where they stopped
- Progress you can see. While a website is being built, its project card shows how far along it is, or its place in the queue when others are building. The editor shows each stage as it happens.
- Close the page, it keeps going. Builds run in the background.
- Interrupted builds resume. If a build stops partway, the project card says it needs to continue building. Retry, and it carries on from where it stopped rather than starting over.
Build from an existing website
You can enter the address of a website you own and have the AI rebuild it as a C Building site you can edit. At first this was only for accounts we had enabled; it is now open to every account. Paste the old site's address into the create-website box, or ask the assistant on your projects page, and confirm the site is yours or that you have permission to copy it. It usually takes a few minutes. See turn your existing website into one you can edit.
WordPress imports in the background
WordPress imports, from an XML export or a WPvivid backup, began running as background jobs once your files were uploaded. Since October 2026, export/backup file upload has been replaced by moving the site straight from its web address: paste your WordPress site's address and ask the AI to move it. It brings over your pages, posts, categories and images and keeps your existing URLs. See bring your WordPress site to C Building.
A new name and a new website
Cloubie is now C Building, or 小C建站 in Chinese, and has its own website at cbuilding.ai, in English and Traditional Chinese, with plans, guides and this blog. Since October 2026 the site is also in Simplified Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese and Indonesian. See Cloubie is now C Building and cbuilding.ai is live.
Also on the blog this month
We explained the thinking behind the product and how to use it: why we built C Building, why we replaced our block editor, how points work and what to tell the AI.
