DESCRIPTION
  See 'Which Experience Cloud Template Should I Use?' in Salesforce Help for more information about the different
  template types available for Experience Cloud.

  When creating a site with the Build Your Own (LWR) template, you must also specify the AuthenticationType value using
  the format templateParams.AuthenticationType=value, where value is AUTHENTICATED, UNAUTHENTICATED, or
  AUTHENTICATED_WITH_PUBLIC_ACCESS. Name and values are case-sensitive. See 'ExperienceBundle' in the Metadata API
  Developer Guide for more information.

  When you execute this command, it creates the site in preview status, which means that it isn't yet live. After you
  finish building your site, you can make it live.

  If you have an Experience Builder site, publish the site using the sfdx force:community:publish command to make it
  live.

  If you have a Salesforce Tabs + Visualforce site, activate the site to make it live by updating the status field of
  the Network type in the Metadata API. Alternatively, in Experience Workspaces, go to Administration | Settings, and
  click Activate.

  For Experience Builder sites, activating the site just sends out a welcome email to site members.

EXAMPLES
  $ sfdx force:community:create --name 'My Customer Site' --templatename 'Customer Service' --urlpathprefix customers
  --description 'My customer site'
  $ sfdx force:community:create -n partnercentral -t 'Partner Central' -p partners
  $ sfdx force:community:create -n lwrsite -t 'Build Your Own (LWR)' -p lwrsite
  templateParams.AuthenticationType=UNAUTHENTICATED

DESCRIPTION
  Each time you publish it, you update the live site with the most recent updates.
  When you publish an Experience Builder site for the first time, you make the site's URL live and enable login access
  for site members.

  Additionally, to send a welcome email to all site members, you must activate the site. (Activation is also required to
   successfully set up SEO for Experience Builder sites.) To activate a site, update the status field of the Network
  type in the Metadata API. Alternatively, in Experience Workspaces, go to Administration | Settings, and click
  Activate.

  Subsequently, each time you publish the site, you update the live site with all changes made to the site since it was
  last published.

  An email notification informs you when your changes are live.

  $ sfdx force:community:publish --name 'My Customer Site'
