Content Editor Webpart changes visible despite page not yet published

I have an issue with Publishing Enabled Pages on SharePoint 2019 Enterprise.

 

The admin of a site editing a page and than publish the pages when page is ready to be seen by the employee population. However, simply saving page (not publishing) allows users to see the changes.

I immediately thought this was a permissions issue, but checked and saw the standard users only have read permissions and nothing higher than that.

 

It seems that the issue only occurs with CONTENT EDITOR WEBPARTS. Script Webpart behave as expected. So the focus is why do content editor webparts show their changes despite not publishing.

 

Has anyone else encountered this issue before? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

 

The versioning settings are as follows:

Require content approval for submitted items? NO

Create a version each time you edit a file in this document library? Create major and minor (draft) versions

Who should see draft items in this document library? Only users who can edit items

Require documents to be checked out before they can be edited? NO
