Saving and Publishing

What Save does, why a save can be refused, previewing, unpublishing and a post's history.

Saving

Saving keeps you on the post, so you can carry on writing after each save.

A save is refused, with the reason shown, when:

• a required field is empty, or
• the title is over its limit or under its minimum.

Fill or fix the field and save again. These rules apply to drafts too.

Previewing

Use the post’s preview to see it as readers will, in desktop, tablet and mobile views. A post that has not been published yet is shown as Not published yet.

Publishing and unpublishing

Publishing puts the post on your site. Un Publish takes a published post off the site again without deleting it.

Some post types start work in the background when you publish, such as uploading a video to YouTube or sharing to social channels. Until that work finishes, the post may not appear on the site yet.

Deleting

Deleting a post cannot be undone. The portal asks you to confirm first.

History

Every saved change is kept. Open the post’s details and choose View all history to see who changed what, and when.
