If you do not have the option to publish a Content item, it means you might only have the permission to edit content, but not to make it public. This can be used in conjunction with the Content review workflow to make sure what what you create is reviewed before publishing

Note

You will not be able to save a draft of a Landing Page if the configuration of all blocks is not complete.

 

Difference between saving and publishing

 

The Save function allows you to save the current working copy into a draft to potentially reuse it later. The new version will not be published and will be invisible on the site or through the API.

Note

After saving the draft you need to exit the editing mode by clicking the X button in the upper right corner. Clicking Discard changes will remove your current draft, even if you had saved it before.

The Publish function allows you to publish the final version of the content object. As a result the working copy turns into a published version that is visible on the site and available through the API as a published content.

Future publication settings window

Choose a date from the calendar widget and select a time. The content will be published at this specified date and time.

 

 

 

 

Removing or changing publication date

 

If you had planned a future publication date and enter the edit mode of the same Content item, you also have a new option in the menu: Discard Publish Date. Click it to remove the previously selected publication date.

You can also click Publish Later again to set a different future publication date.
