Publishing content updates
==========================

Updated 3 months ago

   Content updates require validation through a number of colleague-reviewed states before they are published. This is similar to the workflow process required for [publishing a project](/articles/9493440652431-Creating-and-publishing-a-project).

The publishing workflow is dependent on both your internal workflow and your user roles and permissions. A user role has associated publishing permissions and controls what you can publish and what status you can change a content update to. For more information about [user roles](/articles/9493366880015-User-roles).

Publish content changes
-----------------------

If you are an internal user with the appropriate permissions, you will be able to publish changes that have been made to project pages.

When publishing content updates, you have two options:

- Publish now: instant publishing of content updates, or
- Schedule to publish later: scheduled publishing of content updates on a particular date in the future

To publish changes made on a specific project page:

1. Navigate to the page you want to edit, then click **Edit**.
2. Make the content changes.
3. Click **Publish.**
4. A pop-up window will appear with the two different publishing options. Click **Publish now** if you would like your changes to be published straight away. Click **Schedule to publish later** and fill in the publishing date and time in the **Publishing schedule field**, if you prefer to publish at a later stage.
5. Once you have finished, click **Confirm**.
6. In case you selected the Publish now option, your content changes will be published straight away.
7. In case you selected the Publishing schedule field, your content changes are scheduled for publishing on the set date. That content will remain under the status **Approved** until content has been published.

1. Navigate to project you would like to see the publishing schedule of.
2. On the project overview page, click the **three dots** next to the Frontend button.
3. From the dropdown, click **Publishing schedule**.
4. This provides you with a list overview of all content updates that are scheduled for publishing.
