Publishing news articles

News articles can be published via a publish plan or using Content templates to auto-generate publish plans. These auto-generated publish plans are inactive by default and must be activated for News articles to appear in the portal.

Before you begin

• Role required: sn_cd.content_manager
• Complete the steps to Create a news article

About this task

If you selected a Content template when you created the News article, the system generates the publish plans defined in the Content template.

Note:

If the Content template is edited after the system auto-generated the publish plans, those changes are not reflected in existing publish plans.

You can manually add publish plans, just like for other content types. For more information, see Create a publish plan for your content.

Procedure

1. Navigate to the News article that you want to publish.
2. Review the auto-generated publish plans and edit as necessary, such as to change the audience or publishing dates.
   The changes you make to publish plans do not impact the Content templates.

   Note:

   If you edit an auto-generated publish plan, ensure you select the Active option.
3. Click Activate generated plans.

What to do next

If you edit a news article after publishing it and want to change the publish start date, you must generate new publish plans.
