Content save options with Save and approve highlighted

  • Save changes - save the updated version of this piece of content. The content will be saved with a status of 'Pending', meaning that it is saved and available on the preview site, but if your page is published to the live site, the content will not appear. Content only appears on the live site once it has been approved.
  • Save and approve (recommended) - save the updated version of this piece of content and approve it for publishing on the live site. The content is set with a status of 'Approved' and will appear on the preview site immediately. When the page is published it will also appear on the live site.
  • Save as draft - set your content with a status of 'Draft'.  This means that it is still being worked on, so doesn't appear on the preview site. Similar to 'Pending' content, 'Draft' content will not appear when you publish the page.

5. Once you return to the section where the content types are listed, you'll see your updated content type with a new version number and last modified date.
