Content Publish Dates

The Publish Dates screen is where you determine when the new content can be seen.  There is more information about scheduled publishing and date preview later in this Add Content wizard, but if you're interested in reading it,  you could click here.

1. Set the Start Date:  this is the first day  the content will be visible.
   • If you don't choose a Start Date, the Add Content wizard will make it be the current date.  Content is published instantly when saved.
   • By selecting a date in the future, the content can be placed on the page, but it won't appear to visitors until the start date.  NOTE:  this is based on the U.S. calendar within the Pacific Time Zone.
2. Set Stop Date:  this is the last day on which the content will appear.
   • If you don't choose a Stop Date, the wizard won't enter one. The page will be visible "forever."
   • By selecting a date in the future, the content won't appear to site visitors until the start date.  However, the content remains visible to site users in Edit Mode.
3. Expiration Notice
   • Notify me of expiration   Check the box if you would like to have an email reminding you that the page will stop being visible (optional).
   • Enter the email address where the expiration notice will be sent.  If you don't enter an address, the Add Content wizard will use the email address of the person who created the content.
   • Days prior:  use the dropdown to choose how many days in advance the email should be sent.
4. Click "Next"  .  It will take you to the Visibility screen.  If there is no need to go through the rest of the Add Content wizard, you can click "Finish"  to exit and return to your working page.  If you decide against adding new content, click "Cancel"  to exit without saving.
