Publishing and Trash

Every record is in one of three states:

Status Shown in lists Visible on the site
Published Yes Yes
Draft Yes (under the Draft filter) No
Trash No No

Change the status in the Publish box and click Update. The filter counts at the top of the list update immediately.

Two ways:

  • the Trash row action in the list table, or
  • Move to Trash in the Publish box of the edit screen.

Trash is a soft delete. The record is kept and simply hidden from lists — its status becomes trash. Nothing is destroyed, and the URL stops being generated on the next build.

  1. Tick the checkboxes for the rows you want.
  2. Choose Move to Trash under Bulk actions.
  3. Click Apply.

Content changes are stored in the site’s database straight away. The public Astro site picks them up on its next build, so a change can take a build cycle to appear on the live URL.
