Scheduling page versions

Schedule page versions to automatically publish them for a specified duration.

You can schedule a page version to be published at specified times. Scheduling a page version determines from and until when the page version is published. For example, you can schedule a page version dedicated to the festive season or a page version dedicated to a one-day-only sale promotion.

The time used for scheduling the page version is based on your computer time. If you want to schedule a page version for a Country in a different time zone, you will need to calculate the corresponding time of your computer. For example, if you want a page version to be published at 13:00 CET and your computer time is GMT, you must schedule it for 12:00 GMT.

Schedule a page version

  1. From the Studio home page or from the left menu, go to Site builder.

  2. Use the page folder list and the status sections to navigate to the page version to be scheduled.

  3. Hold the pointer over the page version, then click the More icon.

  4. Select Schedule: the Schedule page version dialog opens.

    The Schedule page version dialog with the From and To fields and the Cancel and Schedule buttons.

  5. In the From field, select the date and time on which the page version will be published. If you don't select it, the page version will be published immediately.

  6. In the To field, select the date and time until which the page version will be published. If you don't select it, the page version will be published until deleted manually.

  7. Click Schedule: the page version is saved in the Scheduled section.

    If two or more page versions in the Scheduled section have the same locale settings and are scheduled for the same date and time, the first page version from the top will be published.
    To change the ranking of page versions, hover the pointer over them and click the up/down arrows to move them.
