Edit a notice
Open an existing notice, correct its content and settings, then verify the result without unintentionally changing its status.
Find the correct notice
Open Noticeboard from the sidebar. Use Folders to browse by editorial context or List to see published, scheduled and draft notices together; open the relevant card.
Before editing, check the title, status and scope on the detail page. Edit is shown to people with Manage noticeboard access for that scope and for published, scheduled or draft notices.
Open the editor and check status
- 1
Select Edit
Edit notice loads the saved folder, content type, title, subtitle, body, media and settings. Wait until the existing content is visible before typing.
- 2
Read the current publication state
A published notice stays published and the final action is Update. A draft or scheduled notice shows Now, Schedule and Save as draft; the selected option sets the state when you save.
- 3
Check folder and scope
Folder controls where the card appears. Unassigned leaves it under All notices; an inactive folder may hide it from readers.
Correct content and settings
Change only the fields you need. TITLE is required; SUBTITLE (OPTIONAL) and the body complete the card. You can also change Category, folder, content type, attachments, expiry, pinning, visibility and available channels.
Review the Folder preview card. It updates while you type, but the preview does not save the changes and does not prove that recipients can already see the new content.
Before saving
- The title and body still describe the same notice.
- Folder and visibility suit the intended recipients.
- Links, attachments and linked content open the intended resource.
- Expiry, pinning and channels have not changed by mistake.
- For drafts and scheduled notices, Now, Schedule or Save as draft matches the intended outcome.
Save and verify the detail page
For a published notice select Update. For a draft or scheduled notice use the action that matches the publication choice: Publish, Schedule or Save draft.
The detail page opens when saving finishes. Check the title, content, status, media and Schedule. If you selected social channels, their processing is separate from saving the notice and may require further steps.
What you have achieved
- The detail page shows the corrected version of the notice.
- The notice status matches the publication choice you made.
- Folder, recipients, media and links have been rechecked.
Troubleshooting
Edit is missing
Check that you have Manage noticeboard access in the notice scope. An archived notice offers Restore or Duplicate instead of Edit.
The draft became public
When you edit a draft, the editor initially offers Now. Select Save as draft before saving if you do not want to publish it.
The correction is missing from the detail page
The preview updates without saving. Reopen the editor, apply the correction again and select Update, Publish, Schedule or Save draft.
I cannot change the attachment type
Remove the existing media before selecting an incompatible type, then add the new file or link and save.
