Aurora: Publish blog posts

When a blog post is reviewed and approved to be published, there are two possible scenarios for publication:

  • It is ready to be published and you can go ahead and publish it.
  • It requires a precipitating event, such as a product release or update, and needs to be published at a later date.

To publish blog posts immediately, click the Publish button. The blog post is immediately available for viewers to read.

Scheduling content to be published later

The scheduling feature gives you control in managing when your blog post is published in the community. This makes it possible to manage your growing inventory of content. When scheduling at a future time, you can also indicate the time zone to use. Follow the walkthrough below to learn how to schedule a blog post for publication. 

Note: If Content Workflow is enabled, you must submit the blog post for review and submit for publication before you can select Schedule for Publication.

Note: The tutorial below depicts publication scheduling when Content Workflow is turned off.

    Ursula There is a character limit for message subject and message body which is community wide. We are looking at increasing the default. For the time being, you can request to increase this limit with Khoros Support!

    We will increase it by default soon so you won't run into these issues, as long as you aren't attempting to recreate the works of Shakespeare. 😁

  • Is there a character limit for blog posts? We seem to run into some issues with longer posts.
