## Feature update: Changes to Publish option in Edit Program

## Previous interface

The options at *Edit Program > Information > Publish* previously looked like this.

![](https://changes.retreat.guru/hs-fs/hubfs/image-png-Nov-13-2025-05-19-21-3360-PM.png?width=331&height=160&name=image-png-Nov-13-2025-05-19-21-3360-PM.png)

The difference between *Publish*, *Draft*, and *Remove from public listings* was not clear.

 

## New interface

### Publish Status

Use the slider to set the status to *Published*.

When the program is *not* published, the slider is off.

When the program is published, the slider is on.

When a program is *not published*, it will:

- *Not* appear in public listings.
- The permalink (program URL) will be invalid.
- *Not* appear in the list of program pages.
- *Not* be displayed via the website integration plugins (like WordPress).
- *Not* appear in the Marketplace.

### Publish to

These options only have an effect when the slider is on. That is, only when the program is *published*.

If the slider is off, meaning the program is *not* published, these options will not have any effect even if they are checked.

Publish to Program Pages, Plugins

When the program is *Published*, and the *Publish to Program Pages, Plugins* box is ***checked***, this program *will* appear in the list of program pages. It will also be displayed via the website integration plugins (like WordPress).

When the program is *Published*, and the *Publish to Program Pages, Plugins* box is ***unchecked***, this program will *not* appear in the list of program pages. However, if you provide the program's link (the permalink or URL) to a guest via email or another means, they will be able to follow the link to view the program description page.

**Marketplace**

When the program is *Published*, and the *Marketplace* box is checked, this program *will* appear in the Marketplace. This applies only to centers that have already configured their software to list programs on the Marketplace.
