If you already created a release, you’re probably wondering how to assign it to a topic. By default, a topic displays HEAD (the latest saved) revision of your topic within a site.
In this article, we’ll show how to assign a named release to a topic instead.
Assigning a release to a topic
You'll need at least one named release available. See how to create a release.
To assign the release to a topic:
- Go to Sites and choose a site you want to edit.
- In the Topics tab, edit the topic you want to assign a release to.
- Use the drop-down menu to select a release.
- Update the topic and save and publish changes.
Done!
Why would you change the release for a topic?
If you're using releases to manage updates, then you can assign a named release instead of HEAD. This way, you can edit and make changes safely while a stable version of your content is deployed. Find out more about version control.
