Publishing a template means the template becomes available to your organisation's engaged users. This means engaged users can create Journals based on the published template. Before you publish a template, be completely certain that you will not need to change or fix anything later. Why? Once you publish a template, it can only be unpublished if there are zero Journals based on it.
Before Publishing a Template, we recommend you go through the [Template Editor Checklist][Checklist].
Click the more button (three dots) for the Template you wish to publish. Click Publish Template. A confirmation dialog will appear; if you are certain you want to publish the template, click Publish, otherwise click Cancel. You will notice a blue badge with the word "Published" appear on the template. It is now available for engaged users to use.
Click the more button (three dots) for the Template you wish to unpublish. Click the red Unpublish Template button.
If there are no Journals using this Template, a confirmation dialog will appear. If you are certain you want to unpublish the template, click Unpublish, otherwise click Cancel. You will notice the blue badge with the word "Published" on the template disappear . The Template is now no longer available to anyone and Organisation Admins may edit it again.
If there are Journals based on this Template, a dialog will appear telling you so. As a result, you will not be able to unpublish the Template.
