Editing Blog Posts

Edit a post

In writing mode, text inside rich text blocks can be selected and edited directly without triggering page-builder drag or selection controls.

Opening a post no longer pulls focus away from the title or shows the rich text toolbar before you click into the body. Click the body when you are ready to write; the editor keeps the caret near the clicked text, keeps slash commands inside the editor, and hides page-builder drag handles while you are editing the post body.

Type / while writing to add headings, lists, media, dividers, or a Code Embed. Code embeds keep custom HTML, CSS, or JavaScript inside the article, with a reserved height and a choice to load when visible or immediately. See Dynamic Text Widget for the full rich-text controls.

Draft behavior while editing

• Saved draft content now reopens automatically when you return to a post.
• The editor requests fresh post and draft data while you work, which helps avoid stale versions.
• If draft save fails, the editor now shows the returned error so you can fix access or validation issues quickly.
• If a save or publish attempt fails, Hiveality tries to keep a recovery copy when the post contains meaningful content.
• If a post draft changes in another tab or session, Hiveality tries to save a recovery copy automatically so you have another restore point before reloading.
• When edits happen quickly while a save is still finishing, Hiveality queues the newest draft and saves it next so the latest post content is preserved.
• Title, settings, featured media, and publish actions use the same shared-draft safeguards as content edits, so conflicts are surfaced before another session's draft is overwritten.

Shared draft editing

• If someone else is editing the post, it opens in View-only mode until they hand it off or you reload the latest draft.
• Use the collaboration status pill to see whether the post is in Editing, View-only, Waiting, Paused, or Conflict.
• Paused means the active editor stepped away during a shared-editing session. Their session can still resume editing if they return soon.
• Open the collaboration status panel to see who is here now, whether another session is actively editing or only viewing, and when someone was last active.
• Choose Request editing when you want the current editor to pass the draft to you.
• If you receive a request, use the checkpoint handoff option to save a recovery copy and pass the latest draft. Choose Keep editing if you want to stay in control of the post for now.
• Open the collaboration status panel to send quick notes, review short message previews, and dictate a message before you send it.
• Short tab or app switches keep your editing session for a brief grace period, so returning to the post is less likely to force a fresh handoff.
• If your workspace allows it and the post stays stuck in Waiting, use Force takeover to move editing access to your session.

Version history for posts

• Open Version History to preview Saved Draft, Snapshot, and Live Version entries.
• Draft changes saved through a connected assistant or Website API Key workflow create usable checkpoints without changing the post's live status.
• Restore Content brings back the title, featured media, and body content while keeping your current post settings.
• Restore All brings back the full post state, including categories, tags, CTAs, and other saved settings, into the current draft.

Manage posts from the list

• Use Search posts... to filter by title or slug.
• Each post shows its status: draft, published, or scheduled.
• Open the Settings menu to:
  • Edit
  • View (published posts only)
  • Delete
