Polish a draft help-centre article before it goes live — tweak the title, update the body, adjust individual steps, and preview exactly how readers will see it on your public site.

## Prerequisites

- A SupportPages project with at least one draft article in the Articles tab

## Steps

### Step 1: Open the Articles tab

From your project workspace, click **Articles** in the left sidebar under **Help Centre**.

### Step 2: Select a draft article

In the **Sections & Articles** folder tree on the left, click the draft you want to work on. Its title appears in the editor on the right, with a **Draft** label below it.

### Step 3: Edit the title

Click the article title at the top of the editor. Type your changes and press Enter to save — updates save automatically.

### Step 4: Update the introduction and summary

Click the introduction paragraph or the summary at the bottom of the article card. Edit the text directly in place; your changes are saved when you click away.

### Step 5: Adjust step content

Scroll to the **Steps** section and click a step title or its body text to edit it. Use **Add step** to insert a new one, or drag the handle to reorder steps.

### Step 6: Open the preview

Click **Preview** in the toolbar above the article. A **Help Centre Preview** panel slides in from the right, showing how the article will look on your public help centre.

### Step 7: Publish when you are ready

Close the preview and click **Publish** in the toolbar. Your article goes live on your help centre for customers to read.

## Tips

- Edits save automatically as you work — there is no separate Save button.
- Draft articles show **Preview** in the toolbar; published articles show **View** instead, which opens the live page in a new tab.

## Summary

Select a draft in **Articles**, click any field to edit it inline, use **Preview** to check the reader-facing layout, then **Publish** when the wording looks right.
