Publish and email
When you publish, Email subscribers is ticked and shows how many there are. Untick it to publish without the email.
A published post can go Back to draft, which takes it off the board, and be published again. Be careful with the email box the second time, or subscribers hear about it twice.
After it is out
- Visitors react with 👍 ❤️ 🎉 🚀 and comment. Comments are listed on the post's page in the admin, where the × deletes one.
- The list shows views and reactions for each post.
- To tell the people who asked for a feature, set the related ideas to Shipped as well. That email goes to their authors and voters.
How people subscribe
