# Publishing articles

Publish articles to your website, choose who can read them, and optionally send them to your newsletter subscribers.

## Publishing an article

Open your article from the [Articles page](https://convella.com/articles), then click **Publish** in the top-right corner of the editor.

**1. Choose your audience**

Select **Public**, **Members only**, or **Paid members only**. Paid members only requires [paid memberships](https://help.convella.com/memberships/membership-setup.md#paid-memberships) to be set up.

![Audience choices: Public, Members only, and Paid members only](https://mintcdn.com/convella/pBat-kSuSzw_lXD9/images/articles/publish-audience.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=pBat-kSuSzw_lXD9\&q=85\&s=d0f7b28f34c24e5985e56f447bc65557)

**2. Choose delivery**

Under **Delivery**, choose **Publish and email**, **Publish only**, or **Email only**. When you choose either email option, a separate **Newsletter** section appears below Delivery. Select the newsletter that should receive the article.

**3. Add tags**

Choose any [tags](https://help.convella.com/articles/tags.md) you want to use. You can select more than one; the first is your primary tag.

![Multiple tags selected, with Social Psychology first as the primary tag](https://mintcdn.com/convella/pBat-kSuSzw_lXD9/images/articles/publish-tags-sprouts.jpg?fit=max\&auto=format\&n=pBat-kSuSzw_lXD9\&q=85\&s=edea8b415a9b30536d77107836f64918)

**4. Review the social preview**

**5. Publish**

Click **Publish article**, **Publish & send email**, or **Send email**, depending on your delivery choice.

## Sending as a newsletter

Email delivery requires newsletters to be enabled and a newsletter with subscribers. Newsletters with no subscribers cannot be selected, but you can still publish to your website without email. You can manage these in [Newsletter settings](https://convella.com/articles?publicationSettings=newsletters).

For **Paid members only** articles, only active paid members subscribed to the selected newsletter receive it.

The email's **View in browser** link appears only when the article is published on your website. Links included in the article content remain in the email.

You can also send an article later: after publishing, click **Send as newsletter** in the editor. [Learn more about sending newsletters](https://help.convella.com/newsletters/sending-newsletters.md).

> [!NOTE]
>
> **Email only** sends a draft without publishing it on your website. For an already-published article, it sends the email without republishing or unpublishing the web article. An article that has already been emailed cannot be sent again.

## Updating published articles

You can [edit a published article](https://help.convella.com/articles/editing-articles.md) at any time. Changes are saved automatically in the editor, but your live website stays unchanged until you click **Publish changes**.

Updating the web article does not change an email subscribers have already received.

## Unpublishing an article

To remove an article from your website, open the **•••** menu in the editor and select **Unpublish**. You can continue editing it and publish it again later.

Unpublishing does not recall any emails already sent to subscribers.
