Make changes to core

This page explains how to make changes to the core version of a channel or document that is part of a project in progress.

Introduction

When making changes to a channel or document in a project, the changes are applied to a special project version of that channel or document. The core version of the channel or document remains available and can be modified in parallel to the project. This is a major advantage of using the projects feature: being able to work on long-term changes to channels and documents without blocking the publication of immediate changes to the same channels and documents. For example, while one user is doing a major overhaul of a number of documents within a project, another user can still fix a typo in one of those documents and publish the fix immediately without being affected by the project.
