# Publications

The **Publications** section in PADS4 CMS gives you an overview of all published messages, both active and scheduled. From here, you can manage existing content, edit messages, and export materials if needed.

## List of Messages

Upon accessing the **Publications** menu, you will see a list of all created and scheduled messages.

Each entry typically displays:

* **Message Title**
* **Template Used**
* **Start/End Date and Time**
* **Assigned Viewer(s)**
* **Status** (Active, Scheduled, Expired)

You can scroll or navigate through pages to find specific entries.

## Edit a Message / Filter the List

To manage or locate specific messages more efficiently:

* **Filter the List**:
  * Use the search bar to filter by keyword.
  * Use drop-down filters (if available) to sort by category, date, or viewer.
* **Edit a Message**:
  1. Locate the message you want to update.
  2. Click on the **Edit** button next to the message.
  3. You’ll be taken back to the message creation screen where you can update content, dates, or assigned viewers.
  4. Save and re-publish as needed.

This allows for fast corrections or updates without needing to recreate the message from scratch.
