📋 Overview

Content Genius lets you generate, edit, and publish SEO-optimised articles directly from the platform. Once your article is ready, publishing it takes just a few clicks — but the publish controls are located in a specific part of the editor that is easy to miss. This guide walks you through the full publishing workflow.

🗺️ How to Navigate to Content Genius

  1. Log in to your Search Atlas account.
  2. In the left sidebar, click Content.
  3. Select Content Genius from the sub-menu (page title: "What are we writing today?"). This opens Content Genius at /content/seo-content-assistant.
  4. Click on the article you want to publish to open it in the editor.

📝 Step-by-Step: Publishing Your Article

  1. Open your generated article inside the Content Genius editor.
  2. Review and finalise your content. Make any edits you need before publishing.
  3. Look to the top-right corner of the editor toolbar. You will see a Publish button.
  4. Click Publish. A publishing options panel will appear.
  5. In the panel, choose your preferred publishing destination or method (for example, copying the content, exporting, or connecting to a CMS integration if configured).
  6. Confirm your selection by clicking Publish again inside the panel.
  7. A confirmation message will appear indicating that your article has been successfully published.

✅ What Happens After You Publish

Once you have published an article, the following post-publish options are available directly from the editor:

  • Copy Content: Copy the full article HTML or plain text to paste into your CMS manually.
  • Download: Export the article as a file for offline use or upload to another platform.
  • Edit and Re-publish: Return to the editor at any time to update the article and publish the revised version.
  • View Published Status: The article card on the Content Genius dashboard will display a published indicator so you can track which articles are live.

⚠️ Common Issues and Fixes

  • Publish button appears greyed out: This usually means the article content is still being generated or a required field is empty. Wait for generation to complete fully, then try again.
  • No publishing panel appears after clicking Publish: Scroll up to ensure no modal is hidden behind the toolbar, or try collapsing the left sidebar to give the editor more screen space.
  • Article saved but not published: Saving and publishing are separate actions in Content Genius. A saved article remains a draft until you explicitly click Publish and confirm in the panel.
  • Can't find your article: Navigate back to Content → Content Genius. All generated articles appear as cards on the main dashboard. Use the search bar or scroll to locate your article.

💡 Tips for a Smooth Publishing Experience

  • Complete your SEO score optimisations before publishing to get the most out of your content.
  • If you plan to publish directly to WordPress or another CMS, ensure your integration is connected under your account settings before clicking Publish.
  • You can generate, save, and publish multiple articles in a single session — each article card on the dashboard is managed independently.
