Properly update custom Classifications on your Expert site.

Classification behavior

  • Tags and Classifications do not automatically update on individual pages when changed or deleted.
  • When you delete a custom classification in the control panel, you must delete that classification from each page it lives on.
  • When you modify an existing classification tag (not to be confused with its label), you must update each page the classification lives on.

Custom Classifications do not have a Revision History, changes are final and cannot be reverted

Update a custom classification option

We recommend changing the classification label instead of the classification tag to avoid having to replace residual data on all pages.

Part 1: Update an option in the control panel

  1. Navigate to Site tools > Control panel > System Settings > Classifications.
  2. Find the list that contains the option you want to change. Do not edit the existing option because it will no longer be applied on all pages that currently use it.
  3. Enter new Tag and Label values in the empty text fields at the bottom of the table. You can come back and edit the new label after you have replaced the tag on your site.

Part 2: Update your pages

  1. Navigate to Site tools > Dashboard > Content Tools > Page classification manager.
  2. In the Filters section, select the option you want to change.
