Troubleshooting

An archived record does not appear in lists or search

Why an archived record leaves the public site's lists and search, stays open at its own address and cannot come back from the archive.

Permission needed
Publish and unpublish catalogue records
In the panel
Catalogue Record

An archived record is taken out of the lists, the category pages and search on purpose. It stays open at its own address and can still be cited. This is not an error. It is the purpose of archiving.

Taking a record out of the archive

An archived record cannot go back to published. You can only add a correction notice to an archived record or retract it. Make sure of your decision before you archive a record.

Instead of archiving

If you want to take the record off the site for a while, do not archive it. Use Unpublish instead. An unpublished record returns to draft and can be published again. The difference between the two actions is explained in Unpublishing and Archiving.
