# Create and publish changelog entries

> Write draft and published changelog posts to announce what you have shipped.

Changelog entries tell customers what shipped. Create drafts while you write, then publish when you are ready for the portal.

## Open Changelog

1. Sign in at [app.projectecho.io](https://app.projectecho.io).
2. Select **Changelog** in the sidebar.
3. Filter by **Published** or **Draft** as needed.

## Create an entry

1. Start a new changelog entry.
2. Write a clear title and body focused on customer value—what changed and why it matters.
3. Set:

* **Author** — The teammate credited on the post
* **Publication date** — When the entry should show as published
* **URL slug** — The path segment used on the portal entry page
* **Published** — Switch on when the post should go live; leave off for drafts

4. Optionally link completed requests (see [Link changelog posts to requests](https://docs.projectecho.io/)).
5. Save. Delete the entry from the editor if you need to remove it entirely.

## Show changelog on the portal

1. Go to **Settings → Feedback portal → Visibility**.
2. Enable **Show the changelog tab**.
3. Optionally customize **Changelog tab title** under **Design**.

Customers open your portal (`https://YOURSUBDOMAIN.projectecho.io`) and browse published entries. Drafts stay in the staff app only.

## Writing tips

* One theme per entry beats a long mixed list.
* Link the completed requests that drove the release.
* Publish close to the real ship date so the roadmap and changelog stay aligned.
