Publishing or Unpublishing a Shuffle Mode Topic

NOTE: This feature is available to Project Owners and Project Administrators on the Admin Dashboard.

Publishing or unpublishing a Shuffle Mode Topic works similarly to a Standard Topic, using the publish status toggle at the top of the Topic Manager.

However, a Shuffle Mode Topic has additional requirements before it can be published.

When Publishing a Shuffle Mode Topic

A Shuffle Mode Topic can only be published when the number of available Contents is equal to or greater than the number of Contents configured to be assigned to each Player.

For example, if each Player is set to receive 5 Contents, the Topic must contain at least 5 eligible Contents before it can be published.

Important: Once a Player receives a Content assignment, the number of Contents assigned per Player can no longer be changed.

Tip: If you need to publish the Topic before Players are ready to access it:

1. Set the Topic privacy to private.
2. Do not invite any Players yet.
3. Publish the Topic.
4. Invite Players or change the Topic privacy when you are ready for them to participate.

Content assignments are generated when Players access the Topic.

When Unpublishing a Shuffle Mode Topic

A Shuffle Mode Topic can be unpublished at any time.

If the Topic is used as part of a Topic unlocking rule or Achievement rule, unpublishing it may also affect related Topics or Achievements.

• Related Topics locked by this Topic may also be unpublished.
• Related Achievements may also be unpublished.
