Once you’ve published an agenda, there may be situations where you need to force a republish to update elements not directly linked to the agenda.

It’s particularly essential when addressing issues like unpublished agenda changes, meeting stage misalignment, discrepancies in confirmed minutes, or links added after the initial publication.

Republishing the agenda will also create a new version of the Board Pack.

This can be useful for updating or resolving the following issues:

  • Logo changes

  • Organisation name changes

  • Attendee name changes

  • Copy of the minutes in the Board Pack

  • Copy of the Action List in the Board Pack

  • Missing agenda items or documents added after the first publication

  • Discrepancies in confirmed minutes that do not align with the Board Pack

To republish, go to the Meeting page, locate the Agenda sub-menu in the top right, and click ‘Republish’. Note: the meeting stage must be in the Published Agenda stage to republish.

A confirmation message will let you know that the new copy of the board pack is ready.

Note:

  • Republishing can take 30 seconds to a few minutes, depending on the number of requests in the queue and the number of documents in the board pack.

  • If the republish process seems to be taking too long, click Republish again. Occasionally the request can stall, and submitting it again will restart the process.

  • Select "Email Board Pack" if you would like to notify your Board Members

  • Republishing is ONLY available in the Published Agenda stage and only to those with the correct level of access.

On the Meeting page, the published timestamp is updated to reflect the new publication time and the person who published it. This step ensures that all updates have been successfully captured and are visible to participants.
