In content teams, not everything is stuck forever—sometimes a page or post just needs a quick follow-up before it can move forward. That’s why we built Parking: a lightweight workflow that lets you temporarily set content aside without disrupting your normal publishing process.
What Parking Does
Parking lets you flag a page or post for follow-up while leaving its current status exactly as it is.
When you park content:
- A new entry is added to the Parking list.
- A reason is required so the next person knows what to do.
- The page/post status does not change (draft, approved, published, etc. remains unchanged).
- The content stays in place and is not deleted.
This makes Parking a good fit for short-term coordination, handoffs, and temporary blockers.
Built for Real Team Work
Parking is designed around how teams actually manage content day to day:
- Works for both Pages and Posts
- Supports bulk actions so you can park multiple items at the same time
- Supports multiple parking entries per item, each with its own reason
- Lets you complete entries individually or in bulk as each issue gets resolved
Over time, a single page or post can accumulate multiple temporary blockers. Parking keeps them organized so each one can be tracked and cleared without losing context.
Parking + Audit Workflow
Parking is also connected to audit operations to streamline quality-driven follow-up:
- You can park failed items directly from an audit run.
- You can complete parking entries for passed items once rules are satisfied later.
This creates a clean loop between quality checks and the work required to resolve them.
Why This Matters
Parking gives teams a practical middle ground between “in progress” and “archived/deleted.” It keeps momentum by making temporary blockers visible, easy to act on, and simple to close out once resolved.
Best Practices
- Keep reasons short and specific.
- Create separate parking entries for separate blockers.
- Complete entries as soon as each blocker is resolved.
- Review parked items regularly to prevent stale follow-ups.
Parking is available in both the Pages and Blog workflows.
