The Blog publish task is used to publish new blog articles and update the already published blog articles in case some changes were made to them.

Update Index vs. Rebuild Index

By default, when you click Start, the Blog publish task will update the index, there is also the alternative option - Rebuild index.

You need to update index of the Blog publish task in case you have changed the author, publish date, tags, categories, visibility of the blog article.

Besides, if you change any text on a blog article, you need to update index of the Blog publish task. The texts available on the blog article take part in search and must be indexed. This relates to the blog article title and short description, and some text content elements, like Heading and Paragraph, and also the Image content element in case it has an alternative text.

You need to rebuild index of the Blog publish task in case you have removed some blog article.
