How can i edit exist text or content in a Launch option in AEM 6.4?

[aarong88753552]

I discover that you can use Launch in AEM 6.4 to work on a page that you want to publish or promote later in AEM. When i created a Launch option and tried to edit the existing content I noticed that I could not edit or choose the "wrench" icon on any component. Is there a way to edit the exist content on a page once you create a Launch to promote or publish later for a specific date?

Hello,

You should be able to edit the launch page the same way you edit the content pages.

If the launch is already created, you can select the page for which the launch was created earlier, go to the References option in the left rail and select "Go to the page". This will open the launch page for you. The launches are saved under /content/launches.

I did that but i notice that i could only add components to the page not edit the exist components on the page. I could only copy exist components or add components.

Is it only happening with launch pages or the normal AEM pages too? Break the inheritance of the components and then see if the edit option is there.

Ok. I'll try. How do i break the inheritance of a component? Thought "design" mode?

To break inheritance, click on the chain icon in the Edit mode.
