What you are seeing

Nobody was told that a publish failed.


#Why it happens

Capable does not send notifications of any kind when a publish fails. No email, no Slack, nothing.


#What to do

Check for failures yourself. Look for the Failed badge in the page byline, the Failed and Invalid lists on the Publishing space page, and the Audit Log for bulk runs. After any bulk run, make a habit of checking the Failed list.

Check the sidebar for the Failed and Invalid lists. The Audit Log, selected here, lists each bulk run.
