Page I just published is missing from the Published list, or the dashboard counts look wrong

What you are seeing

A page I just published is missing from the Published list, or the dashboard counts look wrong.


#Why it happens

Every list, count and bulk selection comes from Confluence's search index rather than live data. Confluence needs a little time to index the new publish record.


#What to do

Wait for Confluence to re-index, then refresh. In the meantime, the page byline shows the true, live state. While the index is behind, it warns "Content not yet indexed. Data may be unreliable until indexed".

Capable Publishing dashboard with total, outdated and unpublished counts, recently published pages and no failed requests
