Directoryz

Unpublish an outdated listing deliberately

Unpublishing changes what visitors can find and what existing links do. The action should be connected to a clear reason and follow-up.

Directoryz editorial guide · Updated September 7, 2026

Put it into practice

Record the reason, review related navigation, and decide whether there is a relevant replacement. Avoid redirecting unrelated entries to arbitrary pages.

Worked example · illustrative

What this looks like

A discontinued integration may be removed from active categories while its former URL receives an intentional status or replacement.

Before you move on

What will someone arriving from a saved link understand?

Write down the evidence for your answer. If you cannot point to a concrete example, revise the work before treating it as ready.

A repeatable workflow

  1. Identify the current public destination.
  2. Test the new destination with representative pages.
  3. Record how visitors and editors will find the published directory.

Where Directoryz fits

Directoryz supports directory publishing, listings and custom fields, CSV imports, submission review, and workspace operations. These guides include editorial workflows you can carry out with a worksheet or your own tools. They do not imply that every audit, reminder, verification, or integration is automated by Directoryz.
