FAQs

  1. What happens if I remove a keyword from a watchlist? If you remove a keyword, all posts associated with that keyword will be permanently removed from the watchlist results.
  2. What happens when I add a new keyword? When you add a keyword, new posts will start appearing from the moment the keyword is added onward. Previously published posts will not be backfilled.
  3. Does editing a watchlist reset existing data? No. Editing a watchlist does not reset the entire watchlist. Only data related to removed keywords is deleted.
  4. Can I edit a watchlist multiple times? Yes. You can edit a keyword watchlist at any time, and changes will apply after you save.
  5. Is editing different from creating a watchlist? The configuration steps are the same. The only difference is that editing starts by clicking the pencil icon on an existing watchlist instead of creating a new one.
