If you schedule a Product Hunt launch, can you edit it?

Question

I'm looking to schedule a launch, but I want to update the video and some info closer to the launch date. Is it possible to schedule the launch now and edit it after?

In my experience, I've encountered some bugs in the procedure for changing the launch page. Twice I added a new image to a previously created launch page, only to have the launch published on the same day! Luckily, I caught it right away or else it might have gone unnoticed.

If this happens to you, don't hesitate to contact support immediately. They have been extremely helpful to us in the past!

Yes, absolutely but there could still be some bugs in a process. Not all changes get saved so keep an eye on it :)

If you're launching in a month, you can edit your teaser or post.

@neri_raanani Hey, I think you can! As others have said, changing things can be a bit buggy, and I assume if anything could break something, it's a name change, haha.

But I just checked, and theoretically, it seems you can update the product name.

Answer

Yes, you can edit your Product Hunt launch, so don't worry if you need to make changes or updates to your listing.

Activating this thread in 2024 - is the edit experience less buggy now? Has anyone tried doing this recently - would love to know your experience with editing name/images/videos/descriptions now

Adding the Maker comment later after scheduling the launch is possible?

I'd like to join the discussion and pose another question if that's ok.

I am wondering if it is possible to change the name of a product after scheduling its launch. For instance, if we were to schedule the launch today, and it's only two weeks away, would it be possible to change the product's name a few days from now? Even after we have already set up the teaser ('coming soon')?

I appreciate any insights or advice, thank you in advance!
