When I publish a component in SDL Tridion, the page it’s used on doesn’t always publish. What conditions are needed in order to publish a component and have its page get published as well?
In either the SiteEdit or Content Manager Explorer (CME) interface, content editors can publish components or pages.
Publishing components will also publish the pages they are used on only if those pages are already published for the given publication target.
This may cause confusion especially with the page-focused SiteEdit (SDL Tridion inline editor) interface when selecting and publishing components instead of the entire page.
When in doubt, publish the page at least once to the appropriate publication target. Once the page is published, you can publish either the component or the page to that target to make updates.
