Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/5706

Description

Currently, after first publishing to the web and then making some changes, I have to unpublish the page and publish it again for the changes to appear on the web. It would be very useful if the app could either detect changes and periodically sync or have a "save" function, similar to saving a document in an office application, that syncs the changes to the web.

Impact

Users who want to share a pages with others who are not registered.

Additional Context

Tried with version 0.6.3 on macOS 14.5

I don't think auto-sync is a good way to go because whenever you write changes and it auto-syncs you lose the control of what people see. You may not be finished with the document but it will auto-sync.

I think a button to publish with latest changes and keeping the same link is the way to go.

I agree that a button is better. Ideally with a keyboard shortcut.

Just a note: I just found that Notion auto-syncs changes to published pages. No need to copy this behavior here, but it's good to know that it's accepted there.
