# Edit a running campaign

> Change steps and messages without pausing.

You can change an active campaign at any time. Edits go live by themselves while the campaign is **Active**; there is no Publish button.

## What happens to contacts already inside

* Contacts on a step you **kept** stay where they are and use the new version from their next step.
* A LinkedIn action that's queued but not sent yet goes out with the **new** text.
* A step a contact **already did** is never repeated, even if you move or re-add it.
* If you **delete** a step where contacts are waiting, Kerux asks where to move them (another step or out of the campaign) before saving.

> [!TIP]
>
> Changing the sending schedule in the campaign's **Settings** applies right away too.

## Common problems

> [accordion] Kerux asks me where to move contacts
>
> You removed a step with contacts on it. Pick the step they should continue from, or take them out of the campaign.

> [accordion] I edited a message but a contact got the old one
>
> Messages already sent can't change. Only actions not sent yet use the new text.
