How to edit a published LinkedIn Page post

You published a LinkedIn Page post and then noticed a mistake in the text or a link. You can correct those fields in the existing post. Here is how to find the edit option, save the change, and check the limits for attached media or sponsored posts.

You need the Page super admin or content admin role. The main steps cover organic posts; the sponsored-post conditions are explained below.

Check what you can change

You can correct the text, URLs, mentions, and hashtags in a Page post. (Editable fields listed by LinkedIn) Its help does not include replacing the attached media as part of this edit. If you need to change an image, video, or document, check the options LinkedIn gives you for that post before deciding whether to publish another one.

Edit the post from your Page

On a computer:

1. Open your LinkedIn Page admin view and go to Page posts.
2. Find the post and click More.
3. Select Edit post.
4. Make the available changes and click Save.

In the mobile app, open Dashboard from the Page admin view and select Page posts. Find the post, tap More → Edit post, make your changes, and tap Save. LinkedIn documents both routes in its help for editing a Page post.

Open the post again and check that the corrected text or link appears. If Edit post is missing, confirm that you have the super admin or content admin role and that you are viewing a Page post rather than something published from a personal profile.

If the post is sponsored

For a sponsored post, you need access to its associated ad account as well as the appropriate Page role. LinkedIn requires at least 500 followers or 50 associated employees for this editing capability. Pages linked to at least one enterprise ad account have the capability regardless of those counts.

The ad goes through review again, and the previous version may remain visible during review. Boosted video posts that are already live and rejected or restricted posts can’t be edited. Check your ad’s status and the official sponsored-post conditions before applying your correction.

If you also want the post to appear in Featured, a super admin can review how to feature posts on the LinkedIn Page so they appear in its Featured section.
