Two separate things get published: your camp, and each session
Your camp profile is published by you, from Review & Publish. It needs a complete Basic Info and Audience section and at least 5 photos — there's no approval step and no minimum number of sessions. You can have a fully published, visible camp profile with zero sessions on it while you finish setting up dates and prices.
Each session is published separately, from the same editor, once it has its dates, prices, and capacity set. Publishing a session needs the Child safety confirmation (a single checkbox — no documents to upload), unless you're on a Pro or Premium plan. The first session you publish on a camp without a plan also asks you to accept the Marketplace terms: that puts your camp on Marketplace, with no annual fee, and your dates online. Families can send requests once your two documents are verified.
What's in the editor
The editor covers Basic Info, Audience, Photos & Media, Activities (the sections here follow your camp's own activity categories), Skills & Levels Required, Booking Requirements, What's Included, Optional Add-ons, Discounts, Accommodation, Meals & Dietary, Daily Schedule, Safety & Policies, Parent Info, What to pack, Location & Campus, Getting There, Excursions & Trips, and Translations. Sessions & Pricing links out to your Bookings workspace; camp-wide mandatory fees live on the Pricing rules page.
Translations
If you sell internationally, your short text fields (camp name, description, session and add-on names) and your rich profile sections are shown to families in several languages. Auto-generated translations are marked "Auto"; anything you write yourself is marked "Edited". Editing the English original after it's translated marks it "Stale" in red — that's a prompt to re-check it, not a fault. Edit English first, then check the Translations tab, rather than editing a translated version directly.
Before you go live
Publishing is only part of it. Your setup home tracks the four steps — Create your camp, Publish your profile, Add your dates & prices, Get paid — and shows what comes next. Requests open once your two documents are verified; online payments once Stripe, your deposit and your cancellation policy are set.
