# Draft mode active as default for models

[date: 2025-01-10T12:40:14.598+01:00]

We’ve made a small but significant change to the way new models are created.

To enforce editorial best practices and provide better flexibility for your content workflows, **draft mode will now be enabled for all new projects**. While this is the new default, you are able to override this when creating new models, under the model's validation settings.

Additionally, for existing projects, we’ve added an option to enable this setting. You can find it in *Configuration \> Available Updates.*
