How to edit ad copy

Updated on 2026-08-26

Applies to: AdWing Ads & creative

Change the headline or body text on an ad and publish the update to Meta.

Before you start

  • None.

Steps

  1. Open the campaign, then the ad set, then the Ads page.
  2. Click Edit on the ad's row — or click the copy text directly (it's clickable, tooltip "Click to edit copy").
  3. Update the headline and/or body text.
  4. Click Save. To abandon the edit instead, click Cancel.
  5. Click Push. A confirmation asks Push this ad's changes to Meta? — confirm it.

Result: on Save you get "Saved locally. Push to Meta to sync." and a Pending Push badge on the row. After confirming the push you get "✅ Pushed to Meta." and the badge clears.

If it doesn't work

What you see What it means What to do
"Save failed: …" The local save was rejected Re-open the row, check your text, and save again
Nothing happens for several seconds after Push The service can take 5–10 seconds to wake after being idle Wait a moment and try again
No Pending Push badge after Save Nothing actually changed, or the save didn't register Re-open Edit, confirm your text, save again
Your edit vanished after Sync from Meta This shouldn't happen — sync preserves pending edits by design Report the ad name and what you clicked beforehand

Live-ads warning ⚠️ Pushing publishes to Meta immediately. Changes affect live ads and can spend real budget. Test with items named test_ unless you intend to change live ads.
