Pages within an archived space will appear in a few places.
If you view a page within an archived space, that page will appear in:
- The Recently visited section of the search panel.
- The Recently viewed pages menu.
If you edit a page within an archived space, that page will appear in:
- Activity streams
- The Recently updated macro.
Pages within an archived space won't appear in search results, unless you select Search archived spaces.
These functions remain available for archived spaces:

You can edit the content as usual, as determined by the space permissions.
RSS feeds, watches and notifications remain active.
