What happens if I delete a pattern from my shop to edit it?

So I have some things that I would like to add to one of my patterns just to help people out a bit more in the pattern…. And I have a question for @ribblr , what happens if I un- release my pattern and then re-release it? Does that pattern become deleted from all the people who had it in their pattern library’s and then when I re-release it does it automatically get added back and same with the wishlists? And if I remove it from my shop and then re-release it it stays in their pattern library’s the whole time and when I edit the pattern nothing is going to change on their end because they got the other “version”? (I’m only changing a couple words and things like that so nothing is going to really “change” in the pattern it will just make it easier to understand and fix some issues people are having (and I just want to know so in the future I can do this if needed and I bet other people have the same questions)

If you Un publish a pattern the people how have already gotten it will still see it in their pattern library and be able to use it. I also think that their version of the pattern also updates! (Idk if that made sense)

If u un release the pattern it still keeps it in people whishlists and people who got the pattern will still have it in their library as well as have the updated changes! I’ve done it so many times before hehe so I know that’s how it works​:two_hearts:
