After I create the effect I click on Publish and it says cant publish you need a four channel output image. What and how is this created to be able to publish effect?

It sounds like you've created a single channel image (which is either just red, green, blue or brightness). The easiest way to turn a single channel image into a full colour image is to use the RGB Merge node and connect your single channel to all of the three inputs to the RGB Merge node. That will make a black and white image out of your single channel image. Don't forget to join the output of the new node to the effect output. Let me know if that's not what you wanted.

Kind regards

Tony
