You can change publish state, publish or unpublish. Follow this step to make the toggle live.

1. Open "admin.hello.php" file, add following code to switch():

   
   switch($task){
   
     case 'remove':
       removeHello();
       break;
   		
     case 'publish':
       changeHello(1 );
       break;
   
     case 'unpublish':
       changeHello(0 );
       break;				
   		
     default:
       showHello();
       break;
   
   }
   

2. Add changeHello() function:

   
   function changeHello( $state=0 )
   {
     global $mainframe;
   
     // Initialize variables
     $db 	=& JFactory::getDBO();
   
     // define variable $cid from GET
     $cid = JRequest::getVar( 'cid' , array() , '' , 'array' );	
     JArrayHelper::toInteger($cid);
   
     // Check there is/are item that will be changed. 
     //If not, show the error.
     if (count( $cid ) < 1) {
       $action = $state ? 'publish' : 'unpublish';
       JError::raiseError(500, JText::_( 'Select an item 
       to' .$action, true ) );
     }
   
     // Prepare sql statement, if cid more than one, 
     // it will be "cid1, cid2, cid3, ..."
     $cids = implode( ',', $cid );
   
     $query = 'UPDATE #__hello'
     . ' SET published = ' . (int) $state
     . ' WHERE id IN ( '. $cids .' )'
     ;
     // Execute query
     $db->setQuery( $query );
     if (!$db->query()) {
       JError::raiseError(500, $db->getErrorMsg() );
     }
   
     if (count( $cid ) == 1) {
       $row =& JTable::getInstance('hello', 'Table');
       $row->checkin( intval( $cid[0] ) );
     }
   
     // After all, redirect to front page
     $mainframe->redirect( 'index.php?option=com_hello' );
   }
