Approval Workflow

In very basic terms the Edit-WebManager approval workflow allows multiple content contributors to build pages and add content for an administrator to review, approve or decline for publication.

YES! - Every change made to a page can be rolled back if required allowing content to be quickly changed or corrected.

When creating a channel, the system will automatically create 5 Roles for the channel to which users can be assigned. For example, we create a channel named Members, the following 5 Roles are created for the new channel Members:-

Members Subscribers
Subscribers have read-only access to the content of the channel.

Members Authors
Authors can contribute content to the channel.

Members Editors
Editors are the first tier of the approval workflow. If the channel has one or more users assigned to the Editor role, Authors must submit their work for approval. An editor may approve or reject content submitted by Authors.

Members Publishers
Publishers are the top tier of the approval workflow. If one or more users are assigned to the Publisher role for the channel, then work approved by an Editor must go to the Publisher(s) for final approval and publication; if not, work approved by an Editor is published directly to the site. Any article approved by a Publisher is published directly to the site. Note: If no Editor or Publisher is assigned, Authors may publish their work directly to the site.

Members Resource Managers
Resource managers are able to upload resources (images, media files, documents, etc.) to the channel. Because users are assigned to the channels' roles, it's easy to give site visitors access to protected areas they need to see, while keeping them locked out where they don't belong. Note that a user may have more than one role.
