Edit a page - Step 5

After editing your webpage, you have to apply a status to your page. status.jpgYou can do this using the button located between the buttons "SEO" and "Save". This button represents the current status of your page. Pushing the button will show a menu. You can select the new status from the menu. You have the following options:

  • Expired (you cannot select this value yourself)
  • Denied
  • Draft
  • Pending
  • Published

By default, a new page has the status value "Draft". Pages with this status value won't appear on your website. status_publiceren.jpgIf you want your page to be visible on your website you have to assign the status value "Published" to the page. If this value is not available to you, someone else is responsable for pages to be approved and published. If that's the case, you select the value "Pending". After that, the responsable person can check the page, and "Publish" or "Deny" it. If the page is "Denied" you can improve the page content, and change the status value to "Pending" again.

Several versions of a page will be available inside the system (the number of versions depends on the system configuration). If you save a page with a status value other than "Published", the published version will still be available, and is still the version that is visible on the website. As soon as a new version is saved as published, the latest published version will be saved with status value "Expired". You can see the versions of a webpage inside the header "History", which is located inside the tab "Objects".

Attention
Only a limited number of versions will be saved. Therefore, if you save a new version of a page, the oldest version may be deleted. So, you can't rely on old information always to stay available. However, a currently published version will never be deleted that way.

Whether or not a page contains a published version, you can see inside the tree view of your website: A little green "V" means that a published version exists, and therefore is visible at your website. A little red cross means that no published version exists and therefore that page won't be visible at your website.
