Publish Workflow

The publish workflow of this CMS consists of the following 3 stages. The stage determines who can see the guide as well as where the guide appears on the website front-end.

Draft

The initial stage where all guides start out in. Guides in this stage are not visible by anyone other than the original author. [1]

In-review

The second stage were guides go that are ready for community editing help. Any user can mark their guide as ‘in-review’ from dropdown at the bottom of the guide page.

Guides should only be marked as ‘in-review’ when they are complete and ready editing help.

Please don’t mark partially completed guides as in-review. This will necessarily waste community editors time reviewing guides that are not completed.

Guides marked as ‘in-review’ will show up on the ‘Review’ page.

Published

The final stage for fully edited articles is published. This is the stage where the community editors have decided a guide is ready for the world to see. Only community editors can move a guide into the published stage.

Published articles will be available on the homepage of the site.
