Use cases
A contributor wishes to have a page published from December 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011.
Realization
Automatic publication/unpublication of a page is performed using the Scheduled publication feature. This feature is available in the Page contextual tab.
To manage the publication/unpublication time of a page :
- Select the page in the site map (help available on page: Find, locate a page)
- in the Page tab, click on the Scheduled publication button
- a pop-up window opens, allowing you to define a start and/or end date:
- the start date can be entered manually in dd/mm/yyyy format, or by clicking on the calendar icon to select a date.
- in our example, simply enter 01/12/2011 in the start date and 31/12/2011 in the end date.
Reminder
Make sure your page is valid and therefore publishable.
To do this, one of the following two conditions must be met:
- At least one of the contents referenced by the page is validated.
- The page contains a service.
The contributor can define a start date and/or an end date, enabling a page to be published from a given date, for example, without an end date.
Further information
The colors of the Programmed publication icon in the ribbon are as follows:
| No scheduled publication is defined, start and end dates are not filled in. |
| Scheduled publication is active and the page is published, with the current date between the start and end dates. |
| Scheduled publication is active but the page is unpublished, the current date is not between the start and end dates. |
Hovering the mouse over the icon brings up a context-sensitive help function for more information on the scheduled publication, for example:
