System for proofing
Posted by mholmes on 02 Dec 2010 in Activity log
As our new document markup projects get under way, we're going to need to provide options for them to view and proof their work in the context of the site, without the documents themselves appearing in the various TOCs. I've set up a system for this based on the use of revisionDesc/@status
.
- If a document has
status="published"
, or it has no revisionDesc/@status at all (which is the case for our current published docs), then it will appear in the regular TOCs on the site. - If it has a different status value, it will not appear in the TOCs.
- You can view the documents with a given status on any of the TOC pages by appending the URL parameter "status=whatever".
- The search system only looks at documents with no status or published status.
This will allow us to look at documents in development without "publishing" them officially.
