Publishing from Edit forms

While most of the time a publi cation is done at the page level, it is very usefull to be able to publish a content-item individualy. This can be done directly from the Edit forms.

When content is created or updated, you can publish it to make it available to your visitors. You can request a publication to start a publication workflow, or publish your content immediately, depending on your permissions and role. When you start a workflow, the content is sent to other users for review and approval.

Note: To publish content without review, you require the Publish permission.

To publish content from the editing interfaces:

1. Navigate to your content and open it for editing.
2. Activate the advanced mode by clicking on the top-right button. (image). Since Jahia 8.2 the publication buttons are not available in the simple (by default) mode.
3. Ensure that all changes are saved. To avoid any confusion about what will be published, the Publish button is disabled until you save your changes.
