Overview
A user can publish a single page from a Publish option on the page itself.
To publish individual pages a space admin in the space tools Publishing dashboard must choose the Configure options button
- scroll down to Single Page Publish
- use the tick slider for Show "Publish" button on each page to enable users to publish individual pages
Other publishing configuration settings and/or user permissions may mean the on-page Publish byline option is not displayed even if Single Page Publish is enabled. For example, a publishing sync label is configured but not added to the page.
You need to have the following Confluence permissions in the published space to publish a draft page or blog post
- View All
- Add and Delete pages
- Add and Delete news
- Add and Delete attachments
You will also need to check that
- a source space and published have been set up
- configuration settings
- in the published space, the page you are publishing does not have any page restrictions limiting your access
- you are a member of the groups added to the Publishers Group in Comala Publishing global configuration (check with your global administrator)
Single page publishing
An existing page in the draft space that has been published will display a PUBLISHED lozenge and a link to the published space content.
To publish changes to an existing single page
- edit an existing page and Publish the page update
- the Publish byline option and an OUT OF SYNC publishing lozenge is added to the draft content
An OUT OF SYNC lozenge is also be added to the linked published space page
- choose the Comala Publishing Publish byline option
The dialog box requests confirmation of the Publish and sync for this content. It also displays the target published space name. - choose Yes to publish and sync the page
The publish and sync of the single page is confirmed on-screen.
The draft and published space pages will both display the PUBLISHED status lozenge.
Draft (source) space page
PUBLISHED (target)space page
You can edit and save changes on a published space page. However, when you next publish the draft version of that page, it overwrites the content on the published space page.
Comala Publishing will display a warning in the editor when editing on a published page for this reason.
