Overview
A space administrator can configure a space to publish pages to a target space in the space settings publishing dashboard.
To enable publishing the space administrator must add a destination target space. Publishing is then enabled by default.
Once the target space is added the space administrator can
The space administrator requires space admin permission in both the source space and the target space.
Enable publishing from a space
Once the app is installed in the instance you can enable the publishing of pages between two spaces in the space settings publishing dashboard.
You will first need to add a Target Space in the source space publishing dashboard.
This is accessed by choosing the source space Space Settings>App links>Publishing.
For a space with no current target space configured, space administrators can choose the Configure Publishing button to use the space publishing configuration setup tool to add the target space.
The target space is the destination space where the pages will be published.
Comala Publishing cannot publish from a space that has already been set as a target space for publishing.
The Target space dropdown menu will automatically display a maximum of 10 spaces
the last 10 spaces accessed by the current user
if less than 10 spaces have been accessed, the menu list will include the last created spaces (to display up to a maximum of 10 in the list)
A space can also be searched by name.
If the current user does not have view and edit permission for a space it not be available in the dropdown menu.
Comala Publishing cannot be used to configure a space as a new target space that is currently being used as an existing target space or source space.
Selecting a space to add as a target space that is already configured as a source space or target space displays a warning message and the Change button is disabled.
The publishing configuration must be cleared from the selected space in order to add it as a target space for a new source space.

Disabling the Enable publishing option will will disable both single-page publishing and space publishing in the space and hide these options in the publishing dashboard.
Comala Publishing is designed to publish pages to an “empty” target space (except for the space homepage). Although a space with existing pages can be configured as a target space, if you set a target space that has some existing title pages that are the same as in the source space, this can cause publishing issues.
