The content block already exists
Each scenario is now explained.
Setting the Go Live Date on New Content
Scheduling Content to Begin and End
When you set a go live date on a new content block, the content
becomes viewable on the specified date and time. If you view the
page that contains the content before then, you only see the
template. This occurs within Ektron CMS200/300 and when you
view the content on the Web site.
Setting the Go Live Date on Existing Content
When you set a go live date on an existing content block, and it
completes the approval chain, the content has a grey border within
Ektron CMS200/300 until the date specified.
When you view the content block on the Web site, you see the
previously published version. When the go live date occurs, the
new content replaces the previously published version, and the
content block‘s status changes to Active.
Setting an End Date on a Content Block
To set an end date for a content block, follow these steps.
1. Access the editor by adding a new content block or editing an
existing one.
2. If adding a new content block, enter a title, comment, and the
body content.
3. Click the calendar button next to the End Date field.
4. A calendar pops up.
