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 new content, it becomes viewable
on the specified date and time as long as it completes the approval
chain. If a site visitor accesses the page that contains the content
before then, he sees only the template.
If a logged-in CMS user browses your Web site, he sees a grey
border around the content until the date specified. If he clicks
within the grey border, he can use the Preview option to see the
new content.
Setting the Go-live Date on Existing Content
When you set a go-live date for changes to existing content, and it
completes the approval chain, a logged-in CMS user sees a grey
border around the content until the date specified.
When you view content on the Web site, you see the previously
published version. When the go-live date occurs, the new content
replaces the previous version, and its status changes to Active.
Setting an End Date on Content
To set an end date for content, follow these steps.
1. Edit content. See ”Editing HTML Content” on page 52.
2. Click the Schedule tab.
3. Click the calendar icon next to the End Date field.
4. A calendar pops up.
5. Select the date and time you want the content to be removed
from the Web site.
