Who the published copy is written by

The copy is written into the target space by the app itself, not by the person publishing, so ordinary authors need no permission in the target space at all. Manual publishes are attributed as "Published by <name>", approval publishes as "Published via Approval", and system publishes fall back to the display name "Capable". To be able to read and rewrite restricted source pages the app adds its own app user to the source page's restrictions when a publish runs, and re-adds itself whenever restrictions are edited on a page in a publish-enabled space.

#Worth knowing

  • There is no unpublish or delete action. "Clear state" only breaks the link, changing the target space only clears records, and Reset to default leaves every published page in place. Published copies must be deleted by hand in the target space, and nothing in the product says so.
