Content validation is the process of assuring that only pertinent and finalized information will be displayed to users.
It is possible to validate publications, pages and a set of modules. The elements to be validated are listed in the "Pending validation" section of the Automne menu.
There are five states for the modules and pages in Automne:
- Archived,
- Deleted,
- Editing,
- Edited,
- Public.
It should be noted that non-standard modules have only three of these five states:
- Deleted,
- Edited,
- Public.
A module or page in the Edited state acts as the source for all actions except for the invalidation of a modification, the invalidation of an archive and the validation of a modification.
