Publishing process

An item's status (also called its review state) determines who can see it. A private item can only be viewed by its Owner and by the site management. Only published items are available to the general member base and anonymous visitors. To make an item published, it has to be reviewed by one of the site's Reviewers. You can request that an item be reviewed by submitting it for review.
Another way to control the visibility of an item is with its effective date. An item is not publicly available before its effective date, even if its status is published.

Publishing Details

Effective Date

The date when the item will be available (of course it needs to be published too). If no date is selected the item will be effective immediately.

Expiration Date

The date when the item expires. This will automatically make the item invisible for others at the given date. If no date is chosen, it will never expire.

Comments

Will be added to the publishing history. If multiple items are selected, this comment will be attached to all of them.

Change State

Select the new state for the selected items.
