Promoting a content item

Promote a content item in order to make it available in a higher Publication (a parent Publication, grandparent Publication and so on).

Before you begin

You must be sufficiently authorized to promote a content item.

Procedure

  1. Access the Content Manager Explorer website.
  2. In the tree area, navigate to the location of the content item or content items you want to promote.
  3. In the content area, select the content item or content items you want to promote.
  4. In the Organize ribbon toolbar, select Promote.
  5. If there are multiple possible Publications to which you can promote the content item, select the Publication in the dialog that opens and click OK.
  6. If prompted, confirm that Content Manager Explorer should delete all previous versions of the content item(s) you want to promote.

Results

Content Manager Explorer promotes your content item(s). If at least one item could not be promoted, an error message reports this fact and explains why.
