Concepts
Links to the topics that contain information about Content Manager terminology, features, and tools.
- Objects in Content Manager
Content Manager stores your content in objects. You then build your deliverables by assembling these objects. You can use baselines, object properties, objects versions and branches, object languages, images resolution, to manage the complexity of your organization's content and translations. - The Workflow
The workflow is one of the basic concepts ruling the use of Tridion Docs. It can be used in its simple version provided with the tool or it can be extended. Usage and customization benefit from a good comprehension of the principles, a careful design and a precise knowledge of the implementation. - Translation management
Content Manager helps translation coordinators by minimizing the content that needs to be translated, determining the target languages following the reuse relationships, and by applying In-Context Perfect Matching. - Users and groups
Permissions to objects in the repository is based on user groups and roles, and the relationship between them and the objects in the repository. - Folders
All content in the Content Manager repository is stored in folders. When creating a folder, you define the type of content that it can contain. Content Manager does not use the location of an XML object for addressing or linking so the folders are for your convenience only for organizing, storing, and locating objects. - Image resolution
How to set up image resolution parameters and use them for publishing. - User and security
User access control policies provide secure access to the Content Manager repository and all the objects it contains. User roles and groups define access to objects in the repository. - Understanding Conditional Text
Conditional text refers to text or graphics to which a condition attribute setting has been applied. Condition settings can be used to specify whether specific content is to be hidden or shown when generating publication output. - Variables
Variables are placeholders inside your XML documents which are replaced by a text string or graphic at publishing time. - Search
Search the whole repository, metadata and content, based on criteria that you specify in the search window. - Content mashup
Content mashup is the ability to include content from SDL Tridion Docs into SDL Tridion Sites pages. - Server roles
An overview of the different server roles which can be recognized within a Content Manager installation - Best practices for creating a Trisoft InfoShare BackgroundTask service with a specific role
The topic described how to create a Trisoft InfoShare BackgroundTask service with a specific role - Background task component
Background task is an application logic that is triggered on certain events, does not require user interaction and runs in a background by a background task service. Typical example is publishing process: it has to be triggered by user, but after it is triggered, it does not require user input neither does it require user to wait. Instead, the publishing process runs in a background, and user can know that it is finished by periodically checking the status of a publication. - Mandatory and optional fields
Typically a field is accessible in two user interfaces (Web Client and client tools) and through the WebServices API. - Overview of the extension configuration
The extension configuration contains all information needed to configure extension plugins that can be used for metadata binding and search query enhancement.
