Reviewing content
Overview
Content reviews, or approvals, focus on Approving or Rejecting the content of a page or blog post.
In the approval workflow state dialog box, they are characterised by two buttons, named Approve and Reject , and an option to assign one or more users as a reviewer.
The approval workflow requires that a document be reviewed when it is in the Review or Rejected state.
If no reviewer is assigned to the content review, any user with edit or administrator permissions can undertake the content review (the approval), and a single reviewer’s approval decision causes the approval workflow to transition:
A rejected decision transitions to the Rejected state
An approved decision transitions to the Approved state
Users can be assigned as reviewers using the Add reviewer option in the approval state dialog box.
Once a user has been assigned as a reviewer, only that user can undertake the content review.
When a reviewer has been assigned, the Approve and Reject buttons are inactive (greyed out) for any other user.
When more than one user is assigned as a reviewer, all the assigned reviewers must agree to either Approve or Reject the document for the approval to transition to occur.
