Publishing the report
The Publish pages button publishes the pages currently displayed in the report table.
The number of pages to be published is displayed on the button.
For example, for a publishing report for a source space with the state NOT SYNCED filter applied that displayed two pages:
Only the two listed pages are published.
Choose Publish to confirm.
The space publishing report is displayed upon completion of the publishing action.
If the publishing report for a space has the Any state filter applied and five pages are displayed, all of the displayed pages are published.
