Agility CMS - Create and Manage Vibrant Websites

Publishing Workflow

Agility allows you to set up a publishing workflow that defines the lifecycle of content changes from creation to publish.  Designer users set up the Modules on a page, Contributor and Editor users add and change content, Approver users approve changes and Publisher users publish it to your live site.

Each Agility user can have one or more roles.  Roles can be set up across the site, or specific to a section, page or module.

The following table provides the list of Agility roles and their access level.  It refers to the page, but also applies to an entire section of the site, or to a specific module within a page.

For simpler sites with only one or a few users, you would use the Manager role to give your users the ability to create pages, edit content, and publish them to the live site.
