Let's try to stage a simple Page and Folder.
- Go to
/workspaces/authoring-spacein your Plone site - this should be the Staging Area you created previously. - Click on the
Public Node- this is the Sandbox where content will be staged from. - Create a
Pageand enter some text. If you chose to only stage published content, you should publish it now. - Create a
Folder, and call itHelp. Publish it. - Inside the
Helpfolder, add anotherPage. Publish this too. - Return to the
Authoring Space. You should now see the recently created/modified content, as well as any content pending review. At the botton, you will see the previous deployments. - Scroll down and click
Complete Deployment. You can enter a note to go along with the deploymenet if you wish. You can make incremental deployments from now on, deploying only what's changed. For large sites, this may be necessary for performance reasons. - Now look at the
public_websitefolder. Your content should be there, mirroring the structure underPublic Node. - If you now access
http://public.mysite.net, you should see your content using the "retail view" skin.
