    • Content versioning tracks changes made to Portal and Rich content types after they are published.

    Content versioning tracks changes made to the following content types after they are published:
    • Banner
    • Calendar
    • Events
    • Image-based link
    • Rich content
    • Rich text
    • Styled content
    • URL
    • Video
    To edit content once it is published, you must checkout the content, which the system saves as a new version in draft state. Once you publish the new version of the content, the system increments the version number by 1.0.
    Note:
    Content versioning must be enabled in Content Publishing > Advanced > Properties. For more information, see Properties installed with Content Publishing

    The following screen shot displays an example of change history, which allows the content admin to view the content in previous versions, identify when were the changes made, and by whom.

    Open a content and click View change history to see all the prior versions

    For instructions on how to checkout content for editing, see Checkout published content.
