State

Lets you change the state of the content item. The following states can be selected:

• Draft

• Approved

• Submitted

• Published

A content item page that is in any of the first three states is not visible in the web publication even if it has been added to an active section page and cannot be found by searching; a content item in the Published state is visible and can at least be found by searching. The first three states can be used to represent various stages in your organization's work flow, but have no effect on how a content item is handled by the Content Engine or Content Studio.
