Want this feature?
Content Lock is a CV ecommerce multisite content management feature. It can also be used to restrict content editing to specific roles on a single site. Contact Commerce Vision to enable.
Requires: 2022:3.
How Content Lock Works
Role-based permissions
Content Administrator role: When Content Lock is enabled on your site, this role is added.
- This Content Administrator role can control:
- on a single or source site: lock and unlock data types and items
- on a single or source site: add, edit and delete locked objects
- on a target site: control what locked content is deployed to networked target sites (if Deploy Content is used with Lock Content)
- on a target site: unlock deployed content for editing (if Deploy Content is used with Lock Content)
NOTE - The CMS Admin has all Content Admin permissions by default.
Enable Content Lock
CMS Admin and Content Admin roles can enable and disable content locking on a site after the feature has been switched on by Commerce Vision.
To enable/disable locking:
- In the CMS, go to Settings → Settings → Feature Management → Content → Content Lock.
- Toggle ON/OFF Content Lock.
Assign Roles
With Content Lock enabled, a CMS Administrator can assign the Content Administrator role to specific users who are to manage content locking. Other users will be able to view but not edit locked content.
