Scheduling Content to Begin and End


Scheduling Content to Begin and End

Scheduling content lets you control when a content block becomes visible on the Web site. Similarly, you can remove a content block on a predetermined date and time. When used together, a start and end date can relieve you of much work by managing how long a content block is viewable on your Web site.

You can also set options for what happens to a content block after reaching its end date.

How Does It Work?

When you create a content block or modify an existing one, you can select a "go live" date and time. If you do, and the content makes it through the approval chain, Ektron CMS400.NET publishes the content block to the live site at that time.

For example, your company is having a sale of the century in a month, and everything is ready except the announcement. You decide to update your Web site to let the public know about the sale. With this feature, you create the Web content now and set it to go live a week before the sale.
