I'm not sure we'll ever build a full-fledged workflow application in XWiki
Hi,
Indeed, XWiki is very close to a CMS and actually often used for this
(we use it for xwiki.com and xwiki.org).
When you look at it, most CMS work like this:
1/ Admin interface allowing to create a page, setup where it will show
up (on the home page, in a category menu, in a tag menu, in a Tree menu)
but not yet publish it
2/ Review with simple (most often) or more complex workflow
3/ Decide to publish it
I've been not able to give an answer to some people over here asking me
for a way of controlling/approving what/when pages are shown up.
Contents are related with human health issues, this this point is
extremely important: somebody have to have the responsibility of a
"final" OK for a given document. People is happy and feel themselves
comfortable with the way the "wiki way of doing things" keep control of
any and all changes, but they/we do need a way of approving a page for
publishing.
Please, has anybody faced a similar problem and solved it? Thanks!
Best regards,
Ricardo
but there are 2 things that can be done:
- Integrate XWiki with an external workflow engine such as Bonita
