Re: [xwiki-users] XWiki Publication Workflow Application

Hello, So first you need to make sure you installed both the API and the application (the APi is a dependency of the application, so if you install with Extension Manager that will just work, if you install manually you need to handle it yourself). Then, once installed, create at least one workflow in the place of your choice (iirc, there is a template provider that is available in the PublicationWorkflow space, so just use the "Add -> Page" menu in this space). This workflow is an association of groups of contributors, validators, etc. Then, in the space where you wanna keep your draft documents, add the PublicationWorkflow.PublicationWorkflowPanel panel from the administration. Then, for a draft document that you created, use the form in this panel to setup the destination document, where the draft should be copied when it was approved for publication (the "published document"). The rights on the draft documents are handled by the workflow extension, but the rights on the published document need to be handled by you (e.g. remove all edit rights of people on that space, since nobody should be editing directly a published document, they should go through the draft and publication process). Now, you're all done, this panel should be showing you actions that you can do on the document. Also, if you put this panel (or use the macro somehow) on the published document, it will allow you to go back from the published document to its corresponding draft. If you still have troubles, check the logs of your wiki and give the exception/message/warning if there is any in the logs (when you get workflow.script.failed).
