Advanced WCM Workflow

[p3t3r_83]

Hi all,

I have the requirement to modify the existing WCM work flow on Alfresco Community 2.1. The required work flow is:

- Editor submit modified items to staging web server
- CM gets email notification
- CM review the content in the staging web server
- CM log-in to alfresco to approve / reject
- CM set schedule for automatic content deployment to production web server if the contents is approved

Extra requirement is that the editor can only deploy to the staging web server and must not able to deploy to production web server.

Anyone has idea on how to do it?

Thanks in advance,
Peter

You can achieve this with the out-of-the-box Web Site Submission workflow and careful configuration of roles within your web project.  Only content managers can deploy, so provided your editors do not have the content manager role the system will behave exactly as you describe.
