Peter,
You were able to log in to ODFAuthors and upload the file, so your
user name is clearly valid. I just checked and you appear to have the
necessary permissions to change a file's status, so I don't know why
you can't. Don't worry about it; it's not stopping you from doing
anything else. Anyway, there is no "reviewed" status for files on the
ODFAuthors website; we keep track of that on the wiki:

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Documentation/Development/UserGuideTasks#Status_of_tasks_BH_v4.2

As for checking out another chapter, just download it from ODFAuthors.
Then put your initials in the "Checked out" column on the wiki page I
linked above.

Yes, I know it's a slightly clunky system. We tried to do a more
automated one several years ago, using a different platform, but it
didn't work out. (Long, boring explanation omitted here.) The people
actually doing the work at the time appeared to be happy with the
system we're using. Of course, it may be time to change the system, if
enough people find it's a problem and want to do something different.

Lastly, I see there was no folder for Reviewed 4.2, so I have created
one and moved your reviewed file from Drafts 4.2 to the new folder.
Using different folders seems to help people keep track of what stage
a file has reached.

This is the page where I cannot edit or change the fields in the table. If
I try to log on using my ODF login it says I am not a user.

How can I change the status of files in this page?

I have downloaded the Queries chapter (4.2 Chapter 6 Queries)  and will
work on this

Peter Goggin.

Which precise page are you attempting to access without success? You
uploaded a file to ODFAuthors so you definitely have a working login there.

If you mean the LibreOffice wiki page, that is a different website which
uses its own login, separate from ODFAuthors. You should be able to create
your own login on the wiki: look for the link in the upper right hand
corner. You can use the same username etc when you create your account
there, if you wish.

Sorry, the wiki page referred to is actually on the Document
Foundation wiki, as shown in the URL.

I am sorry but I do not seem to be able to make any changes to this page, despite logging on etc. I need to remove the reference to me in the last column for Ch 4 Forms and put an entry indicating I am working on Ch 5 Queries.

I am probably missing something blindinglynobvious.

Regards

Peter Goggin
