Hi BMur, We got ourselves into a state over this. However we ended up thinking it was a good thing. Although still not sure 100%
the reasoning is editor 1 edits the page editor 2 deactivates the page editor 1 promotes their changes live editor 2 has in effect had work over written by freezing the deactivate you avoid this. Once an edit begins changes by another user should be "locked" out, including deactivates. hth lee c On 3/15/07, BMur <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

Thanks, Brad >>> >>> > No, I'm not referring to delete however my wording was terrible (sorry). I should have included that this occurs after already publishing the page. So, if I publish a page I can deactivate it, however once I edit the page again in the authoring environment I won't be able to deactivate the live version until I publish the edited version of the page in authoring. IMO, if the page is in a live state in the Live environment deactivate should always be available regardless of what state it's in in the authoring state. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Deactivate---intended-behavior-tf3404859.html#a9494423 Sent from the Lenya - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
