Episerver Approval Workflow Process

Vote:
 

Hi,

I'd like to have a multi-step approval process for publishing pages. Essentially I want our editors to have the ability to add/edit content, that would then get submitted to a reviewed, who would approve it, then it would get sent to a publisher who is a single person in charge of publishing content / submitting for translations.

Episerver has a very simple request for approval / publish system workflow. Is there any way I can add onto this? Also the out of the box approval process doens't seem to have any type of email notification. Is this just something I'm missing?

-Paul

While EPiServer 6 supports .net 4, it's not actually built against 4.0, so I believe you're restricted to using the .NET 3.5 WF features.

The SDK has a pretty comprehensive guide to creating custom workflows.  Take a look here: Developers Guide > Advanced Features > Workflows  Pega Training

The fully-released version of content approvals is available in CMS UI 10.8.0 or higher. If you want to use groups in the approval process, you need CMS UI version 10.10.0 or higher.
