Setting a Page or Folder to be Unpublishable

Why would you need to do this?

If you are working on a page in Cascade that is still in Draft status or under review, you must mark it as unpublishable to prevent it from being accidentally published—by yourself or another web editor. This ensures that incomplete or in-progress content is not pushed live unintentionally. 

How to set a page to not be publishable

  1. While in the page, select the Edit button

    The top of the cms page is shownn with the Edit button highlighted
     
  2. In the Configure Tab, uncheck the 'Include when Publishing' box.

    The Configure area is shown with the Include when Indexing and the Include when Publishing checkboxes unchecked.
     
  3. Select Preview Draft and then Submit to finalize the changes
     
  4. If you want to test that it worked correctly, try to Publish. If it is set as Unpublishable, you will get the following message:

    The publish window shown with a Asset Not Publishable Error

 

How to set a folder not to be published

This follows a similar process of setting a page not to be published and is useful if there are multiple pages within a folder that are not to be published.

  1. While at the folder level, select the Edit button

    The top of the folder level with the Edit button highlighted.
     

  2. In the Properties Tab, uncheck the 'Include when Publishing' box.

    The Properties tab of the Folder edit level with the include when publishing checkbox unchecked.
     

  3. Choose Submit

  4. If you try to Publish any page within the Folder that you set not to publish, you will get this error:

    An error message appears when a page cannot be published because of a folder setting
