- The responsible content contributor will make the desired edits to the content of the page.
- The responsible owner will ensure the edits are correct through a process determined by the owner and the contributor.
- When ready, an editor and/or owner will submit the page as “Ready to Review.”
- The web content manager will review pages for style consistency, messaging and tone.
- If further significant edits are deemed necessary, the web cotent manager will return the page to the contributor as “Needs Edits.” (Minor edits will be made by the web content manager.)
- If no significant edits are needed, the web content manager will approve and set the page to “Publish.”

How to Access Content
In the left-hand corner of the top toolbar, click Content. (You will see fewer options than are shown in the figure below.)
How to Filter Existing Content
Drupal offers several ways to find an already-created piece of content.
- “Title” searches every word in the title of your content.
- “Type” will pull content based on the type of information. This will be most helpful for people working with courses, events, professional development, publications, and stories.
- “Author” lets you view everything by a specific author; i.e., if you want to see only content you’ve created, enter your username in the Author field.
- “Published” allows you to filter by content publication status; i.e., if you want to see only content that is currently unpublished, select “No”
These fields do work together to create more precise filtering, as needed. For instance, if I want to see a Story I wrote about Cynthia Osborne that I haven’t published yet, I could enter “Osborne” into the Title field, select “Story” under the Type drop-down, enter my username in the Author field, and select “No” on the Published drop-down.
