Save and Preview Content

Changes made to a block, file, folder or page must be submitted after editing. Content can be saved by previewing a draft of your changes before submitting or bypassing the preview to submit your changes. 

Note: Submitting your changes on an asset does not update your live site. Updates to the live site are made through the process of publishing.

Drafts

As you're working on updating content on a page, Cascade continuously saves a draft version of the page. Closing or clicking out of the editing interface automatically saves a draft. Additionally, clicking Preview Draft saves a draft. The next time you enter the editing interface, you'll be notified that a draft was recently saved with the following message with options to preview changes, resume editing or discard the draft.

Edit a Draft

When a page has a draft saved, a drop down menu will appear before the page name in the upper left of the workspace. The drop down allows you to view the current version of the page or the saved draft. Select Draft from the drop down menu and select Edit to make changes to the draft.

Access Your Drafts

All saved drafts can be accessed by clicking My Content in the toolbar and then selecting Drafts.

Drafts can also be seen in the dashboard by clicking Home (Cascade logo) and selecting the Drafts tab in the My Content widget.

Content Checker

When saving and submitting your content, you'll be prompted to complete a spell check, broken link check and an accessibility check for all content on the page. Cascade will flag any content that appears to be misspelled, broken or inaccessible.

Spell Check

The Spell Check provides a list of misspelled or unfamiliar words and allows you to choose from the following actions.

  2. Ignore a misspelled word. This is checked by default.
  3. Fix a misspelled word by choosing a suggested word from the drop down menu. 

Broken Links

The Broken Link checker scans your content for links that are returning as broken and allows you to choose from the following actions.
