WorkFlow Setup

Hi Guys,


Im trying to setup a workflow but am having a problem.



I have:


  1. Created 2 Users and granted permissions. (note: they are both under the user group 'content authors')
  2. Setup a Workflow Schema, made a condition that one user must approve.
  3. Assigned the Workflow Schema to the Site.



    Now when I get one of the users to edit a page on the Site. They can without having to ask anyone for approval. So therefore it will go live without asking for approval.



    I am obviously missing a step, was hoping someone could point me to right direction.

That's exactly what your workflow says – if either of the users applies, they have the ability to approve, so it automatically allows them to approve and make live. If you want the other person to approve, you'll need to set at least 2 members to approve (or both).

I have put the 2 members to approve. But when one makes a change to the web page, it still goes live, doesn't ask others for approval?


I think i've got the settings to for the site to be 'live' mixed up. I will play around abit more and see what i come up with.

Essentially, you have to make sure that all conditions need to be met for the workflow to complete (instead of just one of them). It sounds like you have added two users into a single step, but only configured the step to require a single condition to succeed.

You're correct on that one. I got it working now. Thanks heaps.
