Marking assets for publish associates them with a specific publishing target or targets. Once marked, assets are published to these targets when your organization runs a publish.
Note: Assets must be checked in prior to marking for publish.
To check in an asset:
- Navigate to Assets > Assets Tree.
- Right-click an asset or folder in the Assets Tree.
- Select Check In
- Your asset is now checked in and ready to be marked for publish.
- To check in multiple items within your folder, you may also right-click on the folder that contains those assets to be checked in, and select Folder and Children.
- The Check-in Asset Folder and Children dialog box appears. Click Check in Asset Folder and Children.
To mark an asset for publish:
- Navigate to Assets > Assets Tree.
- Right-click the asset or folder in the Assets Tree.
Note: To select multiple, adjacent assets in the Assets Tree, drag your mouse across the assets that you want to select. Otherwise, use Ctrl+click to form a group of selected assets, no matter if they are adjacent or not, to be marked for publish. - Select Mark/Unmark for Publish. The Mark/Unmark assets for publish dialog displays.
Note: If the item is a folder, then Mark/Unmark Descendant Assets for Publish displays instead of Mark/Unmark for Publish. - Select the Live checkbox in the Marked for Publish column to associate the asset with the publishing target for the live website.
- Click OK.
You will then want to publish your asset(s) to the live website, in order for them to be view. Learn more on how to do that here.
