How Collaboration Works

Creating a Collaborator

This part involves four steps: naming the collaborator, assigning them a role, delegating pages to them, and inviting them. Note that collaboration works without email.

Naming the collaborator and assigning them a role

There are two scenarios: the collaborator has been invited before, or they have never been invited. In the first case, they are remembered by the software: the Chief Editor simply selects them. In the second case, they need to be created, as shown in the following illustration.

Assigning pages to the Collaborator

The Chief Editor selects the pages and validates.

Inviting the collaborator

Each collaborator accesses the magazine through a unique link that needs to be shared with them.

The Chief Editor’s Perspective

On the flatplan, they can clearly distinguish the delegated pages: they are gray, marked with a padlock icon, and bear the name of their delegate.

The Collaborator’s Perspective

The collaborator can also clearly distinguish the pages they can work on. They can then edit their pages normally, as described above.

Reassigning a Page to the Chief Editor or Associate Editor

When they have finished their work, the delegate can reassign their page to their delegator.
