• Optimistic lock mode

  To set the optimistic lock mode for this content type, select the checkbox. Unselect for pesimistic lock mode.

  In Optimistic mode, no check-in or check-out is required for a user to open or save a content object. This mode is intended for work environments where there is little likelihood that two users will be working simultaneously on the same article or other content object.

  Pessimistic lock mode requires users to perform a check-out when they open a content object for editing, and a check-in when they are done, to save their changes. Checked-out content objects are locked and cannot be accessed by other users until they are checked in. This mode is intended for work environments where multiple users are responsible for a large body of content.

• Workflow

  Choose a workflow for your content type.

When you are done, select Save or Check-in (according to your selected lock mode) to save your content type configuration.
