Remember

Webstore consists of folders Folder icon containing page groups that are web pages Web page icon or other types of file File icon. There are two types of special page group, home page groups and index page groups, both shown as Home page/index icon.

As a logged on User you are able to see some folders that are not accessible before. You will be able to do different things to folders and page groups depending on whether you are a reader, writer, caretaker or publisher. Administrators can do everything.

To see the range of extra functions that are available see Overview of Folder options and Overview for Page Group Options.

As well as the published content, shown by the green circles, there are two other 'states' of page group which you may be able to see when you are logged on:

Private web page icon or Private file icon show page groups which are 'hidden'. This is the state when a page group is uploaded. It can only be seen by users with access to that folder. Only when it is 'published' by a publisher or an administrator can the page group be seen by any anonymous browser.

Marked web page icon or Marked file icon show page groups which are 'marked'. This can be done by caretakers of a folder when they wish to show a publisher or administrator that they have proof-read a page group, and it is now marked as 'suitable for publication'. A publisher or administrator can either browse for marked page groups, or search for them all, and with a single click they can then publish them, changing the circle to green. This means any anonymous browser can then view the page group.
