- Description
I'm using staging and approving wiki pages and recognized, that the page description disappears under some conditions. I tried to find out this "some conditions" and hope to give sufficient informations:
- First a user or admin creates a new (wiki) page with description.
- The page is saved as staging page with the description.
- If the page is edited before approval (by user or admin), the description remains in the field.
- If the page is approved by an approver (= user with permission), the description remains in the field, too.
- If the page is approved by admin, the description is away.
- If the approved page with a description (equal, if approved by an approver or by admin with rewriting of the description) is reopened for edit, the page description field is blank.
With "page description disappears" I mean, thata) the description is not saved when approving the page by admin and
b) the description field prior filled with a description is then blank, when the page is opened for editing (after approval).
