Feedback in Edit View
To provide feedback in your review or contribution, use comments. You can view any existing comments in the comments sidebar, and you can add new comments and reply to comments.
You can also set up notifications so that Paligo emails you when new comments are made. For old comments, there is an archiving feature, which lets you save and hide those comments that have been dealt with.

Tip
To learn how to locate a comment, get notifications about comments, change the status of a comment or archive comments, see Feedback in Review View. These features work the same in both views.
When providing feedback comments in Paligo, the comments will appear in the Comments sidebar. As a contributor, you can also add replies to comments in the Comments Sidebar. Adding comments in Edit View can be done in two ways:
-
If not activating Edit View, it works the same as in Review View. You add a comment by selecting a text or phrase and then entering your feedback.
-
When Edit View is activated, use the Comment toolbar option to add a comment to the content you are editing.
Tip
To learn more about the features, see Edit View Features.
The following instruction will show how to add comments when Edit Mode is activated.
-
Select the assignment in the Assignments Panel.
The Assignment Types control which view opens up.
Tip
For alternative ways to open an assignment, see Different Ways to Open Assignments.
-
Select the content that you want to apply the comment to.
Alternatively, you can position the cursor anywhere inside the text fragment to comment on the whole paragraph.
-
Select Add Comment in the Contributor Editor Toolbar.
-
Enter your comment in the box that appears in the Comments sidebar to the right.
Tip
When you mention another Paligo user in a comment, they get a direct link to that exact place in the publication. Use the @ symbol and then start typing their name. Select the person you want to notify from the list.
-
Select Save below the comment box.
Paligo saves the comment. A yellow highlight is shown around the content to indicate that it has a comment.
You can make changes to previous comments you have made and you can also reply to other people's comments.

If you want to change a comment you have made, you can edit it:
-
In the comments sidebar, select the comment you want to edit.
Note
If the comment has been archived, you will need to restore it before you can edit it.
-
Select the Edit option, make your changes, and then select Save.
To reply to a comment that someone else has made:
-
In the comments sidebar, select the comment that you want to reply to.
-
Select the Add option, and then enter your reply and select Save.
The comments sidebar shows all comments by default. If you prefer, you can filter the comments sidebar so that it only shows comments that meet certain criteria based on date, user and / or the status of the comments. For example, you could filter the comments sidebar so that it only shows the comments from one specific reviewer, made between January and March, and with a status of Rejected.
To filter the comments:
-
Select the filter icon at the top of the Comments sidebar.
The filter settings appear in an extra section. By default, the filter settings remain on show, so that you can see there are filters in place.
Note
Use the filter icon to show and hide the filter settings. It is often better to leave them on show so that you can see what filters are in place.
-
Enter the filter settings you want to use.
-
Select the Start Date and End Date fields to display calendars. Use the calendars to set the date of the filter.
-
Select the names of the users whose comments you want to see. Check the box next to a user's name to see their comments or clear it to hide their comments.
-
Select the Status of the comments that you want to see. Check the box next to the status name to see comments with that status. Clear the box to hide comments with that status.
Paligo applies the filters and displays the comments that meet the filter criteria. It hides any comments that do not meet the criteria.
-
By default, any content that has a comment associated with it is shown with a yellow highlight. If you prefer to work without the comment highlights, you can turn them off by using the Show / Hide comments option in the Contributor Editor Toolbar. 
Toggle the highlights on and off by selecting the Show / Hide Comments option.
