Publishing Settings
In Paligo, you can Save Publishing Settings. Once the settings are saved, they are added to the Saved Settings tab for the publication you are publishing, not all publications. From there, you can Apply Saved Publishing Settings and Paligo will automatically apply them to your publication. This is much quicker than applying each setting individually each time you publish.

Tip
To reuse saved settings from another publication, see Copy Publishing Settings. This will save you time when you are publishing a new publication.
By saving your publishing settings, you make the publishing process much quicker. For example, you can prepare which output type to be used, languages to be included, profiling attributes (filters) and Variables to be applied for a specific publication.
Tip
To use the saved settings in a different publication, see Copy Publishing Settings.

Instead of entering the publication settings manually each time you publish, you can copy saved settings from another publication. This can save you time and help avoid repeat work if you have many publications that need to use the same, or similar, publication settings.

-
Select the dotted menu (...) for the publication in the Content Manager and choose Publish.
The Publish Document dialog appears.
-
Select the Saved Settings tab.

Paligo provides you with a list of saved publication settings from other publications.
-
Check the box in front of the publication setting that you want to copy.

Important
If you:
-
Check the box - the copy will be a reused version of the original. Any changes you make to the copy will also be made to the original.
-
Clear the box - the copy will be completely separate to the original. Any changes you make to the copy will not affect the original.
-
-
Select OK to make the copy. It is added to the list of Saved Settings.
Tip
The copy has a dotted menu (...) that provides options for renaming, editing and duplicating the copy.
-
To apply the copied publication settings, select its checkbox.
-
Select Publish document.
Let's say you have an "ACME 100 User Guide" and for that, you always use the same publishing settings. You have those settings saved, but the save is only available for the "ACME 100 User Guide".
You then create an "ACME 200 User Guide" and you want it to use the same publication settings as the "ACME 100 User Guide".
To do this, you go to publish the "ACME 200 User Guide" and copy the saved publication settings from the "ACME 100 User Guide".You can then apply the copied settings, rather than enter them all again manually. The copy settings are also added to the list of saved settings for the "ACME 200 User Guide", so you can access them from there in future.
