Suggestions in the Main Editor

Abstract

How to recognize contributor suggestions in the main Editor.

Authors and administrator users can open topics in the main Editor. However, you cannot accept, reject, or delete suggestions in the main Editor. You have to use Suggest View to Accept or Discard Suggestions.

If you open a topic that contains suggestions, they are shown as content with:

  • Green highlight for content to be added.

  • Red highlight and strikethrough line for content to be removed. This is the same as in the Edit View and Suggest View.

Paligo full editor showing a topic that contains suggestions. The suggestions have green or red highlights.

Note

In the underlying XML, each suggestion is inside a remark element. The remark element has various attributes, including xinfo:suggestion, xinfo:suggestion-element, and xinfo:suggestion-name. For example, the following code shows an example of the XML for a suggestion that adds text.

<remark xinfo:suggestion="true" xinfo:suggestion-element="suggestion-start" xinfo:suggestion-name="deletion:ef0f182d1fa3ff715db7d8929ce42405b:user-24">
