0.5 Publishing content

To make any unpublished changes to an existing module or collection viewable by anyone on the Internet, you must publish the content in Connexions. Topublish content, use the following steps:

1. Click on the "Publish" tab. The "Publish Module" (or "Publish Collection") screen displays. This screen contains a list of reminders for you to check before you publish the content, as well as a reminder of the terms of the license agreement.
2. Type a brief description of your new changes to the content in the "Description of Changes" text box.
3. Click Publish . Your changes to the content are entered into the Connexions Content Repository as a new version of the existing content (version 1.1 if the content is being published for the first time). Once in the ContentRepository, anyone with Internet access can view the new version module or collection.

A new module or collection would not necessarily have editing changes, so in the "Description of Changes" text box you might enter a comment like"Created a new module" or "Created a new collection".
