KB User's Guide - Enabling the Beta Document Edit Screen

This document describes how to enable the new document edit screen for your KB space.

We have developed a new version of the document editing interface for the KB, and the new version is ready for beta testing. While testing the new editor, you will still have access to the current edit screen, so your authors can choose which version they'd prefer to use.

If you are an admin in your KB group space, you can enable the new editing screen for your users by doing the following:

  1. In the KB Admin Tools, go to Settings > Group Spaces.

  2. Click the Edit link for your group space.

  3. Scroll down to the Documentation Settings section. Set the New doc edit screen access dropdown to Yes.

    The dropdown to enable the new doc edit screen is the first option under the Documentation Settings section.
  4. Click the Update button at the bottom of the page to save your changes.

  5. Under the Documents tab, you will see the following changes:
    • A new link in the left side navigation called Create a Doc [Beta] will appear.

      The Create a Doc Beta link will be the first link in the left side navigation.
    • The documents table will contain a link to Edit beta, which will appear next to the standard Edit link.

      The Edit beta link will be the second link in the Edit column.
    • When viewing an individual document, you will have a link to Edit beta in the row of document action buttons/links, which will appear next to the standard Edit link.

      The Edit beta link will be the second link in the row of doc action links and buttons.
