One editor at a time

Only one editor can edit a page at a time. When a editor is working on a page, Forestry will “lock” the page until the editor saves or discards her changes.

This prevents another editor from accidently overwriting the work of another. Some good practices:

• Do not work in Forestry in multiple tabs or windows. Use only one window.
• When editing a page, save your changes with completed.
• If you are “just looking” at a page, and have no changes to make, when finished, click page to the Pages list view.
• If a document is locked, you’ll have to ask the editor to save his or her changes.
