Editing Modes
Use the Content Editor in one of four different modes, each of which offers increased ability to interact with a topic.
You switch between editing modes by using the editing modes menu in the top-right corner of the Content Editor.
- Viewing
- Viewing mode is read-only. In viewing mode, you can only see the content of a topic but cannot leave comments, suggestions, or make changes to the content.
- Commenting
- Commenting mode enables you to leave comments on the content in a topic, but you cannot change any of the source content or suggest changes directly.

- Suggesting mode enables you to leave inline, tracked changes, which can be accepted or rejected. Heretto CCMS underlines suggested additions and strikes through suggested deletions. Each user's suggestions appear in a different color. This mode prevents users from editing attributes.

- Editing mode provides full editing privileges. Editing mode provides users the ability to add elements, attributes, and content. Any content added or changes you make while in editing mode are immediately part of the source content.
