Discussions

Discussions are like a forum attached to a piece of content. Wherever the document is moved, the discussion goes with it. They provide an ideal way to record decisions or annotations about a document without changing the content.
  1. Navigate to the content item system-overview.html (now located in the Published space).
  2. In the Content Items pane, click Menu for this item and select Start Discussion.

  4. To view a discussion on an item, click View Discussions(View Discussions) associated with the content item.

If you check out a document that has a discussion, the working draft will not have that discussion. However, if you start a discussion on a working copy when it is checked in, the discussion is added to the original item with a date stamp. While content is checked out, the original content is locked but discussions can still continue on it.
