Version Notes: CMS 10.6.378+ vs. CMS 10.6.308–10.6.342
  • CMS 10.6.378+: Content changes and dependencies are based on the DITA asset's latest checked-in version and versions marked to publishing targets. At publish time, the DITA publishing pipeline processes the marked version, including all content and dependencies.
  • CMS 10.6.308–10.6.342: Content changes and dependencies are based only on the latest version of the DITA asset. At publish time, the DITA publishing pipeline always processes the latest checked-in version, regardless of which version is marked for publish.

See CMS DITA Versioning Functionality for more details about these changes.

Publish

Publishes the aliased DITA asset to its marked publishing targets. Choose the target where you want to run the publish.

See Publishing DITA in Ingeniux CMS for details about DITA publishing.
