Two things track an article
Narranta tracks two separate things: the state of the work and the folder it lives in. They change independently, which is why an article can be a draft that sits in the current folder, or a published article that you later move to the archive.
States
| State | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Draft | Work in progress. Not visible on the public site. |
| In review | Submitted to a reviewer. It appears in the Reviews area for whoever can review it. |
| Approved | The review is finished. Approval is a real stage, not a comment, so everyone can see the article is cleared. |
| Published | Live on the public site once its publish date has passed. |
| Rejected | Sent back for changes. The author can edit and resubmit. |
| Withdrawn | Removed from the publishing flow without being deleted. |
Folders
| Folder | What it holds |
|---|---|
| Current | Active articles, whether draft, in review, or published. |
| Draft | Work you are keeping out of the main list for now. |
| Assigned | Work assigned to a team member through the pipeline. |
| Archive | Finished or retired articles you want to keep. |
| Trash | Articles you have removed. Trashed articles disappear from the public site and stop counting toward your plan limit. |
Review and approval
- The author chooses Submit for review on the article.
- A reviewer opens Reviews, reads the draft, and leaves comments directly on paragraphs or images.
- Each comment is a thread. Resolve it when the point has been addressed, so open feedback stays visible.
- The reviewer either approves the article or asks for changes. Either way, the decision is recorded in the article's state.
- Once approved, the article can be scheduled or published.
Who can do what
- Authors can edit their own articles and move them forward.
- Reviewers need review permissions for the relevant route or team.
- Approval and publishing depend on the permissions attached to your role.
Note: Only published articles that are not in the trash appear on the public site, in the sitemap, and in feeds. Moving an article to the trash removes it from all three.
