Content Section Settings

Content Sections have three types of settings that can be applied when adding it to a template:

Lock Content after Merge

If this option is enabled, it prevents users from editing the stitched content of the Content Section in the merged document. This option is a prerequisite in allowing Content Sections to be refreshed.

 

Note:

• The entire Content Section will be un-editable with this setting applied.
• This setting is only available for DocGeneration Content Sections.

Refresh Content after Merge

If this option is enabled, it allows users to re-merge the Content Section (if altered) into the merged document, should the document be refreshed via the ribbon in SharePoint.

Note:

This setting is available for both Document and Slide Generation Content Sections.

Merge Published Version - **NEW**

Build first implemented in: 14.4.0.7 & 15.2.0.3

If this option is enabled, the product will only merge published versions of the document or template that is the content section, not the latest draft version.

Note:

• This option will only be available when adding a Word Document/Presentations Content Section (which is a document/presentation or template living in a SharePoint Library) to the template.
• This setting is available for both Document and Slide Generation Content Sections.
