Multiple Editors on a Page

You are able to share pages with other users in the same OneMob organization, but you can also give access to someone else in your organization to edit a page that you both share. Like other popular editors in the web, OneMob now also has the capability to allow multiple editors on a single page. Look at the information below for everything about multiple editors on a page.

Share a Page and allow Editing Capabilities

1. Go to Pages tab
2. Select a Page to share and allow editing capabilities for another user in the same organization
3. Hover over the page and click on the three dots that appear on the right hand side > click Set Access from the selections in the drop down
   
   
   • If you are in the Page Editor for the page already click the Set Access button that is at the top right of the window
     
4. In the Set Access window type the email of the user you would like to share the page with and allow to have editing capabilities > click their name in the drop down to populate them below the title of the page
   
   
   
   • After typing one user email you are able to input another email in and allow multiple users to have editing capabilities on the page. 
     
   • Note: You are ONLY able to give viewing capabilities to Teams and to the Organization. If you choose to include a team or the organization there will not be a hyperlink to the right of the name (as seen on individual emails).
     
5. Notice how each individual email when populated has the sharing settings set to 'can view'. To change this setting to allow the individual(s) editing capabilities over the page you are sharing click on the 'can view' hyperlink > in the drop down select 'can edit' for each individual you would like to have editing capabilities
   
   
6. Notify user(s) that they received content from you by toggling the notification toggle to ON. You can include a short notification text in the text box below, but it is not necessary. The user(s) will receive an email notifying them of the shared content.
   • Note: If you decide to share content "To your organization" and select to toggle this notification feature ON it will send an email to the entire organization. Use this feature with caution.
7. Click Set Access

The page that was shared will now have a Icon to recognize it has been shared (either to just one individual, a team, or the entire organization). 

Share a Page and only allow Viewing Capabilities

1. Follow steps 1-3 in the section above
2. In the Set Access window type the email of the user you would like to share the page with and allow to have viewing capabilities > click their name in the drop down to populate them below the title of the page
   
   
   • After typing one user email you are able to input another email in and allow multiple users to have editing capabilities on the page. If you decide to include a Team or Organization they will not have a hyperlink to the right of their name (as seen on individual emails). Teams and Organizations are automatically set to 'can view' (although no hyperlink is to the right of the name).
     
3. Notify user(s) that they received content from you by toggling the notification toggle to ON. You can include a short notification text in the text box below, but it is not necessary. The user(s) will receive an email notifying them of the shared content.
   • Note: If you decide to share content "To your organization" and select to toggle this notification feature ON it will send an email to the entire organization. Use this feature with caution.

How can I edit a page that was shared with me?

• Go to Pages tab
• Check the box to the right of 'My pages', it should look like the image below. If you want to declutter uncheck the box to the left of 'My pages'. 
  
  
  • You can also narrow the search by clicking on the 'everyone' hyperlink and in the drop down selecting a Team you are a part of. 
  • Pro tip: Use the search bar to look for the title of the page!
• Pages that you are able to edit can be differentiated by a blue pencil icon that is to the right of the name of the user that first created the page.
• Click on the page that you would like to edit. Any changes made to the page will automatically be adjusted for all users who have viewing/editing capabilities on that page.

Why am I getting a pop-up that says "This page is currently being edited by (name here)"?

Although we have released the ability for multiple editors to edit one page, our engineers are still working for the most practical solution on how to have multiple editors be editing the same page at the same time. In the meantime, we show the following pop-up message if there is another user editing the page and you try to access that page to edit:

When this message is in view you have the options to Go back or Try again. By clicking Go back you will be directed back to the Pages tab where you can continue to work on another page or decide to complete a different task in OneMob. By clicking Try again you will only be given access to edit the page once the user who is currently editing the page leaves. If the need to edit the page is immediate contact that user outside of OneMob to do so.
