    Default Track Changes During Review

    We finally have contribute 3.1 running. We send drafts of news articles around
    between 5 of us to check for proof-reading, and such.

    The problem is we don't know what has been changed. We try to include
    messages in the message box when sending, but it is really hard to do it for
    articles that are very long. In the end we all end up re-reading the entire
    article numerous times looking for the changes made.

    Is there any feature in CT3.1 that functions like Microsoft Word's track
    changes features?? That would be ideal!

    No. (And I'm not sure if thats even coming, but it sure would be nice.)

    What you could do is, ask the administrator to create a new CSS class in the
    styles menu. Then, where a change has been made, apply that style to the text
    so it'll stand out.

    For instance, this would do nicely I think:

    .change {
    background-color:yellow; font-weight:bold;
    border:solid 3px red;
    }

    If you have a staging server, make sure this CSS class does not get included
    on the web version. Wouldn't want web users seeing the ugly bold text with a
    yellow background and red borders ;-)
