When publishing content, one or more glossaries, and one or more websites in a batch operation, the following processing order is followed:
- All files in the specified inbox are read.
- If the inbox contains a glossary, definitions are updated in content and new terms are retrieved (provided these options are enabled in the Batch Publish... window). This step is repeated for each glossary selected to be published.
- Documents and courses are published. Only updated content is published if Express Publish is selected.
- If the inbox contains a website, the website is updated and published. This step is repeated for each website selected to be published.
