Locking assets or folders

Lock assets or folders to prevent other users from changing them for a certain period. Assets are locked automatically when you export them and when you save changes in Browser Workbench or in the Freeform Editor.

Procedure

  1. Open WorldServer Explorer.
  2. Select the folder or the assets that you want to lock.
  3. Select Asset > Lock.
  4. In the Lock Folders or Assets dialog box, select OK.

What to do next

To check that the assets have been locked successfully, right-click the folder where they are located, and then select Refresh. Your name should be displayed in the Locked By column next to each asset that you locked.
