Approve from a row

Photo captions and follow-ups open where they stand and finish there. One press, and you land back on the page you pressed it from.

What you need first

  • A drafted caption or a due follow-up on the list

Two of the seven kinds of row do not send you anywhere. By the end of this page you will have read a drafted caption against its photo and approved it without leaving the list you were working through.

Find a row with a button on it

A caption row carries Approve. A due follow-up carries Copy email and Mark as sent. Every other kind links back to the job, because a document is read where it was built.

The Needs you card with a caption row carrying Approve and a follow-up row carrying Copy email and Mark as sent
  1. 1A due follow-up, copied and marked sent here
  2. 2A drafted caption, approved here

Open the caption row to read it

Click the row and it expands in place. The drafted words appear with the photo they were written for, because a caption is read against its picture or it is not being reviewed at all.

A photo caption row opened in the inbox, with the drafted words and the buttons that approve or reject them
  1. 1The drafted words, editable before you approve
  2. 2Approve, which marks them fit to go out
  3. 3Discarding clears the caption and keeps the photo

Click Approve

Approving marks the words fit to go out with the photo. The row leaves the list and you stay exactly where you were, on the page you pressed it from, with the rest of the list still in front of you.

Click Discard if the words are wrong

Discarding clears the caption and keeps the photo, which the line under the buttons says. Nothing about the build step changes.

Use Open project when you want the whole job

Beside the two actions is Open project, for the times when the row is not the whole question and you want the record behind it.

Expect the same rows in three places

The dashboard, the Inbox and, for follow-ups, the Follow-ups page all draw the same row. Finishing it anywhere finishes it everywhere, because there is one list underneath and three windows onto it.

What happens next

That is the desk. The rest of this section is the phone, starting with logging a lead from a driveway.
