Note: Items created through the Create District Version option (i.e. customized TEKS RS component) and items created from scratch using the 'Create New' button will both be displayed in this list.

Items can be in 4 different statuses:

Draft - item has not been made available to district users
Published - item has been made available to district users
Taken Offline - item was made available to district users at some point, but taken offline because it is no longer needed or changes need to be made
Archived - item has been stored for future retrieval, but removed from general search results

To the right of each item in the results list is the Options button. Clicking this provides a menu of available options for that component.

From here, you have the capability to perform any of the following actions:

Preview – displays the dynamic version of the component
Edit – allows you to modify any part of the component
Copy - creates an exact copy of the component allowing users to make modifications for alternate use
Publish History - displays a list of each time the component has been published/unpublished, including date/time and user name
Archive - stores the component for future retrieval, but removes it from the general search (search filter provided; see example below)
Delete – deletes the item from the system

NOTE: Archived content items (i.e. shaded in a darker color) will have the "Archived" status and be hidden from the general search. However, use the Show Archived filter to view any previously archived items.
