Update author page in workflow:

  • Navigate to digital.gov/workflow
  • Authenticate with GitHub

If editing an existing author:

  • Search for the author
    • Searching for first name and last name didn’t work for me. (Just use first name?)
  • Make the change in the author form UI and click Save
    • This added a PR to digital.gov with the tag of netlify-cms/draft
    • All the normal PR checks will kick-off

If creating a new author:

  • Click the new author button
  • Fill-in the appropriate fields
  • When done, click the save button at the top of the screen
    • Clicking save will create a draft PR for this entry with the tag of netlify-cms/draft
    • All the normal PR checks will kick-off
