## Space administration - publishing settings

The source space publishing dashboard is used to set the target space for publishing. When two spaces are linked (one as a source space and one as a target space),

- The **source space publishing settings** are used to manage the publishing configuration and publish all the pages in the space
- The **target space publishing settings** display confirmation that the space is linked as a target space and a link to the source space

### Source space publishing settings

A space administrator can use the [source space publishing settings](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/646644089) to add the target space, manage the publishing configuration, and publish all the pages in the space.

#### Configuration settings

The app space settings in the source space can be used to

- [enable all publishing](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/646251946) from the current space to a target space
- [configure a target space](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/646219345) for publishing
- Select the user performing the publishing action
  - dropdown menu option to select the [user permissions for publishing to use the app add-on user](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/1433075760) or the publishing user permissions in the target space
- enable or prevent [copying of content properties](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/646775243) when publishing a page
- [Ignore Target Changes](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/2376368274) - when this setting is active, a change made on a published and synced target space page is ignored.
- Enable [single-page publishing ](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/646252212)for the space to allow page editors to publish on a page-by-page basis
- enable [publishing of only pages in the final state of an applied Comala workflow](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/1367900293)

#### Space publishing

A space administrator can publish the whole space using the[ space publishing option](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/647038008).

On publishing the whole space, **Space Publishing** is appended with a confirmation of the last whole space publish action.

The confirmation message includes

- the number of pages published
- the target space name
- user who undertook the **Publish space** action
- date and time

The [space publishing report](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/pages/createpage.action?spaceKey=cpcd&title=Space%20publishing%20report&linkCreation=true&fromPageId=614695347) can be viewed by choosing the **See details** link.

> 📝 Incomplete publishing is denoted by a warning icon with the number of pages published out of the total number of pages that were part of the whole space publishing action.

Pages in the source space *with restrictions for the space administrator user* undertaking the **Publish space **are not published and are not included in the space report.

### Target space publishing settings

Once a space has been configured as a target space, this target space cannot be configured as a source space for publishing.

The [target space publishing settings](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CPCL/pages/647004780) display a message confirming the space as a target space for publishing, including

- source space name and link
- **Edit configuration on the Draft Space** link to the source space app settings
