## Overview

**Readers** are users

- who have been assigned to undertake a read confirmation
- who have undertaken a read confirmation

Once a user is assigned as a reader, the overall read confirmation status is only **CONFIRMED **when all assigned readers have confirmed the content.

## Assigned readers

Page editors can use the [read confirmation popup](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CRCCL/pages/655756829) to [assign one or more users as a reader](https://appfire.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/CRCCL/pages/656576382) for a read confirmation added to a page or blog post.

Search for a user and choose the **+ **symbol to add as a reader

The popup will display an option to **Confirm** when the reader views the content.

Additional users can be assigned as readers users and can still confirm the read confirmation but the overall status of the read confirmation status will remain **PENDING** or **PARTIAL** until all the assigned readers have confirmed the read confirmation.

The current read confirmation status for each reader is displayed in the read confirmation popup

If the content is edited

- the macro read confirmation will notify all assigned readers (both readers who have confirmed and readers who have not confirmed) that a new read confirmation request is required
- the simple read confirmation will need to requested by assigning at least one reader for the new version. No readers are retained but details of the last read confirmation undertaken by each reader are retained in the read confirmation popup.
