You are on the View tab (the website's default). You have to go to the Contents tab. There you will see several columns, one headed "State", and you can select a file and go to a page .

I will revise the instructions on the howto_retract page to include that info. It was added some time ago to some of the other howto pages (including howto_upload), but obviously was missed on others, including the one on retracting.

Thanks for catching this!

Hi Jean,

The instructions at http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/resources/howto_retract confuse me at point 1.

It says "Go to the file in question"

At this location |http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/writer/draft_pub/ | or here |http://oooauthors.org/en/authors/userguide2/writer/published_final/| it reads something like "These chapters of the Writer Guide have been checked against OOo2.0. Those marked "visible" have been checked against 2.0.2 or are being revised. Any chapter marked "published" still needs to be reviewed against 2.0.2."

Where are they marked "visible" or "published"

I'm assuming I need to select a file in order to retract it. Yet selecting a file automatically begins the downloading of it.
And I dont see where I am able to change its state.

Could you please steer me in the right direction.

Bob

Thanks, Bob! I am the temporary maintainer of this chapter, so I will have a look at your review in the next few days and get back to you.

Note: When you take out a chapter for review, please "retract" it so its state changes from "published" to "visible". That way other people will know someone is working on it. The contributors' page has a link to instructions on how to retract a file.
