I tried your suggestions here are my thoughts:

"1. If I only modify page properties, it will not not consistently
activate the changes on the public instance."

Per points 1 & 2: By "page properties" do you mean "paragraph properties" or do 
you mean something else? Isn't this cumbersome for you? I assume you mean that 
you delete a paragraph and then add it again in order to get the activation to 
work. If this is the case isn't it a pain to recreate paragraphs all the time? 
If this is Magnolia's default behavior why have the "edit" button at all?

Per points 3 through 3.4 I tried as you suggested. However, with version 3.0 I 
do not see the same type of URL in the Browser window showing AdminCentral. 
Note that the "&pathSelected" is not there. The URL is:

http://localhost:8080/magnoliaAuthor/.magnolia/adminCentral.html?mgnlCK=1154630634891

I have tried this on both Linux and Windows platforms and see the same 
behavior. I suspect there is a serious problem with magnolia 3.0 RC2 in this 
regard. Is there anyone using v3.0 that is not having this problem?

Michael Davis,

Sharing some things I've discovered when there are problems activating
pages with Magnolia version 2.1:

1. If I only modify page properties, it will not not consistently
activate the changes on the public instance.

2. If I add/remove elements on a page, it will usually activate the
changes on the public instance.

3. Sometimes, I've found that using Internet Explorer works best when
activating pages (instead of Firefox)

3.1. Open a page and edit something in it

3.2. Click the "AdminCentral" button at the top of the page

3.3. Note that newly spawned window now has a specific ID and path
parameter appended to the URL, for example
mgnlCK=1154531045758&pathSelected=/index

3.4. Right click on the node you edited and activate
