Original date saved as approved
After clicking the Save & Republish button, the Published Section shows the following:
Name of the person who edited the published summary

5. To view all prior edits:
Click on the "View Published Edits History" link
This will take you to a new tab with a side by side comparison of the current Published Summary and its previous version.
The new tab that opens after clicking the View Published Edits History link includes a before/after comparison of the Published Summary. Before fields (left) are in grey, after fields (right) are in blue. History is sorted in reverse order, with most recent edits at the top of the tab. Any text that was removed from the prior evidence summary is highlighted in red on the before side of the Published Summary. Any text added to the re-published evidence summary is highlighted in green on the after side of the Published Summary.
Note: before and after contents of other fields in Published Summary are not highlighted, but are viewable (contributor, approver, etc)
In the event that text gets replaced between publish events, both before and after evidence summaries will highlight the impacted text (e.g., punctuation, capitalization or word changes).
This before/after view is available for every edit made to the Published Summary.
Changes to the published summary will result in minor incremental version changes to the curation record, and will be published to the website.
