Learning: Standard Triggers

A trigger is associated with the function of a module – eg. sending a piece of content for publishing. It starts the workflow either before the function starts or after it has been completed. Here’s a list of standard triggers.

The first trigger will cause an event to be performed before a piece of content is published, eg. you would use this to implement an approval process before a content is visible on the site.
