Hi,

Is there a feature that allows users to hide multiple nodes at the same time ?

And can content be published with hidden status ?

Thanks !

This doc page explains how the hide functionality works.
A nice trick is to create a folder and to hide it. Publish all your new material in this folder (it will be hidden by the parent) and then unhide the folder when you are done. An alternative is to just move the new stuff to the real (visible) location when you are done.

Yes I checked that already. But here's the situation :
I have a blog class contains articles that themselves contains comments.

Comments should not be displayed before being validated by a moderator. I've been thinking of adding an "active status" to my content class but that's mean that for each comment, the moderator as to
- "Edit" content
- check/uncheck status box
- then validate and that's not what has been defined in the specifications...

You can create a simple workflow for approving new content. Check this tutorial.

Thanks Lukasz but in my case, I'm building a custom back-office and adding such feature means adding new templates that doesnt fit to the specifications.
And with this workflow, the moderator still needs to validate comments one by one.
