• Site Datasource The name of the ColdFusion datasource for thsi site.
• Database Version: The type and version number of the database supporting this site.
• Site Schema Version: The CommonSpot database schema version currently in use.
• Site Type: Whether this site resides at the Web root (/). Sites of this type are served as www.yoursite.com. See Directory Structures within CommonSpot and New Site Configuration.

Authoring State: Enables/disables site-wide authoring. You (or a scheduled process) can temporarily disable authoring within all sites or a given subsite. Use this option for periodic site maintenance.You need to disable authoring for site upgrades, migration or database conversion. Options here are identical to those available for setting the server-wide authoring state, but affect the current site/subsite only. See Authoring State for details on using this option.

Once you disable authoring, users will not be able to go into author, edit, or approve mode on any page contained within the suspended subsite(s). During the warning period any action in author, edit, or approve mode invokes either a default or custom JavaScript alert.
