Can't I set a workflow for Web Content contents?

Reding this I thought I found this must-have function, but I can set workflow for, for example, Documents and media contents, but not for Web cotents, which includes Basic web contents.

It is still there, but you define web content workflows under the web content control panel.

Hm, I think there's something I'm misunderstanding.

When I go to Documents and Media, y can click in Options -> Edit and there is the workflow.
When I go to Web Content, there is no Edit or other option for Workflow, not even for the more accurate Basic Web Content structure. I can't neither see the option to create the folders which you mentioned.

I dont know what are you refering at with "web content control panel", options are Structures, Templates, Feeds, Export / Import and configuration. If you refer to admin interface's Control Panel - Configuration - Workflow Configuration, there's where there isn't a setting for Web Contents, there are Blogs Entry, Calendar Event, Comments, Message Boards Message, Page Revision, User, Wiki Page.

Thanks!

Hm, you mean at admin interface - Site - Content - Web Content? In the Options button I see Structures, Templates, Feeds, Export / Import and Configuration, but it isn't in any of these options, neither for each specific structure (p.e. Basic Web Content). I neither can't see the option to create folders, but anyway if workflow is only working for files in folders, somebody could just create a content outside of the folder and publish it without passing the desired workflow.

Edit: Sorry for doubleposting, unintentionally pressed Cancel, fast I pressed Publish, and page charged before posting so I thought it was lost emoticon

IIRC you define it via the dropdown on the folders - the folders define the workflow for the contents.

But again, users will be free to post out of the folders without a reviewer's control emoticon

How could I make a plugin to allow a workflow for the entire web contents? Or making this will make the DB to behave weirdly?

There should also be a similar option to configure workflow for the overriding parent folder.

When you are on the "Home" folder in web content, choose the "i" icon button to the right, will be the left most button from the list. That opens the info sidepanel with the peapod that can get you to the edit pane. Once in there you can assign the workflow.

Many thanks! I don't know why is this option there and not in the Options button as it is for the other types of contents emoticon
