extendedWYSIWYGwill display the about dialog and give you additional informations to the installed release number and show you the CHANGELOG.Settingswill display the configuration dialog of extendedWYSIWYG
If you switch Create Archive Files in the settings to Yes extendedWYSIWYG will create the protected directory /media/wysiwyg_archive and start to store WYSIWYG sections which get the status BACKUP as HTML files. This function will also copy all embedded images. Create Archive Files is intended to document all changes like a time machine so it will need some disk space.

![The action bar below the WYSIWYG editor] 21
It's easy to handle. If you change the content, deselect the publish checkbox and save the section, the content will stored as UNPUBLISHED. This mean, that this content is only present in your WYSIWYG editor but not published at the website. The next time you open this section for edit, the WYSIWYG editor will show you the unpublished content - you can edit ahead. If you want to publish the content just check publish and save the section.
In the dropdown you can select previous versions - marked as BACKUP, the actual published content - marked as ACTIVE or not published content - marked as UNPUBLISHED.
