Draft, publish, and version your storefront descriptions
A governed backend workflow for the native Odoo website description: draft, preview, publish, template, version, and bulk-update product copy without leaving the product form.
The problem
Catalog and marketing teams write storefront copy for hundreds of SKUs, but Odoo pushes every edit through the live website builder — one product at a time, with no draft state, no history, and no way to confirm the form matches what shoppers actually see.
The solution
This app adds a governed draft-to-publish workflow on top of the native website description: edit in the backend, preview before it goes live, publish with one click, and reuse templates or bulk-update many products at once.
Everything you need to govern storefront copy
Every capability below is implemented in the module.
Draft and Publish Workflow
Edit the storefront description in a backend draft field, see an at-a-glance Published / Unpublished changes badge, and publish to the live website description with one click.
Reusable Description Templates
Build a library of rich-text description templates and apply any of them to a product in one action, keeping storefront copy consistent across the catalog.
Automatic Version History
Every publish snapshots the previous live description, so editors can always see who changed a product's copy and when.
One-Click Restore
Restore any prior version straight from the history list — the current live copy is snapshotted first, so nothing is ever lost.
Bulk Update Wizard
Apply a template or a fixed description to many selected products at once, with an option to publish immediately, right from the product list Actions menu.
Configurable Version Retention
Set how many versions to keep per product from Settings — trim old snapshots automatically or keep the full history.
Discard Draft
Revert an in-progress draft back to the live description in one click when a change is abandoned.
Preview on Website
Open the live storefront page in a new tab straight from the product form to confirm exactly how a description reads before publishing.
Role-Based Access
Two dedicated groups separate who can edit and publish descriptions from who can manage templates and run bulk updates.
How it works
Write the Draft
Open a product, go to the Website Copy tab, and write or apply a template in the draft editor.
Preview and Publish
Open the live page to check the copy, then click Publish to push the draft to the storefront.
Reuse and Bulk-Apply
Save a template from any product, then apply it — or a fixed description — to many products at once.
Track and Restore
Every publish is versioned automatically; browse the history and restore any prior copy in one click.

No. It manages the same native website description field the storefront already renders, adding a draft, publish, template, and version layer on top of it — there are no new frontend templates to maintain.
