# Multi-User Collaboration

Stop worrying if someone else is editing the same article at the same time and start enjoying a collaborative authoring process. Each field automatically locks as a user begins to edit, and unlocks when they leave or go idle.

## Overview


**Features include:**

- Presence indicators when multiple users are editing the same entry
- Field locking when another user begins editing
- Content changes are updated in real-time for all users
