Creating specific version number of page

[Mshaji]

I am trying to create a specific version number of the page. Current version of the page is 2.6. On the side kick I have entered following in versioning tab

Label: 5

Comment: Versioning whole number

I expect to see Version 5 created, but I see version 2.7 is created. Why it is not taking the version I entered and going to next in the series.

Is there any configuration? How do I have whole integers 1, 2, 3, 4, .. as version no decimals when it is created.

Thanks

I think label is different from version, I couldn't find any documentation on how to configure version numbers.

Is there any way we can format version numbers?

/bin/wcmcommand createVersion has parameters to set label and comment, there is no parameter to set version number.

Typically a page is automatically assigned a version when you activate it. However - it also seems that the version is specified by entering a label value - as shown here:

Version numbers are calculated from the base on top of which you are creating a version.

Example: if your current version is 2.6, then the new version would be 2.7

The APIs only allow us to specify

• path of the resource
• Version Label
