Asynchronous publishing is disabled by default and needs to be enabled by overriding a setting in content.ini. Please enter the setting as described below:

[PublishingSettings]
 # Enable/Disable the asynchronous publishing feature
 AsynchronousPublishing=enabled

Customize the queue size

In the PublishingSettings you can also the size of the queue by deciding how many parallel publishing operations should be allowed:

[PublishingSettings]
 # how many parallel publishing operations should be allowed
 # default: 10
 PublishingProcessSlots=10

Making the feature optional

You disable the eZ Asynchronous Publishing feature through the same INI setting in content.ini:

[PublishingSettings]
 # Enable/Disable the asynchronous publishing feature
 AsynchronousPublishing=disabled

If disabled, the operation won't be deferred to the daemon at all, and publishing will happen in real time. This also allows siteaccess based enabling/disabling of the feature.
