The Contribute workflow

Contribute uses a browse-edit-publish workflow to help you easily find the page you want to edit, 
make changes to the page, and then update the page on your website.

Note: 

You must connect to a website before you can edit and publish pages on that website. For more information, 

see “Connecting to a website” on page 18.

Here’s an overview of the Contribute workflow:

1. Browse to a page.

 Use the Contribute browser to find the web page you want to edit. The 

browser functions as other web browsers, such as Internet Explorer, and has a familiar look and 
feel. The browser toolbar has the normal navigation buttons, plus a Choose button to help you 
navigate to files that aren’t linked on your website. You can create bookmarks in Contribute and 
view your Microsoft Internet Explorer bookmarks. You can also use shortcuts in the Pages panel 
in the sidebar to quickly access any current drafts.

2. Edit your content. 

When you find the page you want to edit, you click the Edit Page button to 

open the page in the Contribute editor. Contribute copies the file from your web server and locks 
it on the server so that no one else can edit the page while you’re working on it. 

You use the Contribute editor as you use a word processor to edit text, images, tables, and links in 
the page. You can even add a Word or Excel document to your website. The toolbar contains 
familiar editing buttons, plus buttons for you to save your edits until later, cancel your edits, or 
publish your edits to the website.

3. Publish the changes. 

When you finish editing your page, you are ready to publish the page to 

your website. All you have to do is click the Publish button and Contribute replaces the existing 
page on your web server with your edited version so that it is live on your website. Contribute also 
unlocks the file on the server so that other users can edit the page if necessary.

Learning Macromedia Contribute

Contribute includes a variety of media resources to help you learn the program quickly. These 
resources include an online help system, a tutorial, a printed Quick Start guide, and the How Do 
I reference panel.

For information about all of these resources, see “Contribute resources” on page 15. If you’re 
wondering which resource to start with, see “Where to start” on page 14.

Where to start

The Contribute resources you start with and use regularly depend on what your role is in 
using Contribute.

Contribute website administrators

 should start with the Quick Start guide to install Contribute 

and help users get connected. As you use Contribute, refer to the How Do I panel for quick steps 
to complete common administration tasks, and refer to the online help to get more detailed 
information about Contribute administration tasks and features.

Contribute users

 should start with the Quick Start guide to understand how to use Contribute to 

complete basic tasks. Then, complete the tutorial to update some sample web pages and learn 
more about Contribute. As you use Contribute, refer to the How Do I panel for quick steps to 
complete common tasks, and refer to the online help to get more detailed and complete 
information about Contribute tasks and features.

For more information about all the resources, see “Contribute resources” on page 15.
