Making yourself a site administrator Creating sitewide settings, including rollbacks Working with groups Granting group access Creating connection keys

f you re set up to be a Contribute 2 site administrator, you can do everything a regular user can do edit existing pages and make new ones but you can also control who the regular users are, what access they have to a site, and more A site may have multiple administrators as well as multiple users All administrators have the same privileges, including the privilege to set up groups of users with distinct privileges If reading that last sentence makes you feel like you ve just stumbled into a hall of mirrors, don t worry Read on, and you ll be a site administrator in no time

You can set yourself up as an administrator, or you can set someone else up as an administrator But first things first: If you want to make site administrators of your colleagues, you have to make yourself a site administrator first By the way, if you want to be an administrator on a site that already has one, you ll need that site s administrator to set you up with administrator privileges Though you may be able to set yourself up as site administrator at any time by editing your settings, we assume for the purposes of this book that you are setting yourself up as an administrator at the same time you are making your first connection to the site in Contribute, and that nobody else has yet done so To set yourself up as an administrator, just follow these steps:

Browser by typing or pasting a URL (for example, http://www mysitecom) into the Address text field and pressing Enter or clicking the Go button You can use Contribute s Browser to view any site on the Web, but you can only set up a connection to a site if you have FTP information for that site

button at the bottom of the wizard The User Information screen appears For more information about connection keys, see the Creating Connection Keys to Provide Access to Contributors section, later in this chapter

Your name may already appear The name in this field will identify you to other contributors to your site, if there are any

6 If necessary, enter the URL (http://wwwmysitecom, for example)

for the Web site you ll be editing by typing it or pasting it into the text field Click Next The URL should be there already, because you browsed to the site to start the connection process When you click Next, the Connection Information screen appears in the wizard

You have the following options: FTP, Secure FTP (SFTP), and Local/ Network Depending on what you choose, different text fields appear below the drop-down list As you can see in Figure 3-2, we entered SFTP
