[Solved] Best way for user to create content?

Post by SpokaneDude »

I'm very, very new to CMS and have chosen CMSMS to create a site for a client who wants to control the updating of content. I have just started reading the docs, will start on a sample site next, and then once I have a feel for it, will start on my client's site. (btw, I have purchased Sofia's book)

My question is: what's the best program for my "computer illiterate" client to use to update the content of pages once I get the site built. (It's for a store with constantly changing stock).

Hi SpokaneDude, the client only needs a modern browser. Log in, edit and save. That's all.

Hi Frank... so far, in reading the docs, I don't really see a comprehensive "getting started" that would explain that from the beginning to the end. Am I missing something?

Maybe it's not literally said, but CMSMS is a web based Content Management System. To install, to set up and to maintain you only need a modern browser. For you as designer a web design program may be helpful, but it's not necessary.
You client will log in to the website and can edit any page that he is entitled to by using an edit screen.
Did you find the wiki? See the menu at the top of this page: Suport > Documentation. From there look through the menus of the wiki itself.
You, as site builder, would be Administrator and Designer, your client would be an Editor.

Yes, I found the wiki... thanks for your help.. I appreciate it.

Now, how do I mark this as "solved"?
