Help with editing content & File Manager

Version 1.1.2

Hi,

Just added CMSMadeSimple to my site, which is just for the company department I work in.

Im still learning, but wanted to know if i can do the following. Each morning, things need changing in certain pages of the site i.e. like a picture from one colour to another.

I'm the only one who knows anything about web design so was hoping anyone could log in the admin part of CMS, see the page there trying to edit as WYSIWYG, change the picture, save the page and then come out of CMS. Then when you go on to the live version of my website it would be updated with the new picture?

Thanks

Also, i'm having problems with with file manager. I click the browse button, then navigate to the folder I need to open to get the actual file i want to upload but get the following error :-
"File not found. Please verify the correct file name was given."

The only thing I can think of, is that i'm searching a web folder, as we use sharepoint and save reports there, and presume this isn't supported?

Thanks again.

Yup that's the way it works, when you hit apply or submit it goes live instantly...

From my experience the file needs to be on the server in uploads or on your computer to "Browse" to it, unless you know the URL to it then put the URL in the link dialog box , ie,... http://multiintech.com/NovaScotiaCooler.JPG ...

Thanks for the reply Mark.

My question regarding logging into CMS and users editing pages. I already have a website, so want to use these pages as the pages users edit. How can i get the pages I wanted editing on to CMS admin part  ???

Thanks again,
