Completing the Publish To Website dialog box options (Windows only)

Use the Publish To Website dialog box to publish the contents of the document in Microsoft Word, Excel, or Outlook to your web site.

  1. To select the settings for publishing the document, do the following:

    1. Select a web site where you want to publish the file.

      Note: If you do not have a connection to your website before you publish a document, you can always create one by selecting Create New Connection in the Select pop-up menu in the Publish To Website dialog box. For more information on creating a website connection, see Create a website connection.

    2. Select a location for storing the file.

    3. Enter a filename.

      Note: The filename must not have any spaces, tabs, or alphanumeric characters.

    4. Select a format.

    5. Click the Choose Template button. The Choose Template dialog box appears.

      If you do not click the Choose Template button in the Publish To Website dialog box, the template that was last used to publish a Microsoft Office document is associated with the document you are currently publishing. In addition, if the template does not match the template on the server, Contribute displays the Download Template dialog box. You can choose to do one of the following:

      • Click the Publish Using The Old Template button to publish the document using the old template.

      • Click the Download And Publish button to download the updated template from the server, and then publish the document.

      Note: The Choose Template button is disabled when the .doc format is selected.

    6. Select a template from the list of available templates.

      A preview of the selected template appears in the Preview box.

    7. If the template you select for publishing a Microsoft Office document to a website has been updated on the server, the Open As New Page dialog box appears. You can choose to publish using the old template, or download the updated template available on the server, and then publish the document.

    8. Select a template region from the list of editable regions available in the selected template.

      This list is disabled if you select _blank template.

    9. Click the Refresh Templates button, and select one of the following options to update your list of templates and editable regions in a selected template:

      For this website
      to view an updated list of templates for the selected website
