The Contribute sidebar

The Contribute sidebar makes it easy to switch between editing and browsing, and gives you quick access to your drafts. You can also use the sidebar to get quick instructions for performing tasks in Contribute.

The sidebar has two parts:

The Pages panel
Gives you access to the web browser and all drafts you’re currently editing. There is also a link to the Draft Console, which shows the status of your drafts.
Note: The Draft Console is not available if your website doesn’t have an administrator assigned.

The How Do I panel
Provides quick step-by-step instructions to help you complete some common Contribute tasks. The panel shows a list of browsing tasks while you are browsing, and a list of editing tasks while you are editing.

Click any link in the How Do I panel in the sidebar to get more information on that task. If the desired task is not in the list, see Contribute Help (Help > Adobe Contribute Help) to get detailed information.

You can expand, collapse, or resize the panels and the sidebar.
