Save and Publish

[Karen Mac]

Is it possible to make the publish button save at the same time you publish? Lots of folks forget to save first, and then their changes dont show up. Combining this would save alot of headaches.

Fantastic idea, Karen! Should be doable, because they save images in the images folder on our computer when they publish.

Great IDEA Karen :)

We sometimes wonder why the changes did not occur, and then realize that we have not saved them in the first place...

That would be great as long as you could save/save as without publishing.

Re: Save and Publish

Exactly, since most of us have habits to save every minute, waiting for it to publish every time would be a pain. Great Idea!

Re: Save and Publish

Well youd still have the save/saveas

Just fix the publish button to auto save with a tick box by default.

Re: Save and Publish

ha .. here comes odd ball here .. but for me .. alot of times I don't want my page saved until I've seen it .. meaning I will publish a page and then decide whether or not I want to save it .. in case I change my mind, so I wouldn't want this feature ... but that's just me .. LOL ..

Re: Save and Publish

Well you could UNTICK the box...best of both worlds..

Or have a preferences setting.. so it would come by default to save.. and advanced users can edit their preferences.

That'd be awesome Karen .. and yes good idea to have the default set at save, and then someone like me could adjust the preferences .. good idea .. I like choices ...

Hi,

To me it is a matter of habit.

After making the changes in my webpage, I would hit the "Save" button on the top toolbar before I do anything else with the page.

It has become habitual.

But of course Blue Voda lets one undo an action after saving the document unlike other microsoft processors that I've used.

Re: Save and Publish

One question Madam Moderator, have you ever lost hours of work because you haven't hit the saved button before publishing?
Or does that only happen to me? (power blackouts, etc etc.)
Just recently I lost 2 Soho pages that I had spent time on finding the products I wanted moving them to the specific spots on the page where they looked best. Then doing a text element had the text editor play up, tried to get out of that & lost the entire page!

Re: Save and Publish

Soho is a creature of a different color. And that TinyMCE editor drives me insane.. youre right it doesnt retain info, its java based and uses resources differently.. and psssst im not a moderator over here..LOL
