Sending connections for CPS managed sites
If you're using Contribute Publishing Server (CPS) to manage your website, you send users a connection key that
connects them to the server.
You can also have users type connect:server domain name (where server domain name is the name of the server
where CPS is installed) in the Contribute browser address bar to connect to the website.
Note: Before users can use a connection key or type connect: to connect to a CPS managed website, you must add users
to the website. If you haven't already done so, see "Adding users to your website (CPS only)" on page 44.
If you're not using CPS to manage your website, see "Sending connection keys for websites" on page 47 for infor-
mation about sending connection keys.
To send a CPS connection key:
Select Edit > Administer Websites (Windows) or Contribute > Administer Websites (Macintosh), and select the
1
website you want to administer from the submenu.
If the website has no administrator, click Yes when a dialog box asks whether you want to become the website
administrator. Then enter and confirm an administrator password for the website, and click OK.
The Administer Website dialog box appears.
Click Send Connection Key.

The Send Connection Key dialog box appears.
