The Contribute CS4 Web Publishing Software for Windows from Adobe is a software package aimed at webmasters and bloggers. It allows content authors to post content to multiple websites and blogs simultaneously from within the Contribute application, Microsoft Office, or a web browser. It features seamless integration with Dreamweaver, ensuring that website integrity is not compromised. This is a great tool to allow multiple authors to update a single web site.
Unified Publishing System
Contribute is a unified publishing system that allows you to update multiple websites and blogs from within a single application interface. It features a WYSIWYG interface, eliminating the need to learn confusing HTML and CSS code.
Dreamweaver Integration
The software works seamlessly alongside Adobe Dreamweaver. This allows web designers to delegate content updates to users without fear of their breaking things on the site. Users can even update content from within Microsoft Office applications.
Content Administration Tools
A website administration console allows you to customize user permissions to insure that access to critical areas of a web site is limited. Drafts can be saved in progress and you can even rollback to a previous version of a page if necessary.
Rich Media and Protocol Support
The software supports rich media content including images, movies and Adobe Flash Video. This is done via a drag and drop interface during editing to streamline the publishing workflow. It supports standard transfer protocol such as FTP, SFTP, WebDAV, MetaWeblog, and Atom.
