WebMake Documentation (version 2.2) | [ Back | Forward | Index | All In One ]

# Using webmake.cgi WebMake now provides some simple "edit in browser" functionality, using `webmake.cgi`. Note: this is beta functionality, and may have security implications. Use with caution! Some features of note: The default view is an overview of your site, allowing you to quickly find what you want to change. webmake.cgi includes a rudimentary file manager, allowing you to travel through the directories that make up your site, and create, delete, edit and upload files therein. Text and XML can be edited quickly, in a textbox, with built-in input areas for entering common metadata items (such as titles). You can also use it to edit the items of content embedded in the WebMake file itself, or simply edit the WebMake XML file in a text box. With a single click of a link, the WebMake site can be built there and then. Also, webmake.cgi supports CVS, which provides these benefits: multiple copies of the same site can be replicated, and changes made on any of the sites will be automatically updated on all the others. changes made to the site will be kept under version control, so older versions of the site can be "rolled back" if necessary. a history of changes to the site is kept, allowing you to see exactly who did what to which.
