KB User's Guide - SitePref Tab - Edit This Page button

NoteInformation symbol

You must have full administrative permissions in your space to perform these steps. This means access to the OwnerDocs, GroupDocs, SitePref, and Users tabs.

After publishing a document to your Internal KB site, an Edit this page button appears on the upper right of the document of the live site. This button can act as a shortcut to the KB Admin Tools. This document will show admins how to adjust this feature.

What is the Edit this Page Button?

The Edit this page button appears at the top right of a document on the Live Internal site to those who have WriteAccess to that specific document. Clicking on this button leads you to the document editor of that exact document in the KB Admin Tools (e.g. you will leave the Live Internal Site entirely and end up in the document editor of that document in the KB Admin Tools).

This feature is ideal for KB groups not requiring Review Comments when editing. For KB groups that do require Review Comments to be made before editing, you will be automatically redirected to the view doc screen where you can enter comments rather than having to click the Back button. See more about Review Comments here.

Enable/ Disable the Edit this page Button

Admins who would like to enable or modify the Edit this page button as seen on the KB internal live site options will navigate to the SitePref tab and click on the Groups Spaces link on the top of the left navigation bar. This will lead you to the Groups Spaces screen.
