Editing content

You can edit content items inline, using the inline editor, or on your computer.
The inline editor is available for HTML and plain text documents, but only when the Edit Inline option is enabled for the content item.
  1. Navigate to the space containing the content item you want to edit.
  2. Click Edit icon (Edit) for the content item to edit.
    Note: To prevent other users overwriting your changes, you can check out the content item.
  3. Depending on the content type and its settings, you will do one of the following:
    • If the content selected is an HTML or Plain Text file for which inline editing has been permitted, the inline editor opens displaying the selected document. Edit the content as desired and click Save.
    • If the content selected is not inline editable, follow the directions on the displayed page to save the file to your computer. You can then open the file with the relevant desktop application. Once the edits are complete, you must update the version in Alfresco to allow others to see the changes you have made.
