Maintaining Front Page from 2 locations

D

Darryl Abrahms

I've been working with Front Page by having my "master" on my local C drive
and then publishing changes to my remote web server. I now have someone who
will be helping me maintain my site from a different computer. If she makes
changes to my pages on the web, and then I publish other changes we will
overwrite each other's work. How do you suggest we maintain the web from two
different locations? Thanks.

You need to communicate...

Option 1:

If you make changes and publish, then she need to open the live site and
publish down to her computer, make changes and then republish.

Then if you need to make changes, you would open the live site and publish
down to your computer, make changes and then republish.

Option 2:

You both work on the live site, and then publish down to your local
machines, as a backup.

I use Option 1, 99% of the time with my clients that also work on their
sites.
