    Default Can users edit Library items?

    Hi everyone. I'm almost done with my first Contribute site and I had a
    question. My client has a small piece of text that is shown in the header of
    every page and this text is something that they want to change regularly. I
    added a Library item for this chunk in Dreamweaver thinking that this would be
    the proper way to allow them to edit it in one place in Contribute.

    I found where I can grant permissions for editing the various types of shared
    assets, but I don't see that they can edit the Library item. Is there a way to
    do this or do I need to set this up differently (server-side include, etc.)?

    Thanks in advance,
    Jason

    I think you should use a SSI in your Template and provide your user with a link to that include-file, so they can edit it in Contribute.

    I'm using PHP so I ended up using a include() call for the file I needed. I will give them a link to the included file so that they can edit it.
