Changing 'sitename' for all users

[karenhowie]

Hi folks,

Sorry to bother you. I am an administrator of a number of sites which I
inherited. We have a lot of Contribute users who have access to different
degrees to the various different sites (on different servers). However, the
sitenames (which I guess are generated by contribute via the index page title?)
did not make much sense and I've now tidied them up so that the title reflects
more about what the site actually is. (Tried with first site) I was hoping that
this would update how the site is referred to for contribute users, but the
sitename remains the same. I've edited the contribute.xml file for the site on
the server, cleared all of my keys and generated myself a new key but it is
still the same. It is wrong in the actual key file even after it has been
regenerated/resent and the only way I can see round it is to edit individual
key files (.stc) but I don't want to have to edit this file for everyone I send
a key to..... any thoughts? Have I missed something?

many thanks!

While I don't use Contribute 2, this article I wrote on my blog about this may
help you:

Basically it boils down to the fact that once the connection string has been
created it is never updated.

I hope this helps.
