    Default Contribute doesn't remember last folder?

    Our hospital recently adopted Contribute as a publishing tool for its
    collection of procedural manuals. If a page is edited, and the choose button is
    used to open a subsequent page, Contribute will only remember the last location
    if the folder is at the top level of the directory structure of the website!?

    When pages opened from child folders, the next time the Choose button is used,
    Contribute defaults to the website level, annoying most of our users who then
    annoy me. Any remedies??

    Assuming that these manuals are either PDFs or DOCs. Contribute has a
    default setting for where PDFs and DOCs go. This setting may be effecting
    your file placement.

    Administer your web site, then choose to edit the 'role' you are having
    problems with, then choose the 'File Placement' category. Once in that you
    can change the rules for file placement for these document types.

    I'm not 100% sure that this will fix you issue, but it may be a good place
    to start...

    HTH,
