    Default How do you turn of "publish as new"?

    I'd like to know how to turn off the "publish as new" setting in contribute CS3
    and contribute 3, does anyone know how to do this from the admin console?

    I have already turned off all New Pages options in the administrator Settings
    for each group as we manage this from Dreamweaver CS3 but they can still save a
    copy of an existing page by following the steps below:

    [num]Open a page for editing in contribute[/num]
    [num]Go to File > Actions > Publish as New Page[/num]

    How do you stop this?

    Thanks
    Nathan

    Please check all the role-settings for all the roles again concerning the New
    Pages using Contribute Administer Websites, because the settings you are
    referring to should have the effect of graying out the 'publish as new page'
    option.

    Default Re: How do you turn of "publish as new"?

    I've checked the New pages section and for this particular site all options are
    disabled for all user groups.

    When I'm editing an existing page in this site I can still save a copy by
    using File > Actions > Publish as New Page.

    Are there any other settings I should check?

    You are quit right... This is not so nice. Then what's the point of these
    settings. There must be a way to solve this, otherwise the settings are plain
    stupid and of no value. I'll serach teh web and try testing some more. I'll get
    back to this post...

    When you uncheck the 'Allow users to publish files' in the admin-settings
    (Users and Roles, General) the option 'Publish as New Page' is grayed out even
    in Edit mode.

    This is probably not what you are looking for, since the users have to send
    existing pages for review now...

    I think this is a bug... The save Publish as New Page should be greyed out on
    applying the proper settings. There is no other logical setting, as far as I'm
    concerned that has anything to do whit this duplicating pages. I think you
    should report it as a bug. I will do that too.

    Thanks for your help. As you suggested we still want editors to be able to
    publish their changes without sending for review, so that's not quite what I
    had in mind.

    I've submitted a bug report to Adobe.

    Thanks

    I received a response from Adobe feedback saying they couldn't reproduce the
    error. Maybe it's something specific to the way it's set up or maybe they just
    didn't understand the steps to reproduce the error, I'm not sure.

    Sounds like time to produce a word file with screen shots gents.
