    Default Pages checked out by Contribute

    I have over 50 Contribute users who are experiencing frequent messages from
    Contribute stating, "Macromedia Contribute is currently editing this page." So,
    they request that I check the page back in. On my end in Dreamweaver, the page
    is checked out with a "red checkmark." To resolve the problem, I override
    "Macromedia Contribute's" checkout and republish the page.

    Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can prevent it from happening
    in the future? Thank you.

    Hi,

    You're the site administrator I assume? You might want to log in to
    administer the site and check to see whether there is a user who has called
    themselves 'Macromedia Contribute' and, if there is, change their password.
    This will allow you to find out who is being a smart arse and then correct
    the situation.

    If there is no user called 'Macromedia Contribute' then you have an
    error/issue which I have no idea how to fix -sorry.


    Regards,

    Bruce
