Recite CMS allows you to manage web site content via your native operating system using WebDAV technology.

Specifically, you can manage files and templates. This is especially useful when building a site in Recite CMS since most web developers prefer to use their own text editor or Integrated Development Environment (IDE) rather than the provided file and text editors.

Getting Started

Before you can use Recite WebDAV, you must consult your administrator so they can set up your site for WebDAV access. The Recite CMS administration guide contains instructions for doing so.

Once your administrator has set you up for WebDAV access they will give you a special domain to use. For example, if your Control Panel is located at http://cp.recite.example.com, the WebDAV site might be located at http://dav.recite.example.com.

You will need your Control Panel username and password to access the WebDAV server.

Next you need to set up your own computer to access the WebDAV server. You can find specific instructions for doing so by visiting the WebDAV domain in your browser.
