Viewing Changes

[gundog]

Is there a way to view changes that you are making to the site (what the actual visitor would see without all the stuff YOU can see) without logging in and out?


Thanks,
Al

The best thing to do is to use two browsers - one logged in, and one logged out. I use IE7 and Firefox.

If you need a copy of Firefox you can grab it from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/.

Thanks Denise - is there any particular reason you wouldn't use the same browser? Also...it seems I may have hit refresh while working wiithin the site and changes made previously (several 'submits' later) reverted back. Is that common?

If you use the same browser then you will need to log out to see your site as a viewer and log back in to work on it again. With two different browsers, you can run with one logged in and one logged out. For example, I'm usually logged in to my site on IE7 and not logged in on Firefox. I keep both browsers open at the same time. That way I just need to click on the other browser to see my changes.

As far as refresh goes - a refresh will re-access the code in your site. So if you haven't committed your changes by clicking on update, refresh will throw away any uncommited changes.
