    • Log in to Admin Area

  • The directory where KBPublisher is installed. By default, this is kb. If you're not sure what your KBPublisher installation directory is, take a look at the address line on your KBPublisher home page.  Your installation directory is the directory after your domain name. For example, the address line on our KBPublisher home page is www.kbpublisher.com/kb.  Thus our installation directory is kb.

  • MD5 format

  • Modified Files package
  • A modified files package is an upgrade package that allows you to simply replace files that have changed, rather than doing a full upgrade. In the package we provide you with a list of modified files to replace and you copy the new files over the old one. It's a much quicker way of doing an upgrade when the changes are not structural.

  • This is the 'reader' view of the knowledgebase that people see. The user does not have to log in to see the public view, although they may have to log in to read articles if you have set your knowledgebase up that way.
    The alternative view is the Admin Area. Users must log on to see this, and they must hve admin, moderator, editor, author or contributor access.

  • Role
  • Users can be assigned "roles", which then control which articles they see in the knowledgebase.
