Booki logo

I would like to publish the Thunderbird manual (http://booki.flossmanuals.net/thunderbird/edit/) to the Floss Manuals site (http://en.flossmanuals.net/thunderbird/). I apparently have maintainer permissions, but cannot figure out how to do this. From reading threads on the flossmanuals mailing list, I apparently should use the getbooki plugin? Where do I get this?

Hi jenzed,

To access the maintainer tools and publish from http://booki.flossmanuals.net/ to http://en.flossmanuals.net/, you need to go to:

http://www.flossmanuals.net/admin.php

Note: It is recommended that Firefox is used for accessing the maintainer/admin pages.

When you were made a maintainer you would have been sent a username and password, use these to login to the maintainer site.

Note: these will be different from your Booki username and password.

To publish your manual, click on get booki gears, select your manual from the drop-down list and choose the formats that you want to get published (html, epub and screen formatted pdf). If you leave your email address in the text box, you will be notified when the different formats have been published. Finally click on Get Book!

When the process has finished, the formats you chose will be available for access form en.flossmanuals.net/. If the book was already published to en.flossmanuals.net, the documents available from here will be updated to the version on booki.flossmanuls.net at the time of publishing.

Cheers, John

soon you will be able to publish to en.flossmanuals.net from the settings tab in your book (only available to maintainers)
