Firedocs

Local Documents

Open local documents with the Firedocs toolbar button ("Editor" ) in the browser toolbar.

1. (Firefox) Browser toolbar > Editor > File > Open. This will launch Firedocs and open the document for editing.
2. Edit the document
3. Save with the "Save" button.
4. Close and exit the editor with the "Close".

Atompub

1. Navigate to a Atompub enabled page
2. (Firefox) Browser toolbar > Editor > Edit Document. This will launch Firedocs, lock the document and open it.
3. Edit the document
4. Save with the "Save" button.
5. Close and exit the editor with the "Close" button. This will automatically release the lock for the document.

WebDAV

You have to enable the WebDAV "Auto Discovery" setting in the Preferences first. This is disabled by default because if turned on Firedocs will scan every page you visit for WebDAV properties (with an additional PROPFIND request). This can cause problems with some web applications.

• (Firefox) Settings > Editor > WebDAV > enable "Auto Discovery"

Now you're ready to edit documents:

1. Navigate to a WebDAV page
2. (Firefox) Browser toolbar > Editor > Edit Document. This will launch Firedocs, lock the document and open it.
3. Edit the document.
4. Save with the "Save" button.
5. Close and exit the editor with the "Close" button. This will automatically release the lock for the document.

FTP

For FTP transfers we recommend you install both FireFTP and the FireFTP Laucher add-ons. The launcher allows to open and edit files directly from FireFTP.

1. (FireFTP) Connect to a remote site
2. (FireFTP) Download document(s)
3. (FireFTP) Downloaded document(s) > Context Menu > Edit with Firedocs
4. (Firedocs) Edit the document.
5. (Firedocs) Save with the "Save" button.
6. (Firedocs) Close and exit the editor with the "Close". Now you're back in FireFTP.
7. (FireFTP) Upload updated content to remote site.
