A User's Guide to Plone

This book helps new and experienced Plone users to become more productive. Unlike other Plone books, this volume focuses on how to use "out of the box" features pre-installed with any default Plone instance. It is written especially for those who use Plone on a daily basis to write and approve content.

A User's Guide to Plone takes an in-depth look at the basic steps for creating and publishing content; it also provides reference material about content types, workflows, user security and strategies for organizing a site. The latest edition, for Plone 4, is 246 pages, has undergone a major rewrite by Robert Nagle, and includes new material on topics such as: using the TinyMCE editor, using Plone for wikis and making content easy to find.
