The contributor’s Site.com Studio view lets users browse and update website content. To enable contributors to edit the site’s content, however, you must first create template-based pages with editable areas and enable several properties.

To enable your contributors to:

  • Edit the text on a page, create template-based pages with editable content blocks
  • Add content blocks to the page, create template-based pages with editable panels
  • Create site pages based on a page template, select Available to Contributors in the Properties pane when the page template is open
  • Add widgets to the page, select Available to Contributors in the Widgets view on the Overview tab or in the Properties pane when the widget is open
  • Update the appearance of pages and widgets, set up branding properties

To ensure that the contributor’s Site.com Studio view is set up correctly, click View Studio as a Contributor in the site’s pull-down menu (on the top toolbar). To exit, click Return to My Studio View.

The contributor’s view is not available by default for Site.com Community sites. However, you can use a Site.com Contributor license to grant contributor access to a specific user. See About Feature Licenses in the Site.com help for details. Alternatively, a user can preview the Site.com Community site as a contributor by appending ?iscontrib to the site’s URL. For example: MyDomainName.builder.salesforce-experience.com/?iscontrib
