Where can I get step-by-step guides on web content update under CM1?

CM1 step-by-step guides can be found at CM1 Support page.

I approved the page but it did not update the published site. What's wrong?

After a page is approved, it will be put in the publishing queue.  The next mass publish will publish all pages in the Pending status.

In order to see the updates/changes on the published site immediately, CM1 editors should use the Publish feature. 

When the page is opened under CM1 in Edit mode, mouse-over to the Publishing drop-down menu and choose Publish.

I got an error when double-clicking on CSUDH under the CM1 Finder. What should I do?

Double-clicking on CSUDH folder (2nd column from left in CM1 Finder) is a different feature only for system administrators.  Use single-click instead.
