[opencms-dev] Direct editing - how to switch to offline?

[Thierry Collogne]

The Alkacon documentation for direct editing states:

Quote:

The "direct edit" feature of OpenCms 6 allows editing of pages directly 
"from the page". This means it is not required to be in the OpenCms 
workplace to edit a page. You simply open the page in the browser, and edit 
from there.

Please note: To use the direct edit feature, the user must be in an 
"Offline" project. Direct editing is not possible from the online project. 
This also means the user must log in first.


This seems to be the entirety of the documentation - the rest is just 
examples!

My question is this: if a user logs in using a login form, they are still in 
the Online project as far as I can see. How can they switch to the Offline 
project without using the workplace?

Thanks
