    User Manual

    Hello,

    we have almost finished an Umbraco implementation and as part of the project we need to deliver a User Manual to our client. It would typically contain:

    - how to login
    - how to create new content
    - the different ways of publishing and unpublishing content (with delayed publishing, cascade publishing etc)
    - how to copy/move/delete content
    - how to add an image/document to the media library
    - etc...

    So clearly, technical topics are absolutely to be avoided: nothing about templates, XSL, etc which would scare our non-technical users.

    I searched around, but couldn't find any user manuals like that. Did anybody ever write one, even if partial, that we could continue upon? I'm sure it would be a great asset for the community as a whole.

    Thanks in advance!

    An alternative for those of you stumbling across this thread is the Umbraco Editors Manual, which is the most popular project on the our.umbraco site as I write this. It's available here:
