Welcome to the home of Fast Edit !

  ... An "edit in place" tool with extended CMS capabilities

Fast Edit is an "edit in place" tool, meaning you can use it to edit your web page content right on the same page.

Fast Edit is also a Content Management System (CMS) where you can manage files, create and delete pages, make and restore backups, and decide what to display in the automatic menu. And all via a one-click interface!

Best suited to small or medium sized websites, Fast Edit uses flat (text) files to store information so if you don't have access to a MySQL (or similar) database, no problem; Fast Edit could be just the software for you!

For a more detailed breakdown of Fast Edit's features, please visit the "Features" page.

Installation

Fast Edit can be plugged into any existing website. All that's needed is a little bit of restructing, to pull out the editable content into seperate text files (one editable region per page).

The Fast Edit download package comes with an example website setup for reference, but in case you want to see the installation method upfront, please see the "Installation" page for a rundown.
