Important: This website is now read only (except to admins) to comply with the UK Online Safety Act. Composr CMS is in the process of migrating to a new Constitutional governance model and Bazaar development model, with functionality of the old website (constructed by ocProducts Ltd, the prior copyright holder, a UK company) spread between GitLab and the new website (which has no connections to the UK).

Need better information?
The Composr documentation is user-driven:
- If you have found documentation problems that you'd like someone else to solve log an issue to the tracker.
- If you'd like to contribute a chunk of documentation to go into a tutorial, also log an issue to the tracker. As a user, it is possible you may find some useful extra tidbits of information there.
- If you want to contribute a new tutorial hosted off-site you can submit a link via the button below.
