Firefox Add-on | CMS Helpguides

This addon adds a rhino-shaped button on the bottom right of the Firefox browser bar, which lets you click on it while you are visiting the live WWF website (frontend), taking you to the same page or news piece in the CMS (backend). This will save you time and efforts as you would not have to go into the CMS and browse through the site structure to find the right page to edit.

This addon works for all sites on the Network CMS panda.org including subsites, and netsites hosted by WWF International.
Find a list of all the supported Pads and URLs here.
