The old Quick Publishing mode (also called Page Guides) is still available, but only when EPi7 is configured to use legacy editing mode. You will not be able to use Quick Publish with the new On Page Edit UI.
First you must enable legacy mode: http://sdkbeta.episerver.com/SDK-html-Container/?path=/SdkDocuments/CMS/7/Knowledge%20Base/Developer%20Guide/Configuration/Configuring%20UI.htm&vppRoot=/SdkDocuments//CMS/7/Knowledge%20Base/Developer%20Guide/
Then configure Quick Publishing: http://sdkbeta.episerver.com/SDK-html-Container/?path=/SdkDocuments/CMS/7/Knowledge%20Base/Developer%20Guide/Configuration/Configuring%20Quick%20Publishing.htm&vppRoot=/SdkDocuments//CMS/7/Knowledge%20Base/Developer%20Guide/
In CMS 6 there was a fast edit mode which was available through right click->fast edit. This mode displayed a stripped version of the edit mode; without the page tree and other functions. This was useful when users who didn't have access to edit mode could create specific pages. Is there something similar in CMS 7 or is it possible to mimic that in some way?
