Hi Miha,

Author and public instances have identical software. They both have 
AdminCentral. The differences are in configuration and security.

Have a look at this unit in the Academy.
http://academy.magnolia-cms.com/display/MA/U.2+Author+and+public+instances

To change an author to a public and vice versa, see here.
http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/display/DOCS/Changing+author+to+public+instance

To know whether you are working on an author instance or public instance:

1) In configuration, check the /server/admin property. It is true for author 
and false for public.

2) In Java code use the isAdmin() method.

3) In a Freemarker template use the cmsfn.authorInstance templating function. 
http://documentation.magnolia-cms.com/display/DOCS/Freemarker+reference#Freemarkerreference-Examples

[code]This is ${cmsfn.authorInstance?string('indeed', 'not')} an author 
instance.[/code]
