Please note that the vim-publish plug-in requires my vim-misc plug-in which is separately distributed.
Unzip the most recent ZIP archives of the vim-publish and vim-misc plug-ins inside your Vim profile directory (usually this is ~/.vim
on UNIX and %USERPROFILE%\vimfiles
on Windows), restart Vim and execute the command :helptags ~/.vim/doc
(use :helptags ~\vimfiles\doc
instead on Windows).
If you prefer you can also use Pathogen, Vundle or a similar tool to install & update the vim-publish and vim-misc plug-ins using a local clone of the git repository.
