7.3 FTP Export of folders and documents
The action
Export
allows the transfer of a complete file tree via
FTP to an FTP server, e.g., the file tree of the pages of a Web site.
By selecting the
File
Export
action in the
top menu bar you will receive a form where you specify the parameters
which are required for the transfer of the folder.
You may also export a single document by selecting
Export
from the document's action menu.
In the case of a folder, all documents and sub-folders within the folder are transferred.
Empty folders are not transferred. The export form requires the following parameters:
- FTP host
- FTP path on the FTP host
- FTP user name
- FTP password
- the file-name character set on this specific FTP host
The FTP parameter (except the password for security reasons) are saved and remain available
for future export operations; of course, they can be overwritten later.
When repeating an export operation to the same FTP server, only
those documents are transferred which have been changed since the
most recent export operation, unless it is explicitly specified
that all documents shall be exported.
