What and how do these two commands differ? (Splitting off the issue for the similar thread Publish Site Changes per suggestion.) - I have created a multi-page website with hundreds of photos (mirroring the design I used with iWeb - and as EverWeb is like iWeb, the same basic steps). - I select 'Publish Entire Site' and publish to a third party FTP server; after entering the the correct FTP Server Details on the Site Publishing Settings page. - Site publishes correctly; I can see it on the WWW and can see all the files by logging into my third party's server system. Now - the issue: - I change one page; among my many (and EverWeb knows I have changed just this one page because that page's icon in the lefthand column of all my pages turns red.) - I select (as I did in iWeb) 'Publish Site Changes' -- the entire site republishes; I can see this in the progress bar and the amount of time it takes. --- Nothing had changed expect the text on that one page. - Why does the entire site get 'republished? - Glenn |

Hi Glenn, Can you clarify which progress bar you see publishing the entire site? Is it the publishing of the actual web page files or the publishing to ftp progress bar? I assume it is the latter. If so, do you see how it says that it is skipping certain files? If not, it could be that your web hosting provider is not listing the correct modification dates of the published files. Most web hosts do but some could have a kid configuration. EverWeb compares the published dates of the ftp files with your local website to know which files to publish. ------------------------------- Paul EverWeb Developer |

Morning Paul: On the Site Publishing Page; within the FTP Server Details, just beneath 'Subdirectory:' So it would be publishing to FTP progress bar, nothing is skipped - all images, PNG, sizing JPGs, gallery HTML...etc are all published. If it is, as you may suggest, a publishing dates compare function, how (what words) could I use to convey this to my server host technical department? - Glenn Last edit 10 years ago |
