Copying/moving files

Copying and moving files and directories is easily done in SiteBuilder. A wizard guides you through the process. The wizard is similar for both operations and is easy to use.

Copy
The first step is to focus on the file or directory that are to be copied and pressing the Copy button to launch the wizard that will give guidance through the process.

The first page of the wizard is used to find the directory where the copy should be saved, and possibly change the name of the copy. In our example we try to copy the file /overview/serach.html to /user/intraseek/search_result.html.

At the start we will be viewing the /overview/ directory. The file system within the wizard is navigated in the same way as the regular SiteBuilder file system, with on exception. It is not possible to click on the directory names, only the icons.

We must choose the Up to parent directory link to navigate upwards towards our goal.


/overview/ directory

After having followed the Up to parent directory link we will be looking at the / directory, or the root of the file system. From here we must descend the user/ the directory.


/ directory

Our journey takes us to the /user/ directory. From here we must descend the intraseek/ directory.


/user/ directory

At the last leg of our journey we are at our destination directory, /user/intraseek/. All we have to do before we go to the next step in the wizard is to change the file name to search_result.html.


/user/intraseek/ directory

The second page of the wizard asks for confirmation of the operation. By pressing Ok we will finish the copying. It will however be necessery to commit the changed file before other users can see the result of the operation.


Confirmation of the copy operation

In case of copying a directory the second page of the wizard will also ask for a log message. As with all directory operations it will be commited to the repository immediately, thus the need for a log message. All files and subdirectories within the directory will be copied as well.

Move or rename
Moving or renaming a file or directory follows the same procedure as copy. Focus on the file or directory that should be moved and the press the Move button. Follow the instructions in the wizard and when the wizard is finished commit the changes.


Move wizard

As with the copy wizard it is necessary to confirm the move.
