4.17 FTP Export of folders and documents

The export action 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 the action menu Export   action from the document's action menu.
In the case of a folder, all documents and sub-folders within the folder are transfered. Empty folders are not transfered. The export form requires the following parameters:

  • FTP host
  • FTP path on the FTP host
  • FTP user name
  • FTP password

The FTP parameter (except the password) 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 transfered which have been changed since the most recent export operation, unless it is explicitly specified that all documents shall be exported.
