OE 1.57-R9
I copied a complete existing project (the complete directoy), and gave it another name. The goal was to carry some information to the new/another project. I also changed the project *.ope name. These both projects are not related. After the copy, I deleted all pages, resources and layers, using the SiteExplorer. Except HomePage & BaseLayer. That worked fine. But on exporting to Folder, all pages reappear, even it they do not exist. It's confusing. In the screen shot, the 'impressum', and the (empty) 'HomePage/index.htm' should be the only ones to appear. I had to delete the files manually out of the newly created project directory. Recommend to delete them when the SiteExplorer deletes them, or to exclude them from compilation.  ------------- ___________________________________ Ask questions only if there is no answer yet. https://blumendigi.com |

Hi, Thank you for report. Strange situation indeed. Could you please try to use Project->Preferences->Advanced->Reconstruction of the pages and site linkmap (or whatever it is called in English - the first option in Advanced) and see if error persists? |

Very strange, indeed. I repeated the absolutely same procedure. And it worked just fine. Removed the source files, and completed te compilation perfectly. So far - so good? But it makes me even more supicious. Addt'l I performed your recommended procedure. That put the unused/deleted files into the 'garbage', even if the source files were not present anymore. In the visual editor it's obviously named 'Recycle Bin'. Sequence: Project ... Preferences ... Maintenance ... Rebuild pages and website link maps (Execute). That worked fine, too. At the end, a box popped up. Though whatever I did there, it repeated the same procedure again and again. Couldn't stop; no way. It was possible to stop that repeated sequence (and the whole project) with the TaskManager only. I'll keep an eye on it, but I don't create a new project every day. So, it might be reasonable, to remove this thread. ------------- ___________________________________ Ask questions only if there is no answer yet. https://blumendigi.com |

I'm getting very nervous, sorry. All the complaints I had in this thread, disappeared. Others appeared (SEO handling, that really needs some tutorial (not about the content as such)). The SEO handling is somehow tricky; and I couldn't find any desription about it. You may close and remove this thread. ------------- ___________________________________ Ask questions only if there is no answer yet. https://blumendigi.com |
