Freeway Reference: Publishing and Uploading
137
137
To publish your site on the web, choose Upload… from the File menu. Freeway will update the local site folder and then begin to
synchronize the remote web space with your site folder. Freeway will recognize what has changed in your site and automatically transfer
any files that need to be updated on the remote web space and clear out any redundant files or folders. Using a method other than
Freeway for uploading relies on you to identify all the parts of your site that have changed and may therefore be less reliable.
In order to make the connection to your web space using FTP, you need to know the server name and directory, and your username and
password. If in doubt about these, speak to your web server system administrator or consult your Internet Service Provider’s web site or
support helpline.
You can enter these details into the Document Setup dialog once you have created your document.
Upload method
A site can be uploaded using either File Transfer Protocol (FTP) or File Copy. Use the Upload popup menu in the Document Setup or
Upload dialog to specify which upload method you require.
A site located on a remote server, which can only be accessed over the Internet, will usually be uploaded using FTP—this will normally
be the method to use if you rent or receive free web space from a web hosting service or from your internet service provider (ISP).
A site located on a local volume (or on a server that is accessed using a local network), or on an iDisk volume other than the Sites
folder, must be uploaded using File Copy. This will normally be the method to use if you have your own web server or if you will be
publishing your site using your own computer and Personal Web Sharing (or similar software). Like FTP, File Copy determines any
changes to your site and automatically uploads or deletes the changed files only.
Setting the upload options
Before you can use the Upload facility to update your active web site, you need to tell Freeway where this is located and the upload
method you wish to use; you may also need to enter a username and password. You can do this using the Document Setup dialog or the
first time you choose the Upload command.
The upload settings—including the password, if you wish—are saved with your Freeway document. If you set the upload options and
then save your file, they will be retained for future sessions. You will need to enter the upload settings again for every new Freeway
document you create.
To set the upload options
1. Choose Document Setup… from the File menu. The Document Setup dialog appears.
2. Specify the upload settings you require using the options in the Upload section.
3. Click OK to accept your choices and return to the document.
To set the upload options the first time you choose the Upload… command
1. Choose Upload… from the File menu. The Upload dialog box appears.
2. Specify the upload settings you require.
3. Click OK to tell Freeway to proceed with updating your remote site. The options you specify here will be retained and used the next
time you choose the Upload command and will be saved with your documents.
The Upload options dialog appears each time you choose to upload your site.
Upload options for FTP
When you choose to upload your site via FTP using the Upload command, you need to specify the following options:
• Server
• Directory
• User name
• Password
• Web Address
From the Upload dialog you may also choose to use Passive FTP Mode, save an FTP log or enter your own scripts.
To find out the required information, you must contact the administrator or technical support department responsible for your web
space. If you are renting web space or receive it free from an ISP, visit their web site or contact their support department.
The information for uploading a site must be entered exactly—if there are any spelling errors, or the “
/” symbol is confused with “\”,
Freeway will not be able to upload successfully. Obtaining the information from your ISP’s web site or their support department via
email will allow you to copy/paste the path directly into the required field in Freeway. If you have to type the information yourself, take
care to type it exactly as specified.
Server: This is the name of the FTP server to which you are uploading your site. Here is an example:
ftp.softpress.com
The address for the ftp server may be in domain-name format (as above) or in IP format (such as 236.26.122.7). It can also
optionally include a port number (for example, ftp.softpress.com:21).
Note: Server may also be called FTP server, hostname or host.
