Managing Files
Uploading Files
In collage, you can upload files from your computer to the Collage server. To upload a file, simply navigate to the folder you wish to upload the file to, and click the "Upload" button on the toolbar.
This will bring up a dialog box. Select the file you wish to upload by clicking the "Browse" button and click the "OK" button. Note: You can only upload files with the extension specified. To overwrite a file, check the box next to it prior to uploading the file.
Deleting Files
To delete a file, simply check the corresponding box to the file and click the "Delete" button on the toolbar.
Moving Files
To move a file, navigate to "Deploy Folders" mode by clicking on the "Content" tab.
From there, navigate through the site structure and check the corresponding box to the file you wish to move. Proceed to click the "More" button on the far right of the toolbar. From the drop down menu, select "Move..."
This will bring up a diolog box where you must navigate through the site structure and select the folder you wish to move the selected file to.
Deploying the Site
Deploying the site is the process of uploading your changed/new content to the web server for public view. To deploy the site, click on the "Deploy" tab and select "Activities."
Once in the deploy activities page, click on the" Deploy" button.
A dialog box will pop up with some deploy options. The only option you need to change is the "Deploy Termination Error Level." Use the pull down and choose "Only Fatal Errors," and click "OK."
You should now see the progress of the deploy in the "Currently Running Activities" box. To update the progress during deploy, click "Refresh" on the top of the page. Once the deploy has completed, it will move to the "Activity Archive." You can now view your newly updated site.
