Rearranging and Removing Topics and Categories

 
advanced administration guide wincustomizing website topics in presence builderphpserverssh

You can rearrange and remove topics and categories by editing a
configuration file and then applying it to a Presence Builder
installation.

To modify the list of topics and categories available in Presence
Builder, do the following:

  1. Log in to the server over SSH or Remote Desktop.

  2. Create a configuration file by issuing the following command:

    "%plesk_dir%adminbinphp.exe" -c "%plesk_dir%adminphp.ini" -dauto_prepend_file="" "%plesk_dir%sbutilssnapshot2wst.php" --export --file=<configuration_file>.cfg
    
  3. Edit the resulting configuration file:

    • To remove unwanted topics or categories, comment out the
      corresponding entries in the file: place a semicolon (;) at the
      beginning of each line.

      Categories are represented by lines containing text enclosed in
      square brackets. For example: [Retail].

      Topics are represented in the list by lines like
      <topic_code>.info = "Topic title".

    • To change the order of topics or categories, move the
      corresponding lines within the file.

  4. Save the file.

  5. Apply the modified configuration file to the Presence Builder
    installation by issuing the following command:

    "%plesk_dir%adminbinphp.exe" -c "%plesk_dir%adminphp.ini" -dauto_prepend_file="" "%plesk_dir%sbutilssnapshot2wst.php" --import --file=<configuration_file>.cfg
    

To restore the default set of topics and categories in Presence
Builder:

Issue the following command:

"%plesk_dir%adminbinphp.exe" -c "%plesk_dir%adminphp.ini" -dauto_prepend_file="" "%plesk_dir%sbutilssnapshot2wst.php" --reset
