Saving and Loading Copies of a Website

 
creating sites with presence builderreseller guidewebsite managementbackupserver

While working on the content and design of a website, you can save
several copies of each site to the server and restore sites from the
saved copies (also referred to as snapshots). Saving site copies can
be useful in the following cases:

  • You want to prepare several versions of the same website, so that you
    can later load them for review, choose the best designed or the most
    appropriate version, and publish it to the Internet.
  • You want to make significant changes or experiment on the site design
    or content, but be sure that you can safely undo the changes should
    anything go wrong.

Note: Pictures from the Image Gallery modules are not saved in
snapshots. Images are stored on your customer account.

To save the current design and content of a site:

  1. In the Presence Builder editor’s main menu, click the icon
    image 69743 next to the Save option.

    Note: If you click Save, a quick-save site copy will be saved under
    the name auto-saved snapshot. You will be able to restore a
    site from this copy later, by clicking Revert in the main
    menu.

  2. In the list that opens, select a free saving slot, type a name for
    the backup copy, and click Save.

To restore a site from a saved copy:

  1. In the Presence Builder editor’s main menu, click the icon
    image 69743 next to the Revert option.

    Note: If you click Revert, a site will be restored from the
    quick-save copy that was made the last time you clicked Save.

  2. In the list that opens, select a site copy and click Load.

  3. Click Yes to confirm you want to restore.

To download a site copy:

  1. In the Presence Builder editor’s main menu, click the icon
    image 69743 next to the Save option.
  2. Locate the copy that you want to download and click
    the image 69186.gif (Download) icon.
  3. Select the directory on your computer where you want to save the file
    and click OK.

To upload a site copy:

  1. In the Presence Builder editor’s main menu, click the icon
    image 69743 next to the Revert option.
  2. Click the image 69187.gif (Upload) icon next to the slot to which
    you want to upload the copy.
  3. Browse to the site snapshot file in the SSB format and select it.
  4. If you want to restore a site from the uploaded snapshot, select it
    and click Load.

To remove a site copy:

  1. In the Presence Builder editor’s main menu, click the icon
    image 69743 next to the Save option.
  2. Locate the site copy that you want to remove and click the
    corresponding image 69190.gif (Remove) icon.
