Work Areas
A work area is a copy of the entire site. Work areas are used for
editing new versions of the site without affecting the live web site.
When you install a SiteBuilder you get a work area named Main, this is
the work area you should use for your live web site. It is possible to
rename it with the Work areas/Configure button under the
Configuration tab.
Renaming work area
You create a new work area with the Work areas/Create
button under the Configuration tab. When you create the
work area you get to choose which work area it should be a copy of.
This should usually be the work area used for the live site.
Creating work area
Changes made in one work area are transfered to another work area
with the Join button under the Files tab. Either
an entire directory structure or a single file is joined.
If your users always use the Content Editor for viewing their pages
you don't have to do anything to make a new work area available. When
a user uses the View button a cookie is set so that she
gets the file from the correct work area. If you want to make it
possible to view the work area without using the Content Editor you
have to mount it somewhere. Either under another path in the virtual
file system, or by creating a new SiteBuilder view area virtual
server.
