Cover Page and Export Changes to HTML

pogmoor — Mon, 03 Jan 2005 07:41:59 +0000

When I use ‘Export Changes to HTML’ I notice it always seems to export the cover page, even though this page might stay the same. I paste extra HTML into the page so that the cover page gets a name and in order to put a web counter onto the page and it’s a nuisance to have to repaste this every time I update the site. Is it necessary for the cover page to always be updated, or can this be changed in a future release?

I will have to look into it.

If you change the behaviour, please make it user selectable. I rely on cover pages to indicate revision information and such.

Hey Markus,

It sounds like the Cover page is getting exported during incremental export even if it hasn't been changed, which is sort of a bug. If you're modifying the cover page with revision information, that should count as a change and cause the cover to get exported, so I think there won't be a problem?

Hi Jayson,

yes, you are right. I did not read the original posting properly.

Cheers,

Hi Jayson,

I love the changes I was able to make to the cover page. I added a picture and really personalized it.

Yet, when exporting to the web, only the font changes showed up. The picture isn’t there – just a solid white background.
