(expand all | collapse all)

How do I access this tool after I have installed it?

Site Import has only a single access point to use it. You can find this access point under File > Import Site.

Why does it only import a single page when I run the import?

This occurs occasionally depending on how your site is structured. Adding a reference to a default document in your site root can alleviate this issue:

http://yoursite .com/default.html

This default document may also be named index (followed by the appropriate file extension). Specifying this URL can help get the import for the rest of the site going.

Can I use Site Import to get server code or functionality from a site?

Site Import will only import what is available to a browser. If you can't get the code by viewing the source on a page, Site Import will not be able to get it for you.

Have an issue importing a folder that contains a period in the name?

Site Import will not be able to import any site folders that contain periods (.) in the name. For example, http://mysite.com/web2.0/ will not succesfully import. This is a known issue that is expected to be resolved in future versions.
