Web Site organization with sub-folders question
Hi, I am proud of owner of the X9 as of today.
I want to redo my site using Web designer, which has a special folder setup. I have few products and each product is in its own folder, so it is like this:
index.html
products.html
\product1\index.html
\product2\index.html
etc..
Is such arrangement possible with web designer? I searched the help but come up to nothing. I see that I can change the file name of page but it doesn't allow subfolder.
Thanks for answer.

You create three (and more) Xara design files as follows:
- Products.xar containing index.html & products.html pages.
- Product1.xar containting index.html.
- Product2.xar containting index.html.
You then publish, using Xara's FTP, as follows:- Products.xar to your root folder
- Product1.xar to ..root/product1/.
- Product2.xar to ..root/product2/.
Look at Web Properties... > Publish > Other web host (via FTP) > Settings > Sub-folder (optional) for your required folders.
You could do the same with a third party FTP program if you prefer from an Export Website... local folder.
The trick then is knowing the relative path to your sub-site for any navigation bars and links.

Great.
Also Xara defaults to *.htm unless you explicitly add .html to the page filename (Web Properties... > Page > Page filename).
