Hi sorry if this sounds silly but i think i might have gone a bit wrong with the file i use for my website, it would seem i have done the whole site in one tab, it now takes ages for anything to updat even if i set it to updated pages, the index page along took 5 mins to update. Is there and easy way to fix this or will i have to rebuild the whole thing - I dont mind i have to i just thought i would ask here for any suggestions
Thanks in advance Jack
First thing to check Jack is whether you're using a Supersite. Go to Web Properties / Website / Web Export Options / and ensure Supersite is not selected.
I have just checked that, supersite is not selected
I have checked again supersite is not selected - what else can i do to sort this issue out

Jack, I don't understand what you mean by in one tab.
How many pages and images does your current site have?
Also, is "set to updated pages" what I understand as Xara's Fast Publish?
Have you compressed your images for web publishing?

The Documents Tabs may not be relevant to your time issues.Quote:

Machine first.
Are you running the 64-bit Xara Desktop application or an earlier 32-bit?
If 32-bit then your computer memory is constrained.
If 64-bit and you have only 8GB RAM then you need to close as many other applications as possible. The second Document Tab (Coundowns) could be saved and closed but this will only help if the file is also very large.
You can check through Control Panel > System and Security > Task Manager: Memory column against your Desktop application.
I have to assume your "only updated pages" is a mis-remembering of Web Properties > Publish Settings > Fast Publish (Only changed files).
Have you used Utilities > Optimise all images > Settings and, changed the resolution and pressed the Optimise button? This tunes you images to be adequate for web viewing.
Ensure you have your master images already in a safe area.
You can test the effectiveness of the above by Exporting to a local folder and checking the overall size of the ../index_htm_files/ folder before and after.

If i do this resize thing now will affect the original photos
I have also imported the file you suggested and it`s quite a big one 385mb

When you "get" an image from a folder or on-line, you are only copying it into the Xara design. Any compression occurs for the images used and doesn't affect the originals.
Some people have deleted originals thinking they were safely store in the Xara design.
If worried copy, an original to a new place and create a test Xara design file where you drag it onto the MouseOff Layer, then compress it and check the copy hasn't been affected.
In other words, experiment until you can explain to yourself what you have done.
I have to caveat what I say as I don't know how or what you currently do.

\ok i will do that and see how it goes
Thanks for your help it`s appreciated :)
Sorry it`s been a week, busy in work and such anyway i have done the optomize thing and it did 30 of the photos now it says 0 images optomised maybe thats all that needed doing = I have also had a nother proper look at the file that i downloaed index_html_files and they are all pretty small in size i think its the sheer number of the over 2000 images
