External link notifaction

[sgtbash]

Just a thaught,

Ive just backed up one of my sites and seen the " links to files that Actinic cannot find on your computer" message.

Is there anyway that a button can be added to find where these are?

If it knows that they are not site files, there must be a way of showing them.

hmm

Thanks

Dan,

If you import that snapshot onto another computer using actinic you will find that the snapshot creates a folder called 'NOT_CATALOG'. You will find the paths to where all these external files are in this location as it carries over the folder path along with the image / file for you to replace on the source destination, in this case the system onto which the site is imported.

Kind regards,

If you look in the site folder to which you have imported the snapshot from the other machine you do not see a folder called 'NOT_CATALOG'? You will not find it on the machine from which you make the snapshot. The error message will provide you with the details if you click on the 'Details' button .. this is what it would look like..

Warnings
This site includes files that are outside the Actinic installation directory.
On importing the site these files will be delivered to a temporary location within the Actinic installation directory.
Manual intervention will be required to restore the site after import.
