Easy what to export site for local development?

[JC]

Hi I would like to export our website and make modifications is there a easy way to do this? 

I am currently opening up the pages in firefox and copying the code. 

Is there an open text tool to do this?

Thanks

JC,

 

If you just need the code you should be able to steal it from your test publication or live publication server. You might be able to create a project varient that just publishes only the gut of the code you need. There are a lot of people in this group that know a lot about project varients. Or...

 

You can also export out your project and then import it back into OpenText as a test project if you want to adjust templates and code and not effect the real thing. I have done this for cases where someone want to know what this new stylesheet looks like or for user/usability testing. If you have the avaliable projects in OpenText you can always convert it to a regular project and change the publication location to a test server to see if your modifications work. Once you are done testing tranfer changes back to the real project and just delete the test project in OpenText and delete your test database.

 

hope that helps some but there are some awesome people in this group if it is more complex.

Thanks I will look into this.
