Organizing pages using sub-folders?
Hi,
I suspect that this might be a common question, but was unable to find it in previous posts. Anyway, what I'd like to do is to arrange the pages within in my site by creating folders. At the moment, I have a rapidly growing number of pages in my site, all at the same level.
Is what I want to achieve possible? And if so, will this hierarchical structure be reflected in the published site?

You can create a second site in iWeb and link to it using the standard navigation bar, if you are prepared to do some simple post publishing editing. You only need to insert one line of code.
This way you could have a link in the nav bar called Photos, and when someone clicks on it, it opens a the second site. You may want to put link back to the main site in the nav bar of site 2.
Take a look at my Test_Site and click on the WillG4PB link.
Post back if this appeals to you and I will go through how to do it.

Problem with UIX Pages in sub folders
I want to group my UIX pages into sub folders to maked definition of security constraints more convenient.
The New UIX Page wizard doesn't allow creation into a sub folder so I have created a blank page and then renamed it into a subfolder using File>>Rename menu option. However, now when I drag Data Control bindings onto the page they fail to bind properly. (No data appears when I run the page.)
Is there a fundamental problem with placing UIX pages into sub folders? Is it something I shouldn't do? Requiring a flat file structure seems an onerous restriction!
Thanks
Matthewyes. this is a known problem when you are running UIX pages and not struts dataactions.
For the model bindings to work, you currently have to keep
all your uix pages in the top level directory.
However, if you use the struts-pageflow with UIX pages, then you can keep you UIX pages where ever you want. -
Using sub-folders to create albums on the iphone - bug discovered?
I searched the forum yesterday looking for help on this subject, but couldn't find anything specific to the issue, so pardon me in advance if this has already been discussed...
Photos on my computer are organized this way:
My Pictures
----2010
------03-01-10 Vacation
------04-15-10 pictures of dog
----------dog one
----------dog two
------04-22-10 pictures of kids
(4 layers of folders)
If I choose to sync with the 'My Pictures' folder, and include all sub-folders, I end up with 500 photos in the Photo Library on the phone, and no 'albums'.
If I sync with the folder 04-15-10 pictures of dog, and include all sub-folders, I get two albums labeled dog one, and dog two.
Turns out that if you have more than one layer of sub-folder under the folder that you're syncing with, iTunes sync fails and does not create Albums. It just puts all of the photos as a big blob into the Photo Library.
Solution is to reorganize the folder like this:
My Pictures
----10-03-01 Vacation
----10-04-15 pictures of dog
----10-04-15 pictures of dog one
----10-04-15 pictures of dog two
----10-04-22 pictures of kids
That way, all of the photos are still organized by year, month, day, but I've eliminated two layers of folders. Sync with iphone/ipad, and you're golden.
Hope that helps the next person fighting this problem.You need to setup Hotmail as an Exchange account:

My photos are located in albums in iPhoto, however when I sync with my photo Ipod the albums are not there. How do I download those albums? All of the photos are downloaded, just not in albums.. Thanks....

Solution to using Site Root with Sub-folders on Testing Server & Browser Previews
Hi Everyone
Have found an elegant solution when using Site Root relative linking for a website, that allows browser previews, even when the testing server uses sub-folders and the live code references just the server site root " / " of the live server and not the sub-folder structure of the testing server. This is really useful when you don't want to use document relative linking, which normally takes care of this problem in Dreamweaver.
The solution is to use sub-domains referencing the sub-folders on the testing server, so the sub-folders appear as the root of each website and the html code pointing to the site root works correctly on both testing & live servers without alteration.
Testing Server Setup
One testing server domain is used for all client development work:
For example: www.testingserver.com
On the testing server there are multiple sub-folder (one for each client website being developed):
For example: www.testingserver.com/clientA/ , www.testingserver.com/clientB/ , www.testingserver.com/clientC/
Live Server Setup
The site code needs to be developed with the final live server folder structure (url references) in mind:
For example: www.livesite.com (with all pages referencing the root of the live site server)
Page URLs on Testing & Live Servers
/page-name.html
Testing server url: www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
Live server url: www.livesite.com/page-name.html (without /clientA/ sub-folder)
Browser Previews Don't Work
You want to be able to run browser previews on the testing server while developing the website. To do this you normally have to reference the sub-folder structure of the testing server in the url for things to work right:
For example www.testingserver.com/clientA/page-name.html
What do you do, when you can't keep switching all the urls in the code from pointing to the sub-folder to pointing to the site root, and you don't want to use document relative linking?
One Solution - Sub-domains on Testing Server
In your domain hosting (outside of Dreamweaver) setup a sub-domain to point to the testing server sub-folder.
For example: Sub-domain clientA.testingserver.com points to www.testingserver.com/clientA (sub-folder)
So now when you reference the sub-domain it sees the sub-folder as the site root and all your problems are solved.
Dreamweaver Site Definition Setup
Site Definition under "Local Info"
Links relative to: Site Root
Site Definition under "Remote Info" (live server)
Access: FTP
FTP host: ftp.livesite.com
Host directory: /
Site Definition under "Testing Server"
Access: FTP
FTP host: clientA.testingserver.com
Host directory: /
URL prefix: http://clientA.testingserver.com
(location of the site's root folder on the testing server, the sub-domain redirection takes care of pointing to the sub-folder)
This is just one solution but it works well for me as it doesn't have any cost associated with it under our hosting package where you can have multiple sub-domains setup.
Hope this helps someone in a similar situation.
AlyJust Google it, or run out and buy a copy of David Powers' Foundations Dreamweaver CS4 with CSS, Ajax and PHP, a book that is never out of reach for me. He details the process explicitly for both Mac and PC.
For me, on W7, I edit the C:/Windows/System32/drivers/etc/hosts file, and add the ip of my testing server along with the site alias -
192.168.1.82 site.local
Then I add this same designation to my httpd.conf file in Apache on the testing server. Finally I restart Apache.
Now from my production machine if I browse to "http://site.local", I get to see either the default file in the root of the site on the testing server, or a directory of the site on the testing server (my testing server is a unix box running on my LAN at that ip address). Furthermore, all of my root relative links now work as they would if the pages were being browsed from the live server. -
Exchange email folders and sub-folders: iPhone only pulling main "inbox"
Hello.
I've got iPhone set to access my Exchange email via IMAP. My work computer is an Win XP PRo, running Outlook 2007. My Outlook email folders are organized via rules that most important emails are automatically routed to specific folders (such as from a particular client or staff member).
My problem is The iPhone is only checking for mail in my main inbox. The only way I can get it to check for mail in my sub-folders is to click on the folder. This is a big problem, as I am missing notifications, and have over 35 subfolders!
I've tried and tried to find a setting I can change, or something...but cannot. Does anyone have any recommendations either via iPhone settings or my Outlook rules settings?
Thanks so much in advance!
SoviThanks for posting that thread. My problem is slightly different in that it won't pull the mail *at all* -- even to the inbox. The mail is only pulled if/when I click on the sub-folder. At that point, the mail goes go to the correct sub-folder.
For obvious reasons this is an issue -- I miss lots of mail!
I (we) can't be the only ones using sub-folders with this issue. -
Pages cannot create Sub- folders!
Boy! Ami disappointed! Apple's Pages software cannot support Sub-folders! I wanted to use ipa for everything and now I realize I cannot. I wanted to create a folder for Recipes with sub folders for desserts entrees etc. but since Pages does not support the sub folder I guess I will have to go back to my PC and Word! Anyone else had this dilemma ? That's a bad oversize by the software fols!
Can't be done.

encountered two problems:
1. instead of seeing the 7 sub folders in the external drive, all the images are out of order, entirely scrambled. when I open LR3 however, the contents of these folders are greyed out and show 0 images. I can see the question mark next to the image saying it is located elsewhere (i.e. on the external hd)If I plug in the external hd I can open the images and edit in CS5, but as I said it 's like finding a needle in the haystack.
2. no new space shows up on my mac hd even though that was the reason I made the export.
is there a way to fix this? I have a different external hd that backs up LR. Currently it is not plugged in. I am afraid to plug it in because it will take the new LR configuration and I'd lose any option to correct the problem. I also , on the same (different) hd I have Time Machine backup. would that help to fix the problem and bring back the organization I previously had with the 7 subfolders. All that organization is currently lost,i.e. show as greyed out 0 content in LR on my mac hd and shows as scrambled on the external hd.
Can I fix this??zarowin, you want to move the files. Not export them! See here: Move folders around in Lightroom | Adobe Photoshop Lightroom tutorials. There are two ways to do that. One is to move the folders inside Lightroom to your external HD, the other is to move them in the finder and reconnect the folders afterwards using the tips in the link dj linked to above. Also, you really should upgrade your Lightroom. LR 3 is not fully Yosemite compatible. I think the problems are mostly cosmetic though.
Periodically I get a prompt in lr asking if I want to back up lr and I have been consistent about doing so. At this point however, since those out of order images have be “exported” (am I using the right word??) to the second external hd, into a folder without subfolders, (hence the scrambling effect), if I were to plug in the external hd that is my backup drive (for time machine as well as for lr), won’t it be backing up the mistake I made by not using subfolders ongto the other external drive, thereby compounding the problem?
This warning has nothing to do with Time Machine. It is Lightroom's own backup. Every week or so, it will generate a backup Library that you can revert to in the case of trouble. In fact, you can usually safely delete the very old ones but keep them from the last month or so. Look for them in a folder called "Backups" right next to your main catalog file (probably in your Pictures folder). Be sure to only throw away the oldest backups. If you have never done this and have a large catalog with 10's of thousands of images you probably have easily 100 GB of these backups. Just calculate how much space you are wasting if you started doing this around LR 3, several years of backup catalogs at a frequency of once a week, and a typical catalog size of 1.5 GB (my main catalog is over 2GB).
Lastly, Time Machine backup doesn't overwrite older versions. It keeps versions around of all your catalog files (including the backups!). -
How can I collapse all my sub-folders when bookmarking a page?
In Safari when I go to bookmark a page all my sub-folders and their own sub-folders are shown,
Is there a way to collapse them all into just the main folders and then being able to choose the correct sub-folder from them to bookmark the page.
I have about 50 main folders but a few hundred sub-folders so when I go to bookmark a page it's very time consuming and annoying.
In Firefox just the main folders are shown, so I just choose the main folder and expand that and choose the appropriate sub-folder, Job done in seconds!
Many thanks in advance [ I hope! :-) ]Mackem55 wrote:

None that I know about. -

If anyone could help me I'd be so grateful!!
Thanks!!
Dearbhla BradleyThe exception is pretty clear. for some reason the script is not able to open the folder TestFolder1 on the local hard drive.
I noticed in the script you have specified the $Folder variable to be "C:\Users\user\Documents\SharepointTestFolder" while the exception is for "C:\FilePath\TestFolder\TestFolder1"
Will you please help me understand this difference?
Also, sorry I'm not familiar with the "recurse" calling method. I'm suspecting you're telling it to call the ImportFiles() function again, though if this is the case it looks to me that it's reusing the same $Folder variable that was defined at the start,
rather than using the folder object you have just identified.

[Mac OSX / JS] How to find images inside sub folders using getFiles?
Hi,
My script uses the variable myFolder to store the path for the images Folder. But when I try to use myFolder.getFiles() to retrieve images that are in sub folders the script fails. The result is null. What can I do to force myFolder.getFiles() to search inside all sub folders?
var myFolder = Folder().selectDlg("Select images Folder");
var myFiles = myFolder.getFiles();
I will appreciate any help.
Thanks,
CandidoHi John,
Thanks for your help.
I'm rushing to my work so I don't have enough time to sort it out at the moment.
If I understand you correctly, it should be something like so:
var files;
var folder = Folder.selectDialog( "Select a folder with images" );
if (folder != null) {
files = GetImages(folder);
if (files.length > 0) {
alert("Found " + files.length + " image files");
else {
alert("Found no image files");
function GetImages(theFolder) {
var imageFiles = [],
fileList = theFolder.getFiles(),
i, file;
for (i = 0; i < fileList.length; i++) {
file = fileList[i];
if (file instanceof Folder){
GetImages(file);
else if (file instanceof File && file.name.match(/\.(jpg|psd|tiff|pdf|eps)$/i)) {
imageFiles.push(file);
return imageFiles;
But it doesn't work.

How To Use Dynamic Menus To Place Manually Created Jspx Pages On Sub-Level
JHeadstarters,
Back on the JHS trail and could use some help.
I started using dynamic menus (see section 9.2 JHS Dev Guide) to setup a custom menu structure and found it could not be easier however I need to solve 2 issues;
1. How to get more than 2 levels deep on the menus (parent, child, grand-child, etc.)? In the menu structure setup I have created a menu that is 3-levels deep however when it runs you only get 2 levels. Perhaps a template needs to be changed.
2. How can I assign manually created jspx pages to sub-level menus?
Scenerio;
I have JHS generated pages *** AND *** manually created pages. Using dynamic menus to place the JHS genned pages works fine, the problem is how to do it with manually created pages.
Using Dynamic Menu's I created a top-level menu tab named "warp-core", below it on the next level I have two sub-menus, one named "search" and one named "form" for displaying the results of the search and modifying the rows (don't ask me why they are seperate).
The problem is how to assign the manually created jspx pages to those sub-menus? Or am I going abouth this the wrong way? Perhaps I could use JHS to generate seperate search and display pages.
Thanks!
BG...Bill,
1. Yes, you need to decide yourself how and where you want to render this third level menu. You then create a region file similar to dynamicMenu2Tabs.jspx, just replace the references to level2MenuItems with level3MenuItems. Then create a custom template to call this menu 3 region file.
For example, you could create a bulleted vertical list for level 3 as illustrated in section 9.1.3 of the Developers Guide (that example is with static menu, but you can use similar technique for dynamic menu)
2. Instead of a group name, you can specify a JSF Navigation action in the menu administration application. So, you create a global navigation case to your custom page, and you enter this navigation case id in the menu admin app.
Note that if you want to generate separate search pages, you can do so by setting the advanced search property to "separatePage".

I can´t use folders and sub folders in the screensaver now, whay´s that?
My problem is that since I install OS X Moutain Lion I only can choose one folder and doesn´t give me the option to mark olso sub folders. would you please tell me why you take that option that was so great to use?
thank youBecause Apple doesn't want you to have choices. They also remove many previously installed ones, apparently because they would work well with their retina displays. I restored those. File a bug report with Apple for lost functionality.

Dynamically Creating Sub Folders using ECMA
Hi,
I have a requirement to create a a folder and then a sub folder in that and set its Name and Title dynamically. I am able to crate the folder however not the sub folder. Please suggest any technical way.
Thanks,
Debasis RoyNo worries - I located another thread that provided the answer. I rather think it may be better for me - with the number of folders and sub-folders I have in my Pictures Library - to use the tree facility under Folders in Organizer.

Reading sub folders in ifs using the ifs api
hi,
Is there any way i could get all the sub folders under the parent folders ,using the ifs api.
i am able to get the all the folders starting from the root ( parent folders) but i am unable to get the folders under each parent folder.
for example
at my root level i have folders x, y ,z etc..
and under x i have folders a,b,c etc.
i am able to get x,y,z but not able to get the sub folders under x i.e a, b,c folders etc.
Thanks
ArvindA much more elegant method would be to utilize the oracle.ifs.search package!
You will see in there a Folder Restrict Qualification.
You can set your search class to be Folder.CLASS_NAME
