Still working out the kinks for a couple of sites here and wanted to express some thoughts - Allow us to simply right click on a page in the documents pane, and publish ONLY that page, and the accompanying assets (pictures) locally. Another idea - instead of having a single option for where to place the rc_images for an entire project, also make that granular, so that each page could have a different sub folder. I'm sure photography websites would prefer to be able to keep portfolios separated both in local/ftp folders, as well as on different pages in the project, rather than dumping hundreds of pictures all into a single rc_images folder? Thanks for coming to my TED talk! |

Happy to join your TED talk ![]() I fully support your "publish ONLY" proposal. As for individual rc_images folders, I'm not so sure. I guess this would add a lot of complexity to the software, and the risk of bugs or failures might be bigger than the oppurtunities the feature would offer. I maintain a website on photography, and my rc_images folder currently hosts 556 items (images, thumbs, Java scripts). If I imagine I wanted to delete or replace a gallery I know I had a hard time to find and delete those images and thumbs which would no longer be needed in the rc_images folder. RocketCake won't do this for me. On the other hand: so what? If the obsolete images and thumbs started worrying me I would simply delete the existing rc_images folder and let RocketCake create a new one. (Of course, I had to do this on the server as well and had to live with the lengthy upload.) |

Good idea! Added to the TODO list. |

Just saying, my blog is at 3000 images now, and takes four hours to upload if I were to wipe everything and go at it again with my current internet speeds. Sadly, I am in the wilds of northern Ontario and so options are limited. I am trying a new syncronisation programme that seems promising and should reduce my unneeded uploads though - it might also solve some of this issue. It would be nice if I could have yearly folders, and then if a year went sideways, I could just publish only THAT year and folder, and then wipe and upload, rather than having to do the current 13-14 years worth. Cheers! |

I meant the "publish only" option, but will also think about the other. I also thought about only rewriting changed files, so you could sort the written files in explorer by date changed, which would probably also be useful. |
