About uploads and updates


For a first-time upload, the entire site is copied to the server. Subsequent uploads are normally updates that synchronize the local and server-based sites. For updates, you have two choices:
  • Incremental uploads copy only new site files and site files whose local modification dates are later than the modification dates of the corresponding files on the server. (If both the server file and the local file have been modified and the server file has a later modification date, the local file won't be uploaded.)
  • Modified-item uploads copy only new site files and site files that have been modified in Adobe GoLive since the previous upload. (If a local file has been modified outside of Adobe GoLive, it won't be uploaded whatever its modification date is.)

    • You can also perform selection uploads that copy your own selection of site files.This method is useful if an update method causes problems--for example, if your system has crashed during an incremental upload so that the server has incomplete files that need replacing but the new modification dates of these files makes updating them with another incremental upload impossible.
