I have a website on my computer. Can I import it into RocketCake? |
||||
|
I'm going to suggest that you'll just have to do loads of cutting and pasting. I've made converting my wordpress blog to RocketCake a long term project where I just do a couple entries a day... |

Discouraging, but it is the truth. I wish there was an "Extract" in the program that would allow one to locate their website, insert the URL and away we go. Many Thanks |

I made a page for the site and published it to my local drive. How do I open it again for editing now? When trying to open index.html, it gives an error: "I made a page for the site and published it to my local drive. How do I open it again for editing now? When trying to open index.html, it gives an error" |

You need to open the .rcd file which is saved when you click "save" in RocketCake. That's the project file of your website. |

How often does it have to be said that it is technically impossible to import published html files. This is not possible with any web design software. And even if it worked, you would have to rework so much that you can do it again right away. There is also a reason why you are always asked if you want to save before you close Rocket Cake.  Incidentally, you should get into the habit of clicking Save regularly while you are working. Because there is no automatic storage function. And if the program crashes, then all the work has been in vain. You should also save the project file in a safe place every time you finish your work. Because if you lose that, then you can start all over with your work. And if you then have a website with 150 subpages, like mine, then that would be a disaster. Then hundreds of hours of work would have been in vain. |

Actually, Kompozer was able to import a live webpage and allow you to edit same. I did it many many times for years. The only reason I stopped using Kompozer is that it will not publish to a website protected with SSL - don't know why, but it just won't. It would publish to my web server for years before I had SSL installed. |
