Exclude images folder 14 Years, 4 Months ago

Karma: 0

Hi Edwin

Is it possible to exclude the images folder when creating a slave site? Right now when I create the slave all of the images from the customer facing site gets sent to the slaves.

The manual states this is not possible. I have the following setup in the template screencast.com/t/MGM5NjlhYzYt

Basically what is happening is images from the customer facing site are copied into the slave site AND the gz file is ALSO unzipped into that dir.

Some files and folders cannot be customized because they have a specific
processing. This concern:
- the “index.php” and “index2.php” that can not be a link because this
may crash website. We create a basic PHP include of the original file
present in the master directory for those files.
- The cache folder, the log folder, the tmp folder, the media folder, the
image folder, and the themes folder.

I am not able to reproduce it. In my case it works perfectly. Did you put something in the "common" iimage folder or did you let it empty. In my case, I have let the path empty and just put the "unzip" action with a file name like {root}/tmp/images.zip

By saying the common images folder do you mean the one that has the JMS component installed on it? Yes that is our main customer facing site that have a lot of images in there. It unzips just fine, but it also includes all of the images that I don't want. Dave

Hi Edwin So this would come as an enhancement request. Would be possible to have another function in this area to say create folder ONLY and unzip? This would allow us to NOT replicate the main site images dir, and include a complete separate set of images. Basically any setting I make always copies the images from the main site. Dave

NO. I think you make a bad configuration in your JMS templates and that you have setup the "common" tabs with a images folder. It works perfectly when the image folder and medial folders are empty in the "common" tabs.
