Syncing your website from the local network to Reasonate
Posted 02 Jun 2006 at 1:57pm to the Reasonate News project by David Harrison
When submitting your website to Reasonate run through the following checklist:
- Have you have copied your website onto the R-Drive?
- Is the website in the correct directory? (the one with your name)
- Is index.html at the very top of the folder structure (i.e. not buried three folders down)
- Have you checked the site by going to:
http://www.vuw.ac.nz/architecture-onlineteaching/courses/bbsc303/students/2006/(Lastname)_(Firstname)
If you answer yes to all of those questions then press the sync button on Reasonate. You will find it on your blog page next to the Edit and Tag This buttons. It looks like an arrow going around in a circle.

Once you have pressed the button a little message will tell you that the sync process has started. Reasonate will go to the location mentioned in step 4 and open the index.html file. Using this file as a reference it will copy across all the linked files and references, literally rebuilding your website on the Reasonate server. If all goes correctly you should have a carbon copy of your website on Reasonate. If something fails check this post for some answers, make a few changes and start the sync process again.
