A website is the visual representation of info you need to gather that was built using sophisticated lines of code. The other difficult part when setting up a website is getting through legal components and actually make it visible to the end user. In this regard, Web Site Publisher promises to make your new website accessible and up to date with only a few mouse clicks.

The application comes equipped with two modes in which the job can be done. By default, the wizard automatically attempts to guide you through a series of steps so that you are not overwhelmed with requirements.

Each “Next” button you press brings a different field you need to fill in, starting from your website's name and source files, to FTP server you received from your hosting provider, as well as credentials needed to log in and connection settings.

On the other hand, you can skip the wizard and take your time and configure what the application has to offer. Most of the steps found in the first method can be edited here, but with more options to configure.

What's more, after your website is published, the application lets you constantly conceive new updates and have them automatically uploaded to the website. Cleanup is also an important aspect, with the possibility to have no longer existing files in the source directory removed.

The main window displays websites that you selected in order to monitor and publish, along with status and date of the last update. Before actually giving end users access to your content, a check can be issued in order to test connectivity and the overall process.

Web Site Publisher offers an easy set of tools with the help of which you can get your new website up and running, with the possibility to keep it up to date. What's more, ease of access is guaranteed by the intuitive step-by-step wizard that makes sure publishing is done only after every aspect and connection is in order.

What's new in Web Site Publisher 2.3.0 Build 2725:

Bug fix: Resolved issue where publishing could stop with the error "failed to create directory" if the "local image" option was used.
Bug fix: The logic which determined whether a website needed updating did not correctly interpret a leading slash in the names of any folders (to ignore or exclude) as meaning off the root-folder. So it may have incorrectly indicated that a website needed updating or did not need updating.
The text on the properties window of a website now contains a brief note that a leading backslash indicates that the folder or file is relative to the root. So '\log' (without the quotes) will match against the folder 'log' in the root (i.e. the top most directory) of the website, but not against '\some\log', whereas 'log' (without the leading back slash) will match against the name log where ever it is found.
Change: If on the file exclusions (text file and permissions) a file name is specified with a leading backslash ("\") then it is treated as being relative to the root. This is different from the previous behaviour where there was always an implied wildcard added. For example "\sample.log" will only match against the file "sample.log" in the root, previously it would have matched against "sample.log" in any folder. Be aware that a wildcard can match against anything so "\*.log" will match against "\sample.log" and "folder\ano.log".
