In the project I'm working on, we have web resource files (e.g. JS, CSS, images, etc) stored in Vignette.
As a web developer I find this cumbersome to work with, since I frequently update these files, and since each upload of a file requires several clicks and waiting for up to 5 seconds on each click.
It would be awesome if I could instead update the files via FTP or some kind of HTTP interface, etc.
Is it possible to set this up?
If the files were uploaded in Vignette Application Portal as secondary files for a style tag, they end up buried in the template staging area for your VAP web server.
Something like: weblogic/userprojects/domains/previewdom/servers/previewserver1/stage/vignette_portal/portal/templates/HASH/Uploaded files
The HASH above denotes a hash Vignette correlates to a VAP site instance (if you only have one site, it will be the only hash folder in the templates directory).
Note: This is only a temporary place to make changes CSS and image files, after the server restarts, directory names may change and files may be deleted.
You can edit/upload primary files (JSP, GIF, CSS, HTML, ...) for the following component types over WebDAV:
• Secondary Pages
• Styles
• Grids
More details can be found in the Developer's Guide (Editing Site Components Using WebDAV).
