Working with Site Projects

Site Projects make it easy to develop and manage your websites. A Site Project contains a list of all files that make up your website. The Site Project can be managed on the Task Manager Pane by clicking the project tab.

You can quickly open all files that make up your website, by double-clicking on its name in the project file lists.

An unlimited number of files can be added to projects, and can be easily removed when they are no longer required.

The files that make up Site Projects are sorted into two categories - Editor Files and Other Files. The Editor File list displays those documents that can be edited through BestAddress while the Other File list contains supporting files that make up a website such as images, sound, video and controls. These files can not be edited, but double clicking them will activate the appropriate function in BestAddress for inserting into the currently open document.
