Before you publish a project as a Web site for the first time, you might choose to create a new folder on your computer or network or verify that the existing folder you want to use is empty.
- Open the project you want to publish.
- Choose Tools, Publish, Project Web Site.
- Click the General tab.
- In the Web Site Name field, type the title of the Web site.
- In the Web Site Description field, type a description of the Web site. This description appears on the Web site's initial page.
- In the Publish Directory field, type the full path for the folder in which you want to save the project's Web site files, or click
and select the location.
- Click Edit Scheme to modify the specified scheme or select another scheme.
- Click the Topics tab and mark the appropriate checkboxes to specify the project information you want to publish on the project's Web site.
The checkboxes determine what Activity Details are available on the project Web site. If you clear all checkboxes, then the General activity information option is automatically selected because at least one type of activity detail information must be included in the Web site. - Click the Graphics tab and specify which activity or tracking layouts to include as graphical reports in the Web site.
- Click the Reports tab and specify which reports to include in the Web site.
- Click Publish.
If the folder you selected contains older Web site files or other files, a message warns you that those files will be deleted. Choose Yes to continue or No to cancel.
Tip
- To preview the Web site after creating the files, mark the Automatically Launch Web Site Preview After Publishing checkbox in the General tab.
