Thread: Changing destination of files

Can anyone help? I've been working on my website using my works laptop, however they are giving me a new one, so I have transferred all my files onto my PC. However, when I open the pages in BV they cannot find any of the files as the destination file has changed. Is there a quick and easy way of changing all the destinations of the files, or do I have to re-direct each one. The old path was "c:\documents and settings\igloo games\my documents\bluevoda\images\welcome to.jpg" - Igloo Games being my works name. I have created this path on my PC and it works fine, but I would like to save all my files onto a seperate hard drive as I frequently format my C drive. Any suggestions?? Thanks for your help.

Are you using BlueVoda version 7.0?
If you've copied the complete folder (including images), BlueVoda automaticly looks for the files in case the path has changed.

I've copied the folders with the pages, but they werent originally saved in the same place. I had the pages saved in a personal folder, with all the images saved in My Documents/bluevoda/images - and yes, I am using 7.0

I'm sorry if that doesn't work there is no other way than to manually change the path to each image.

To prevent this behaviour in the future read this:

This explains how you can force BlueVoda to use another folder.

Cheers Pablo. Ive changed the destination folder for BV. At the moment, when I am updating my pages and publishing them, it is automtically changing the destination of all the files etc... on each page. So eventually (when I update each page) it will all be in the same place. Thanks again for your help and advice - you've saved me a lot of time editing the path of each file! :o)
