Managing Folders

Templates in Recite CMS are organised into folders. You can add, edit and delete folders as required. Once created you can create templates in the folder.

Creating a Folder

There are two ways to create a folder. Firstly, you can select the New Folder button from the template browser. The newly-created folder will be created within the currently active folder.

Secondly, you can click New Folder at the bottom of the tree view widget. The newly-created folder will be created within the currently selected folder.

After clicking either of these buttons a dialog box will appear with options for creating the new folder. Enter a name for the folder and click Save New Folder.

After the folder has been created the template browser and tree view will both be updated to include the new folder.

Editing a Folder

To rename an existing folder, you can either click the Edit button beside the relevant folder in the file browser, or you can click the Edit Folder button at the bottom of the template browser (this is used for editing the active folder).

A dialog will now appear which is the same as the folder creation dialog. Update the details as required and click Save Folder Changes.

The template browser and tree view will now reflect this change.

Moving a Folder

Moving a folder involves using the tree view widget. Drag the folder you want to move to its new location within the tree and its new position will be saved.

Warning

This will also move all its children folders and templates.

Deleting a Folder

Folders can be deleted from within the file browser widget using one of two methods. Firstly, you can click the Delete button beside the folder you want to delete.

Secondly, if you want to delete the currently loaded folder click Delete Folder at the bottom of the widget.

Before any folders are deleted you will be prompted to confirm the deletion.

Warning

Deleting a folder will delete all folders and templates within the folder. Deleting a folder cannot be undone.
