All pictures doubled into the root

Post by Kantonia »

https://sonnenastro.de/2026/Sonnenastro2026.zip

Though I have a clear folder structure and defined all picture links to the image-folders in the specific item, when "published" the program copys all pictures to the root i.e. the place where the index file is.

So I have a big index folder and image folders too

Check your settings. Where have you asked WWB to publish the images?

I have published your website and there are no images in the root. Only html and CSS. The images are in the 'images' folder as specified in your settings.
What do I need to do to see the issue?

Look at the added Screenshot of the root.

I just published your project. All the files were in the correct place. No duplicates. This is what it looks like.

Havew you tried deleting all files at the target location and republishing everything? Try that.

If that doesn't work, check the options. Open WWB, go to Tools -> Options. The click on Publish and check the file type putput folder. On my system, all the pictures are in 'images'. What does yours say? This is mine:

Are you sure these files are generated by the software?
Maybe they are already in this folder, before publish?

The project you have shared seem to be working correct. There are no file in the root.

If you need further assistance, then please describe the exact steps to reproduce this behavior with the project you have shared.

I spent the whole morning controlling all picture files, setting the right links and deleting all in the root. Then I ran "publishing" again and that was the result.
The Option settings are exactly the same as in your screenshot.

I'm going now to delete all picture files in the root and publish again. I'll report what happens.
