My website files are scattered in different areas of my PC. Can I just move all files with .wp? extensions to one directory
of the hard drive? Do these file contain all assets for the website?

The WYSIWYG main file has the extension .wbs. You should also find a folder (subdirectory) with the same name as the .WBS file which contains all the assets for that site.

I'm not sure what .WP files are related to.

Are you sure you have given the correct file extension name?. Files using the .wp extension are associated with the WordPerfect application and have nothing to do with WYSIWYG Web Builder. The following extension (s) used in WB are .wbs this is for your project, templates use .wtp or .wwb for older templates, and extension (s) .wbx and .uwbx

BTW this only applies if you have the "Let WYSIWIG Web Builder manage images and other files used by a project" option set in Options > Files and Folders > Asset management.

Good point - but i find that is the best way of ensuring all the files needed are in one place (thank you, Pablo, for giving us that option)

Thanks to everyone for the advice. I had a typo in my original post, it was supposed to be wb? not wp?.

It looks like I could move all the wbs and wbx files to the WYSIWYG Web Builder directory. It appears that the folders are all there even though the wbs file are in a different directory.
