RE: how to copy to web while including all files in folder and subfolders



Hello JRL,

According to your description, you want to copy all the files/folders into
remote website by Visual Studio. But you found that VS didn't copy the
files within the folders, correct? If I misunderstood anything here, please
don't hesitate to correct me.

Could you please let me know which version of VS you are using (VS 2005 or
VS 2008)?

To copy all files at once, you can follow the steps as blew:
1. Right-click on the Source Web Site panel
2. Click "copy site to remote" in context menu.

Note: All files are copied, overwriting existing files, with the following
exceptions:
1. An older version of a file is never copied over a newer version.
2. The files being copied include a deleted file and the target still has a
copy of the file.
3. The files being copied are changed in the target site.

Have you checked if the files being copied include a deleted file on your
remote site?
To see files that have been deleted, select the "Show Deleted Files" check
box. The names of deleted files have a glyph next to them indicating that
they have been deleted.

Hope this helps. Let me know if this is the root cause. We are glad to
assist you.

Have a great day,
Best regards,

Wen Yuan
