How to clean up my deploy folder?
-
Today I deployed my first application to the webserver. I managed to promote the code, however when I upload I see a lot of old stuff. Those are deleted files, some images etc. Is there an easy way to cleanup the deployment without going into the file explorer and do it all manually?

Hey Jules, you have 2 options afaik.
1.- Clean throug Deployment
- Click on the Deployment Menu
- Select the Promote option (broom icon)
This will clean the project and remove most of the debugging options.
2.-Purge the Deployment Folder
- Make a backup of your deployment folder.
- Click no the Deployment Menu
- Click on the "Purge deployment folder" option
- Rebuild the applications and promote your code again
you are set to go.
Gotta be careful with the second option because it empties the folder... which means that if you had images, additional js, css, etc in the folder outside of what phspeed generates you will lose it.
Happy Coding brother.

In addition, you can safely use the option to purge the deployment version, as this is being re-generated when you generate your project. Next, deploy your images, and perform the promote code procedure. Upload your deployment folder.
After uploading, you need to recover the runtime as that is also promoted. If you don't, then debugging will not work.
