Import settings |
|
Update site definition |
Displayed only when importing to an existing site. If enabled, all settings stored as a part of the site object will be updated with those contained in the package. These settings are contained in the Site\cms_site.xml file inside the export package. |
Assign all objects to the imported site (recommended) |
If enabled, all imported site-related objects will be assigned to the imported site. |
Run the site after import |
If enabled, the imported site will be run after the import process finishes. |
Delete incomplete site when import fails |
If enabled, incompletely imported site will be deleted when the import process fails. |
Do not import objects where parent object is missing |
If enabled, child objects whose parent objects are not found will be skipped and the import process will continue. |
Import tasks (recommend) |
If enabled, delete tasks (incremental deployment) included in the package will be performed. |
Import files (recommended) |
Some objects in the database are linked with physical files in the file system. If you check this check-box, such files contained in the package will be imported too. |
Import global folders |
If checked, global files originally found under the folders listed below will be imported: - <web project>\App_Code\Global - <web project>\CMSGlobalFiles |
Import assembly files |
If enabled, bound assembly files will be imported together with notification gateways, payment options, integration connectors, scheduled tasks and smart search indexes if they are included in the package. |
Import site folders |
If checked, files originally found under the folders listed below will be imported: - <web project>\App_Code\<site code name> - <web project>\<site code name> |
Log staging synchronization tasks |
Indicates if staging tasks reflecting changes made by the import should be logged on the target server (typically when you want to synchronize the imported data to other staging servers). |
Log integration tasks |
Indicates if outgoing integration tasks should be logged for changes made by the import (typically when you want to transfer the imported data to a system connected via System integration bus). |
Overwrite system queries |
If checked, system queries will be overwritten by those contained in the package. See the info box below for more details. |
|
Overwrite system queries
This option is displayed only when importing from version older than the current one; if checked, all queries from the package will be imported and will overwrite the current ones; if the package contains your own custom queries that you added to the system, it is necessary to have this option enabled.
