[opencms-dev] How to specify where static export should be exporting files ?

[Michael Emmerich]

I guess you are mixing something up here........

OpenCms always stores its pages in an internal xml format.
This content is inserted into the templates and OpenCms generates the 
HTML out of it.

The Extended HTML-Import is a tool to convert already existing HTML 
pages into the xml format that is used by OpenCms, so that you can use 
the content of your already existing pages within a template.

The Synchronization is ment to synchronize the OpenCms Virtual File 
system with the one of your server, its main usage for template 
development and not for the end user (content editor). So if you 
synchronize your imported pages, you will of course find some xml files 
on your server after that.

What you are looking for is the "static export" feature. If enabled, 
OpenCms will staticly export your published generated pages to the 
server filesystem. Search the mailing list for this subject.

I think you also should take a look at the documentation modules which 
are delivered with OpenCms to get an idea how templates etc work in OpenCms.
