After you have changed your server and local versions (w/ the subwebs) make sure you have at least publish once using All pages to
get the 2 site in sync in FP
- then changed pages only should work
Before you do that clear your web cache files
In Windows Explorer Find and delete all hidden *.web files
Usually in %USERPROFILE%\Application Data\Microsoft\Web Server Extensions\Cache
And run a Tools Recalculate Hyperlinks in the local site you are publishing from

| OK, I reread Thomas A. Rowe's answer to my original query about
| avoiding being asked, and he originally suggested I go onto the remote
| server thru FP, and make the folders subfolders on the remote server.
|
| So I just went and did that, and published, and FP did not delete the
| files in 2002-2005. Hooray! Thanks again to Thomas A. Rowe!!
|
| However, FP still acting a bit weird.
|
| Two things:
|
| 1. When I just published, it gave me a "Server error" that a certain
| named folder (not one of those in the blogger files) had been modified
| in 2003! I clicked ok, and it then proceeded to publish.
|
| 2. The other weird thing is, even though I checked only publish
| changed files, and there was only one changed file since the last
| time, FP seemed to republish everything.
|
| In ftp that would take 7-8 minutes, but using http it only took about
| 20 seconds, so it's not that terrible.
|
| But how can I get it to properly only republish changed files when I
| check that?
