i haven't been able to get my themes copied to my cd;
although they are on the folder on the hard drive. i
noticed that the hidden files on the folder on the hard
drive has themes as one of the hidden files; but they are
not on the cd-how do i get the cd to copy all files and in
particular the hidden files?
aloha,
peter
 
In FP: Tools | Web Settings | Advanced | Enable viewing of hidden
directories. Then publish the web to a folder on your HD, delete all _vti
folder, then burn your CD for the remaining content of the folder.

Hi,

I would have recommended to burn the entire webfolder as a whole (instead of
selecting the files and folders in it). I'm curious to know why the _vti
folder has to be deleted?

The _vti folders are not needed nor are they ever published between
machines. The _vti folders contain info that is machine/web specific.
