Hi,
My daughter was just advised that her student site, and others, at Cal Arts are about to be discontinued -- this week. I see that they are created in Gallery. She owns the domain for her name, which is currently forwarded to the Cal Arts site, and we can unforward it and recreate the site for her if she can obtain the files in their correct order.

Can I assume that if she obtains her site folder from CA's FTP file, that is all she will need to re-establish it elsewhere, or are there other Gallery files on CA's servers that have to be obtained?

(The reason I ask is that I recently tried to migrate a site created in iWeb, and there were apparently files ("domain file in Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb") that did not get transferred.)

Thank you for any assistance!
Maggie

You need more than that.
