7.1.3 Deleting a Site Connection

You can remove the site connections that you create in Designer. This removes only the connection and not the actual Web site on the content server see note below. To remove a site connection, you must first disconnect from the site if it is currently open in Designer. To delete a site connection, perform these tasks: 1. If you are currently connected to the site to edit, click the Disconnect icon Figure 7–5 in the Site toolbar or select File, then Site, and then Disconnect. Figure 7–5 Disconnect icon 2.

Creating Your Web Site 7-5 To delete the actual Web site on the content server, you must log on to the server and delete the project file created by Site Studio. Before you do this, you must stop the running Web site see Starting and Stopping a Web Site on page 7-9 so that revisions of the project file are not checked in automatically when you are trying to delete it.

7.2 Site Addressing

Like any Web site, in Site Studio you must associate an address with your Web site so that you, contributors, and visitors can locate the site with a web browser. Site Studio can identify a Web site using a folder address, a domain address, or a combination of both. The Administrator can specify a domain, a folder, or a combination to map to a particular Web site. When you first set up your site in Designer, you have a folder name address, which comprises the name of the hosting computer and the site ID. This address works well for internal purposes, such as a departmental Web site or a demonstration site. However, if you intend to make the site publicly available on the Internet, you should configure one or more domain names and point them to the site. A folder-based site, using a folder address, uses only the folder to identify a site. An example of this would be www.oracle.comSiteStudio, where the folder SiteStudio identifies the specific site on the domain. A domain-based site uses simply a domain to identify a site. Examples would be www.oracle.com, or sales.mycompany.com. The domain identifies the site. The combination of both uses a domain and a folder or any number of folders. Common examples of this are to use language folders, such as www.oracle.comen or www.oracle.comfr. Using the combination of domain and folder also creates a convenient way to move your site from design to the production system. A domain address requires additional DNS configuration that the site manager or site administrator must perform. These topics cover site addressing in greater detail: ■ Mapping Domain Names to Your Site on page 7-5 ■ Changing the Path Used in a Site Address on page 7-7

7.2.1 Mapping Domain Names to Your Site

A domain name is a unique name that identifies a Web site. You can point one or more domain names to your Site Studio Web site, and you most likely do this if you plan to make your site publicly available on the Internet. The way to do this is get the domain name, configure it on a name server, and then map the domain name to your site using Site Studio. This topic only discusses the last step, mapping the domain name. For help configuring the domain name, contact the appropriate third party. There are two places in Site Studio where you can map a domain name: ■ Mapping a Domain Name Using Designer on page 7-6 ■ Mapping a Domain Name Using the Manage Web Site Addresses Page on page 7-6
