Site Wizard: Advanced Range
(Pro version only)
This page tells PageNest how far to look for files. The range only affects HTML files. Any other files which are necessary to display the page completely will be fetched from anywhere on the server, or on other servers.
Page depth refers to the number of links between pages and is not based on the folders in which the pages are stored. The starting page (eg index.html) has a depth of one. If this links to a page, Contents.html, which links to another page, Dogs.html, then Contents.html has a depth of two and Dogs.html has a depth of three.
Index.html (depth 1) -> Contents.html (depth 2) -> Dogs.html (depth 3)
Setting the page depth to two will retrieve Index.html and Contents.html but not Dogs.html
The first section gives options for the primary server. If you check Only sub-pages PageNest will download files from the specified folder and any subfolders of that folder only (this only applies to web pages - not sub-items like graphics). If the option is unchecked any files from any folder on the server will be downloaded. You can limit the page depth of a search by checking Up to a depth of n pages and entering a value in the box or download to any depth by checking all pages.
If you only want to retrieve pages from the primary server check Don't visit other servers. If you choose to visit other servers check Up to a depth of n servers and enter the number of servers in the box.
If you chose to visit other servers you can then specify the depth of pages to download from other servers by entering a value in Up to a depth of n pages or, to download all pages check All pages.
