Publishing overview

Site Designer gives you two ways to put your content online: publish to CoffeeCup’s own S-Drive hosting, or export the files to your computer and host the site on any server you choose.

Publish to S-Drive

With Publish to S-Drive, the app does the work for you: it uploads all your files to your CoffeeCup account automatically. Click the Settings toolbar button, switch to the Publish section, and enter your CoffeeCup account information.

See Publish to CoffeeCup S-Drive for what S-Drive hosting includes.

Export

The Export method generates a folder containing every file your website needs. That gives you the freedom to upload the site to your own hosting with any upload utility. Click either the Export toolbar icon or go to File → Export to begin.

See Export to a folder for what gets generated and how to upload it elsewhere.
