Duh. Should have sussed that when the path to the .rlm is FL + media.


Just a bit confusing, why does the uploaded graphic file show as Not in use

Upload it inot the media folder via properties / media and quota. FileLocation refers to the USER DATA folder for the piece, so FileLocation + ‘media/blah.jpg’ will then work. From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

Subject: [Xerte] XOT and FileLocation 

I have a couple of desktop Xerte icons saved as a model.
One of the icons is a graphic with FileLocation + 'my.gif'


In XOT I do Insert> Media> Xerte content.
The .rlm uploads.


Where should the graphic go?
Or how should I path it to get to the media file?


When it didn't appear initially, I uploaded it to the media folder beside the .rlm.
It uploaded but says "Unused". Didn't work.


Then I realized, Filelocation isn't there anymore anyway, as the. rlm is being loaded into something else
So I uploaded the graphic to the root of XOT beside XMLEngine.
No dice there either.


I hardcoded the path to another spot on my server, which works, but seems "wrong".
