* IN CUMULUS 1.x.y ONLY: The ''standard pages'' are uploaded after a 'change directory' attempting to select the directory you specified in '''Sites/Options'''; if this fails, the files will still be uploaded but to the FTP server root. So some mistakes do not matter because if no change of directory was actually required, these pages will be uploaded correctly.
* AnyIN ''filesCUMULUS youMX, the specify'' for uploading at standard update frequency are uploaded between standard pages (if 'Include Standard Files' selected)are anduploaded (writtenwith fortheir Cumulusfile 1)name standardprefixed imagesby (ifthe 'Include Standard Images' selected), anddirectory you should specify the path (including any web site directory)specified in 'remote filenames', so there is no call to 'change directorySites/Options'''. In this case, if that path is invalid, the upload fails.
* Any ''files you specify'' for uploading at standard update frequency are uploaded between standard pages (if 'Include Standard Files' selected) and (applies only to Cumulus 1) standard images (if 'Include Standard Images' selected). You should specify the path (including any web site directory) in 'remote filenames', as there is no call to 'change directory'. In this case, if that path is invalid, the upload fails.
* IN CUMULUS 1.x.y ONLY: The standard images for gauges and trends pages are uploaded after the standard pages, (and any pages you specify for uploading), by performing a second 'change directory' this time fixed at 'images'; if this fails, the files will still be uploaded to the current web site directory (FTP root or the directory you specified in '''Sites/Options''').
* If you have enabled ''Realtime'', the realtime.txt file is uploaded without doing a change directory, (by appending "/realtime.txt" to the directory on the ''Internet settings'' screen in '''Sites/Options'''). In this case, if the web site directory in your settings is invalid, the upload of the real time file fails.
