<br />
The '''webfiles''' (all lowercase) folder in both the legacy Cumulus and MX contains sub-folders and files that need to be uploaded to your web server in a on-off operation, if (and only if) you want to use the standard web pages provided as examples with Cumulus.<br />
<br />
If your web server is provided by an organisation, then you will need to use a [[FTP tools|FTP, SFTP, or FTPS]]<br />
<br />
If your web server is only going to be used for web pages related to Cumulus, <br />
#upload the contents of the ''/webfiles''' folder to your root folder (do not create a "webfiles" sub-folder) on your web server. <br />
#Preserve the structure for any sub-folders, so files on your web server are in same position relative to '''root''' that they were relative to '''webfiles'''.<br />
<br />
If your web server is to be used for other purposes, you might want to create a sub-folder (perhaps called '''weather''') under your '''root''' folder for the contents of '''webfiles'''.<br />
<br />
'''The contents of this folder may vary between releases.'''<br />
<br />
For Cumulus 1, please see [[Simple_Website_setup#Folders_and_Files_to_Transfer_just_Once]]. There are lots of files, some in sub-folders.<br />
<br />
For MX releases 3.0.0 to 3.9.7, the instructions that existed in this Wiki (with list of sub-folders and files) have been removed. But like the legacy Cumulus and later MX releases, you simply copy the entire folder to your web server, preserving structure as described above.<br />
<br />
For any release of MX from 3.10.1 onwards, please see [[New_Default_Web_Site_Information#Installing_the_new_template_for_new_users|3.10.1 web site installation]], although it says no more than has been said above.</div>Sfws
