= Folders and Files to Transfer just Once =
== Overview ==
Firstly, we need to get several files and folders onto your web space. The files and folders vary depending on flavour of Cumulus, and will be described in next 2 sections, but this section gives a steer on how you might get the folders and files onto the web server.
#This is a one time only exercise but is essential to the operation of your Cumulus website.
#Configure your [[FTP tool]] to connect to your web server.
#Once done, make your connection and change to the correct directory/folder on your site, as advised by your provider.
#You may wish to create a sub-folder to store your weather site, but for this purpose we will assume not.
Whether you are using Cumulus 1 or Cumulus MX, the first task is to copy everything (see next section for details of exactly what) in the:
*Cumulus 1: ''Cumulus\webfiles''
*Cumulus MX: ''CumulusMX\webfiles''
folder into where you want to store your web site pages, preserving the sub-folder structure.
