In this video I want to show
00:00
you two ways to create a Hyper
00:01
8 site then also how to move
00:02
these sites around on the disk if
00:05
you want to and finally how to
00:06
remove these sites from disk again
00:08
if you want to the first way
00:10
to create a hyper 8 site is
00:12
to just launch hyper 8 and then
00:13
in the interface you just pick create
00:15
new site and then it will exp
00:17
plain to you at which location
00:20
on your disk will create this empty site
00:22
folder in my case that is slash
00:24
home slash demo and there it will create
00:26
a folder called new dash hyper8 dash
00:29
site if you confirm that it creates this
00:31
folder and it opens it in the
00:33
editor we don't want to edit it
00:35
just now so we'll close it again
00:37
um the second way
00:39
to create a hyper 8 site
00:40
is to simply open a file explorer and then
00:42
you can basically just create an empty
00:45
folder and call it whatever you want
00:48
and as a next step you can
00:53
just again open hyper 8 and this
00:54
time open an existing site and you
00:58
just point it to the location to the folder
01:01
that you just created open that and again it
01:04
opens your new site in the editor
01:07
as you can see as promised
01:10
also the automatically created site is present
01:13
in our home directory and is also
01:15
just an empty folder so if
01:17
for any reason you are unhappy with
01:20
the location where your site directory is
01:21
you can just select a site or
01:23
multiple sites and just move them somewhere
01:25
else so in my case i will
01:27
just move them to the documents folder
01:29
and just the same you can also
01:32
rename this so for instance if you
01:33
would rather name your site directory "something"
01:35
you can do that and now the
01:39
last step if you again open hyper
01:40
8 you will see that it cannot
01:43
find the previously er the sites at their previous
01:45
locations so we can basically just remove
01:48
them here
01:51
and then we just re-add this to
01:53
the favorites if you will by again
01:55
using open existing site and this time
01:57
pointing it to documents something and then
01:59
again it opens this in the
02:03
editor and we can start building our
02:04
site for the last point how do we
02:06
remove sites that's very simple basically you
02:08
just find the
02:11
empty or not empty
02:13
site folder on your disk and you
02:15
just delete it
02:18
and that's that
02:20
