Running a job

1) Add your project folder to be cleaned. This can be done by three different ways. you can do one of the following:

Drop the folder directly onto the application icon.
Select it using the File:Open menu.
Drop the folder onto the sitelist window pane.

2) Run the job. When you drop a folder onto the application icon, SiteCleaner will start cleaning it immediately. If you add your site by way of the file menu or dropping it onto the window, The path and name of the folder will appear in the sitelist. To run a job, select it from the list with your mouse and double click start button on the bottom right corner of the window.

How it works

When you clean a site, SiteCleaner Creates a new folder inside your destination folder (as described below).

Depending on the build mode setting, this newly created folder will contain either a new copy of your site ready for delivery (the default setting), or all of the unsused content that was removed from your project.

• To leave your folder alone and build a new clean copy, use copy mode.
• To quickly gather up your unused files or clean out a project, use the move mode.

On some occasions you may wish to include files that you are not referencing from your website. You can set what types of files you wish to include regardless of wether they are being used or not by disabling them in the preferences panel:


With mp3 disabled, all of the mp3 files found in the project folder will be included in the final website that SiteCleaner creates.

Changing the destination folder

Create a folder somewhere on your disk (I prefer the desktop) and name it "Clean Websites" or something like that. Next go to the Preferences panel and set this new folder as your destination folder (the default is your Documents folder).
