You are importing the structure, and once done, it is rendered obsolete. You&nbsp;could then delete everything on the hard-drive and have everyone work only with the (identical) structure in Alfresco using WebDAV or other means.</P></BODY></HTML> Mon, 06 Aug 2018 07:26:29 GMT https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-forum/is-it-possible-to-configure-alfresco-to-use-exact-folder-as-site/m-p/45598#M18324 afaust 2018-08-06T07:26:29Z Re: Is it possible to configure alfresco to use exact folder as site document library? https://connect.hyland.com/t5/alfresco-forum/is-it-possible-to-configure-alfresco-to-use-exact-folder-as-site/m-p/45599#M18325 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Axel, thank You very much for replies, they were extremely useful.</P><P>I still have the same problem.
