Using Web Author with Your WebDAV Server
Oxygen XML Web Author includes a WebDAV Connector plugin that enables you to access files stored on your WebDAV-enabled server. To access these files, it is assumed that the WebDAV Connector plugin is enabled and configured in your installation of Oxygen XML Web Author.
Opening or Creating Files
To open a file stored on a WebDAV server or create a new file, go to the main Dashboard, click the WebDAV tab, select the server URL, and log in. To create a new document, click on New in the top-right corner. To open an existing document, browse for the file and double-click it (or tap on a mobile device). If you need to change the server URL, click the Edit button.
Unlocking a File Stored on a WebDAV Connection
When opening files on a WebDAV server, by default the files are automatically locked to prevent anyone using another connection to that WebDAV server from changing the file. There is an option that can be disabled by a system administrator to change this behavior.
- Go to the Administration Page.
- Select Plugins.
- Click the Configure icon for the WebDAV plugin.
- Deselect the Lock resources on open option.
