Exporting a Project

activeCollab Corporate edition includes an optional module that enables you to export project information as a mini, static HTML website. Projects exported in this format do not require any web server to run (they can be opened with just a web browser) making them perfect for archiving projects.

Instal Project Exporter module

To install the Project Exporter module, go to the Administration > Modules page, and install it from the list of Available Modules:

Once the Project Exporter is installed, the Export Project option will be available under the Options drop-down menu on the Overview page of every project:

activeCollab also lets you pick which project data you would like to have exported:

Notes and Tips
  1. Before letting you export the data, activeCollab may ask you to create a /work/export folder on your server and set appropriate permissions so PHP can write to it.
  2. An option to prevent Project Exporter exporting private objects is also available. This feature is great for making archived copies of a project that you can burn to a CD and send to clients.
  3. Exported data is saved in /work/export folder.
