We would like to request directory based publishing be added to the road map. Frequently, we only need to publish one directory from CM1, but currently our only options are to publish each page individually or run a full site publish. Both of these options take a lot of time. Publishing one directory at a time would be a big time saver.
I think this would be a very natural addition to the system, and would offer a nice balance between the current options of either running a full site publish or just individual page publishes. Thanks for sharing, Chris.
This use case will be handled via an enhancement we are currently working on for “incremental publishing”. Basically, what incremental publishing will do is republish only those pages that have been changed since the last publish. So to handle this scenario, you could modify and approve the pages in a given directory and run an incremental publish. Only those pages would be published.
