[Pro] Rearranging order within Site Folder

If I drag-and-drop to rearrange the order of the ~300 pages in my Site Folder, will that “break” any of the links? Or will Freeway follow them seamlessly to their new (alphabetical) order?

And will my alphabetizing the order like this cause a full upload of the entire~300 pages the next time I upload? Or will it be just an entirely “in-house” change within Freeway that is of no interest to my web host? (I’m not changing any file names, nor am I adding folders or putting any pages into folders)

The order of the list in the left pane is completely meaningless, you can sort it to any order you find pleasing. The only case where this would cause any change in the published code is if you were using the Link to Page Action, which uses this page order to create a set of “next” and “previous” links. That Action already causes every page in your site (to which it is applied) to re-upload every time you publish, so you would be used to that behavior by now, I think.

Now if you create a folder, and drag some of the pages into that folder, that would definitely cause a widespread re-publish, because the URLs on any page-to-page links would have to be re-calculated to match the new site topology.
