Hi, I am new here.  
I work with RW 8.4.1 for Mac since a short time.  
I want to change folder or browser title in general settings/Meta Data.  
RW will name the folder e.g. like _page-47_. I would like to change e.g. into _links_.  
In the browser preview (firefox) the change will be shown correctly: URL/links. After upload no change: _page-47_ instead of _links_.  
Regards  
vobl

Welcome,

When you say uploading are you talking about publishing?

Did you publish the old way (page-47) before?

RapidWeaver will not delete the old folder page-47.

Have you cleared the browsers cache?

First I published the page-47.  
Than I tried to chang.  
I have cleared the browser cache several times with no result.  
This has happened with other uploads too.
