Although topic map is very efficient data and knowledge storage format, it isn't very suitable for human eyes. Stylesheets and templates offer two slightly different methods to publish your topic map in more useful format.
Wandora supports template based topic map export. Export starts selecting File > Export > Export site. Before any file is exported you Wandora requests target directory and template files. Target directory defines local folder where all export files are stored. Export templates are Apache Velocity files you can edit or replace to polish the outlook of exported static site. You can also download subject locator files and resize subject locator image files.
After successful export the target folder contains a set of html files and a log file export.log and possibly files folder with all downloaded subject locator files. Each topic generates one html file. Number of html files matches the number of topics. All topic files are named topic<n>.html where <n> is a topic number. There exists two special html files: index.html and starthere.html. Index.html contains a link list of all topics. Starthere.html contains the topic that was currently open in topic panel. Below is a view to the export folder after base topic map export.
