PHPRunner General questions

Hello,
I'm using HelpNDoc application to create help documentation. It generates html static files in a folder that we choose.
Is there a way to include these files in output folder when we build the project?
I'm refreshing the documentation frequently, so one time Import in "Custom files" is maybe not the best idea, because I will forget to Import the folder everytime.
I have tried to create a folder "help" in "files" in the Project folder, and instruct the HelpNDoc app to generate his files there. But it doesn't work.

You need to explain what exactly didn't work.

Maybe this could help you
https://xlinesoft.com/phprunner/docs/how_to_add_external_files.htm

If you copy the folder "help" inside the source folder, everytime you generate the project and upload to your website will upload that folder in the root of your project.

Just a suggestion which I use

I set up a separate wordpress site with the help documentation and then have a simple static link in the menu to the wordpress site...
My wordpress help documenation is on a completely separate host.. I can do separate backups and edit etc indpendently of PHPRunner application design

Works for me possibly too simple for yourself

I also try and write it generically so multiple tenants can be referenced to the same wordpress site alhough I can make it specific to the tenant if needs be.

Maybe this could be fixed outside PHPRunner by using a free synchronization software tool like this - it supports syncronization between local and ftp folders and you can do that for your documentation.
Or this
