RoboHelp 7 - Conditional tags not working

Question

In my WebHelp there are several topics that have multiple drop down hot spots for text.  Some are marked as Do Not Publish, but when I copy my files over to Sharepoint they are now showing up again.  The only way I can get them to not show is to completely delete the drop down.  What am I doing wrong????

Hi thereI think we need to examine exactly what you are meaning when you say you "copy your files to SharePoint". Which files exactly are you copying?If you are copying the files from your project without first generating, this explains things perfectly. Some authors expect RoboHelp to behave similar to a web editor such as Dreamweaver. Where you simply edit and publish. RoboHelp is different. You have to generate in order to make the Build Tags and Expressions work to strip away the undesired bits. Then you publish the result.What you have described sounds as if you are bypassing the generation step.Cheers...
