Web content items in the WebDAV tree

The WebDAV tree containing your Web content items begins at the WebDAV root /libraries/, which displays all libraries to which you have access. All Web content items within the libraries are organized with folders and files. Items that do not pertain to content, such as site areas or categories, are represented as folders that only contain the item's metadata folder and any child items like other site areas or categories. No data files are present.

sites
    - wcm.site.site1
        - meta-data                        
        - wcm.siteArea.siteArea1
              - meta-data
              - wcm.siteArea.siteArea1.1
                  - meta-data
              - wcm.siteArea.siteArea1.2
                  - meta-data
    - wcm.site.site2
        - meta-data
Data-oriented items like image components or presentation templates are represented as files so you can manipulate them with drag and drop operations. The corresponding metadata for the item is managed the same way as for the non-data items but in separate subfolders within the metadata folder.

wcm.comps.image
    image1.jpg
    image2.jpg
    - meta-data
          - wcm.comp.image1.jpg
          - wcm.comp.image2.jpg

In addition to folders that represent actual Web content items, there are folders in the WebDAV tree to structure the data or to allow for better scalability. For each library there are folders for components, presentation templates, sites, and taxonomies.

libraries
   - wcm.library.my_library
       - components
       - presentationTemplates
       - sites
       - taxonomies
   - wcm.library.contentlibrary
       - components
       - presentationTemplates
       - sites
       - taxonomies
Within the components folder there are subfolders for the component types for better scalability and management of the different types of components..

libraries
   - wcm.library.my_library
       - components
           - wcm.comps.data.and.time
           - wcm.comps.file
           - wcm.comps.html
           - wcm.comps.image
           - wcm.comps.link
           - wcm.comps.number
           - wcm.comps.richt.text
           - wcm.comps.short.text
           - wcm.comps.style.sheet
           - wcm.comps.text
