The [Tor website](https://www.torproject.org) is hosted at several
computers for redundancy, and these computers are together called "the
www rotation". The www rotation serves a variety of other websites
too, like extra.tp.o, dist.tp.o, and more.

How do you edit one of these websites? Let's say you want to edit {{extra}}.

* Then you make your edits as desired to
  {{{/srv/extra-master.torproject.org/htdocs/}}}
  `/srv/extra-master.torproject.org/htdocs/`

* When you're ready, you run this command to sync your changes to the
  www rotation:

  {{{
        sudo -u mirroradm static-update-component extra.torproject.org
}}}

Example: You want to copy image.png from your Desktop to your blog

post indexed as `2017-01-01-new-blog-post`:

{{{
    scp /home/user/Desktop/image.png staticiforme.torproject.org:/srv/extra-master.torproject.org/htdocs/blog/2017-01-01-new-blog-post/
    ssh staticiforme.torproject.org sudo -u mirroradm static-update-component extra.torproject.org
}}}

The complete list of websites served by the www rotation is not easy
to figure out, because we move some of the static sites around from
time to time. But you can learn which websites are considered "static",
i.e. you can use the above steps to edit them, via:

{{{
    ssh staticiforme cat /etc/static-components.conf
}}}
