Hi, I would like to have support doing the following. I want to migrate to backlight + pages. Currently I am using CE4 (Gallery + pages). The CE4 Pages stuff is in my root directory. I have an own home page, that I want to keep; it loads with index.html. I want to continue CE4 until I have fully tested backlight. How do I organize the files/folders (especially in the root folder) in order to achieve this? Thanks!

you won't be able to run an index.html file alongside an index.php file. You'll need to develop your Backlight site in a sub-folder or sub-domain for development and then migrate things when you're done designing.
Sounds like you're not using Publisher?
See if this helps

Thanks Rod, for reaching out. I do use Publisher though. The only exceptional thing I do is having a homepage, not constructed with CE4 pages; the other pages of my site are created in Pages and are galleries. This works all fine. I hope I can run my site in Backlight in the same way......

As in documentation, the /backlight and /galleries folders go in your root, and the migration process should also go as documented.
If using the Pages Add-on, you should be able to put the index.php and .htaccess files elsewhere. I haven't messed much with this, though, so Ben will probably have to fill you in on the exact procedure for running pages from out-of-root, as that's more his wheelhouse than mine.
