Renaming a Website?

Is there a simple way to rename and entire website project and place it in a new folder?
I searched, but I can't seem to find anything on that. I'd like to save the entire project and files under a different name.
Thanks for any pointers.

Click on File --> Save website As and give it a new name in the new location you want.

From what I found, that keeps the existing file structure under the old folder though and points back to it. Then new things get added to the new tree and I have a hybrid/mix of old tree and new that is unmanageable.
I need to be able to save it and have all the existing files get migrated there too, with new pathnames for the new development tree for that site.
This is the problem I ran into when I tried early on.

Make sure that in Tools --> Options --> Files and Folders --> Asset Management that you check the box for WB to manage images and other files used by the project. When you create a new folder and save your project, WB will create an images folder in that folder for the project.

Thanks, I'll make sure that's set and give it a try.
