How to publish a static web site to SharePoint - sharepoint

My CI pipeline generates a static HTML website via Asciidoctor. I would like to upload it to SharePoint (Office 365 edition) to be served as content rather that stored document and to be indexed for searches.
I'm completely new to SharePoint but following some tutorials, I created a SharePoint publishing site and uploaded my page to it. However, the page is just stored as a document rather than being rendered.
I also found few articles pointing to "SharePoint web pack" but nothing specific on how to use and what they do.
Any pointers or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Copy template from one SharePoint site to another

Thanks in advance for your insights.
I created a Template page in one SharePoint site. Now I need to copy that Template page to another SharePoint site. I was expecting this to be very simple, but have not found a viable solution yet.
Here is my Template page...
https://my_url.sharepoint.com/sites/mysite_365/SitePages/Templates/Documentation-Template.aspx
This is where I need to copy it to...
https://my_url.sharepoint.com/sites/my_other_site/SitePages/Templates
NOTE:
My version of SharePoint is SharePoint Online.
I created Documentation-Template.aspx as part of an Office 365 group site. Not sure if that might make a difference.
Thanks again!
Under the modern experience, you can only copy a site page to the same Site Pages library in the same site. You could vote on this idea in uservoice:

As a workaround, you could switch to classic experience. Then copy a site page to another site with the URL path to the other site's Site Pages library. Like this:
This still doesn't seem to be an option.
Here's a flow I made to accomplish this
Manually trigger a flow and ask for SourceSiteURL, PageName, DestinationURL and FailAction
Init Integer variable for FailAction
Switch to set fail action from input to Integer
Copy file in SharePoint from sourceURL/SitePages/PageName to DestinationURL/SitePages/PageName

How to export/move a Sharepoint 2013 site

After building a protoype Sharepoint site for the client I am now looking to export it for the client's eyes.
I'm looking for the best solution for exporting, sharing or moving a Sharepoint 2013 site for the client to see on their server. The site is currently only on one server so no server farms are involved.
The site is built using Sharepoint 2013.
I've been running through this guide, but could anyopne clarify if this process creates a back-up of the entire site or just the database: http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee428301(v=office.15).aspx
Any help would be greatly appreciated - Thanks!
There is a great video on how to do a backup and restore in SP10.
This does work for SP13 except the backup needs to be done with PowerShell.
How Do I: Backup and Restore a SharePoint 2010 Site Collection?
The backup and restore is not guaranteed to give you the exact result as some features could be activated and some CSS could change the look of the imported site.

Using web service to update a SharePoint 2010 list from a form located on a public web page?

I've been searching for information on how to do this but haven't found exactly what I'm looking for after a few hours on Google.
I have a form on a public website (old asp unfortunately) that when filled out and submitted, must update a list on a SharePoint 2010 site.
I know that the answer should be in a "lists.asmx" web service, but I'm having a hard time finding a web tutorial on setting this up.
If anyone has any advice it would be much appreciated.
I am trying to do something similar, and i found this blog post quite useful.

SharePoint - Web part to view remote list

Which web part and how to configure it to view a list from a different site collection?
Please note that I do not want to view a page but a list. For example view Announcements from a different team site under a seperate site collection.
Thank you in advance for your help.
The Data Form web part available through SharePoint designer can do this.
The Content Query Web Part (CQWP) which is part of the publishing infrastructure (requires MOSS) does not go across site collections.
Re http://www.spelements.com/spanylistview/
The problem with this one is you have to be able to INSTALL it on the server.
If you do not have those permissions, it cannot be used.
Don't bother asking if they can be obtained. They can't.

MOSS 2007 Wiki Export to MS Word or PDF

I've started using MOSS 2007's wiki feature for storing the ongoing technical documentation related to a project I'm working on, and it occurred to me after I started writing a few pages that there's no easy way to export out all of the pages into one document.
For those of you familiar with MOSS 2007, any ideas how this might be accomplished?
In the past I've created a site feature that exports SharePoint content to PDF and HTML but that was for publishing sites. I assume it needs some rewriting to make it working with the Wiki.
It basically iterates through the navigation of a site and all it's sub sites and reads all the pages stored in the "pages" document library. For each page it then extracts the content using XSLT.
Let me know whether I shall make the source somewhere available.
Cheers,
Michael
You should be able to create a view that shows the content for all of the wiki articles. It's not pretty; you'll get one really long web page. I don't have sharepoint up and running right now to tell you the exact steps, but I have done it before.
BlueRidge has an extension that allows you to export to PDF, but at 640+ euro it's a tad pricey.
You could copy/paste your content into your desired document. It's not convenient but it is a potential work around.
I am also after a solution for this. We have a multilevel Wiki content that follows a levelling structures. Can we automatically export the MOSS Wiki content to a more structured database such as Excel, Access, or XML?
