IWeb blog entry with an earlier date than today?

Is there a way to create an entry in iWeb that has a date before today's date? Say I want to create an entry of something that happened five days ago... When I create an entry, it automatically sets the date to today. Is there any way to change the date backwards for the entry?

Possibly not. When you highlight and erase it, it doesn't help you make a new one, but the font size and color settings remain. I just re-wrote the dates I wanted in the same way they had already been written (day, month, date, year).
Example on my non-profit site, all the journal entries were entered on the same day (Jan 25), but I changed the dates on them to reflect when they were actually written by the author. See under "Journal" page in this site linked here: http://www.catalinafoundation.org

My iphone has synced with a later date than photos taken and now cant get resent photos back?

my iphone has synced with a later date than photos taken and now cant get photos recently taken same with messages :-(

iDevices do not sync with a date... they sync with the computer.
If the user has restored the device using an older backup, simply restore it with a more current backup.

Please help with creating more diverse iweb blog entries

I have a blog about sports memorabilia that I use iweb for: http://www.hoopography.com. I have come to a road block in creating blog entries. I have two issues:
1.) I would like to include more than one image for each blog. I tried to just add images and wrap text around when I create the entry in iWeb, but the images do not show up on the homepage where the blog section is located. I'm assuming I need more than one "place holder", but I have not been able to add more than one. Here is an example of another blog that has multiple images for one entry. Essentially, what I am trying to accomplish: http://offysports.blogspot.com/
2.) I would like to add YouTube videos so that they not only appear in the individual entry, but also on the homepage where the blog section is located (Otherwise, visitors to the site need to click on the entry to even realize the image is a video. I would like readers to be able to play it right on the homepage.). I have tried to use the "YouTube Widget" to add the videos when working on the entry in iWeb, but the video appears as a still image on the homepage's blog section.
I have some knowledge of iWeb and Macs. I have been using a Mac and iWeb to work on this blog for about 6 months now, but these 2 problems have stumped and constrained me and the blog. Please help!!!!!! Thanks You.

I tuned the Place holder into a YouTube Video Widget, and it does display on the homepage, but it does not display as a video. It displays as a still image that the reader has to click on to access the entry and then play the video in the entry instead of playing right on the homepage.
For the multiple images, are you saying that I can only have one placeholder? I do not follow. I want multiple placeholders for multiple images throughout the single entry (ex: http://offysports.blogspot.com/2010/05/2009-10-panini-studio-basketball.html)
Thanks

Retreiving lost blog entry with Time Machine

I was working with a new blog entry, when iWeb suddenly quit unexpectedly. I've never been good at hitting the save button, so all my work was lost.
I do run backup with TM, so thought there might be a slim chance that all was good, but alas...
I find the Domain.sites2 file in TM, but when I hit restore this does not change anything! It does not matter which date I try to restore from... iWeb still looks exactly as I left it last. So there must be something I'm doing wrong. Can anyone enlighten me?
Tnks!!

to restore a file (or folder) with TM you launch TM and go back to the time you want, select the item (iPhoto library in this case) and click restore

In iWeb, blog entries are not appearing

in iWeb, am entering blog entries which are appearing in the blog archive but showing up as an entry for people to see. Any suggestions?

Do you mean 'appearing in the blog archive but not showing up as an entry for people to see' ?
By default iWeb limits the number of entries in a blog feed to 5; it then moves older episodes to the archive page (and out of the feed) as new entries are made. You can increase this number to 50 in the RSS section of the Inspector.
New entries should not be appearing in the Archive, though if you were giving them older dates then they presumably would.
Posting the URL of your blog might aid in finding a solution.

Can I add blog entries with my ipad??

I started a blog in iWeb on my macbook and then wondered if I could add entries with my iPad and iPhone since I'm not going to be traveling with my macbook. Trying to do a travel journal via this method.

If you use Wordpress as Koeklin suggests you can embed that blog into an iWeb page as shown in this demo page: Embed a Site Within an iWeb Page. That way visitors don't need to leave your site to see your blog and you can add to it from your mobile device(s).

My iWeb Blog entries are not showing on MobileMe. Help!

When I click on the link from the Blog Summaries to one one my Blog Entries I get a 'Not Found' page - all published to MobileMe with the latest iWeb. These llinks have always worked before. The problem has been apparent for two days now. What can or will be done to correct this?

Does your blog have comments by visitors? If not you can move your blog to a new server and only lose the ability to search the blog. But if you have visitor comments included in your blog you will lose those comments when moving to a new server.
If you do have visitor comments post back and I'll give links to a method that can be used to convert your blog w/comments to a WordPress blog.

Removing some pages/files/archived blog entries with in a website

I noticed on my iDisk there are pages/files/old blog entries that I had removed from my iWeb (on my computer, saved and then published to .Mac). I am getting close to running out of room on my .Mac/iDisk account that is why I saw that there were old pages still on the iDisk/.Mac that I thought I had removed. How do I completely remove these pages/files/old blog entries I no longer need or want?

Hi Peter...
Not sure what is going on here... but I do notice a mistake in the RSS.xml feed URL. When you publish to folder in iWeb, be sure to enter in the domain name of our site. Now in your case, you are uploading to a subdirectory "iwebrats", so you need to include that as well. So in the URL field box in the Publish to Folder window, you should be entering: http://www.petermaher.com/iwebrats/ This will ensure that iWeb generates a valid RSS/podcast feed URL for your site.
Now on to your blog errors....it's behaving like you didn't upload the blog entry at all. When you do a publish to folder, iWeb will lay down two things inside this folder.... an index.html page and a folder (named after your site and containing a bunch of files associated with it). These are the two things that you should be uploading to your "iwebrats" subdirectory. You need to upload both items WITHOUT the enclosing folder. So when you look at your "iwebrats" subdirectory in your FTP program, you should see the index.html program and your sitefolder. Don't take anything out of the sitefolder...just upload it as is. Upload the two items as is, keeping the index.html file outside the site folder.
Go back and double check your uploading. Maybe re-FTP things. I think you will see that your site will work.

IWeb Blog Entries - search, keywords, and categories?

Hi all
I've been looking around these forums and elsewhere for help on this, but not having much luck...
I'm wanting to put a search box on to my iWeb site. I am not a MobileMe customer and therefore realise the default search field in iWeb will not work. Does anyone know of one/a way that will allow me to:
- Search blog entries
- Add keywords to blog entries created in iWeb
- View blog entries that have been assigned to a particular category (e.g. A 'holidays' topic would show all the entries with the holiday keyword, the 'work' topic would show all entries with work...etc.)
All of this would need to be integrated in to my site, and ideally not be done on a 3rd-party site.
Any help would really be appreciated. Like I said, I am not a MobileMe user and would be publishing the site on my own webspace.
Hope someone out there can help!
Thanks, and happy holidays!

Web Based iWeb Blog Entries?

I just came across an instance where it would have been handy to add blog entries to my page created in iWeb, from a computer that does not have iWeb loaded. As far as I know there is no way to make blog entry additions like you can in the more conventional web-based blog applications (Myspace, Blogspot etc...).
I am pretty sure I have run all the traps on this one, but does anyone know if an option to allow this is available, or is in the works?
It would be great to be able to travel and make additions to my blog at any computer kiosk.

No, that's not the problem. I am talking about adding a blog entry from a kiosk type connection, not your mac connected to the internet.
It sounds like you ae having a problem publishing to iDisk. This can happen with complex network connections (wireless, routers, switches, and firewalls at hotels).

Date.getTime() with very early Dates

Hi,
I has a problem with Date.getTime(). If I want the milliseconds from an very early date (like 01.01.1970 00:01:00) I get an negative value from Date.getTime() (in this case -354000). I need this because I want to add a short time (not really date) to a date.
I has played with different Timezone settings but this doesnt help.
Has anyone an idea?
Thank you.
Bye

Hmmm, I spotted that there was something wierd like this a few days ago. Consider the following:
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Test {
    public static void main(String[] argv)
            throws Exception {
        String dateFormat = "dd.MM.yyyy HH:mm:ss";
        String dateString = "01.01.1970 00:00:00";
        DateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat(dateFormat);
        Date date = df.parse(dateString);
        System.out.println(date);
        System.out.println(DateFormat.getDateTimeInstance(DateFormat.LONG, DateFormat.LONG).format(date));
        System.out.println(date.getTime());
        System.out.println();
        Calendar cal = new GregorianCalendar(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
        cal.setTime(date);
        System.out.println(cal.getTime());
        System.out.println(cal.getTimeInMillis());
        System.out.println();
        Date date2 = new Date(0);
        System.out.println(date2);
        System.out.println(date2.getTime());
}The output is:
Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT 1970
01 January 1970 00:00:00 GMT
-3600000
Thu Jan 01 00:00:00 GMT 1970
-3600000
Thu Jan 01 01:00:00 GMT 1970
0I get the same results using both IBM and Sun JVMs.
Any ideas?

Updating old iWeb blog/sites with new templates?

i would absolutely love to use the new iWeb templates, but don't want to have to start a whole new series of sites or a new blog just to do it.
is there any way to update my blog and sites created before iWeb 1.1 with the new templates? or is this just asking too much?
1.43 GHZ G4 mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

I don't think there's an automatic way to do this (like in Keynote) and it's really too bad. Actually, in Keynote when you change themes, you basically have to go over each slide and tweak it anyway.
With iWeb, I guess you could create a parallel blog (keep it invisible to your viewers while you are transitioning) and start recreating things. You basically have the ability to "select all" on a page and copy and paste everything as a block to a new page. Maybe that will cut down on the amount of work required.

Iweb blog entry names?

On website address shows numbers not a blog entry title anyone knows how to resolve it? Tried to delete spaces between the words but it didn't helped me?

i don't blog on the website i have, but one way to do this is to upload everything.
Alternatively, you could see what is different from what is on the FTP server and upload that.
Good luck!

Blog won't publish entries with November 2010 dates

I started a blog and website about 10 days ago and haven't had any trouble publishing blog posts in the month of November. Starting yesterday and continuing to today, I can't publish entries dated in November, even with the current day. Once I change the date to October, the entry publishes without issue. Has this happened to anyone else? I have plenty of space left.

This somehow resolved itself a few days into November.

With german iweb blog entries has "einträge".

Most Servers don't like european letters like "ä".
So it is not possible to use iWeb with Blogs in the german version.
Is there a solution?

Is there a solution?
Sometimes this problem can be solved by using the ftp app Cyberduck (set to UTF-8) to upload your site instead of whatever ftp app you have been using. That might be worth a try.
If you search this forum for "einträge" (set the search for "all" and not just 90 days) you will find some other discussions of this problem.
