IWeb wont post my site

I finished my website and try and publish it, and starts uploading then part way through it says error and stops uploading...is it because i am on dial up????

Very likely - I find that updating my site over a slow connection (public hotspot shared with a lot of people in a coffee shop) gives me the same problem.
How big is the site and how practical is it to actually upload over dial up ? Publish the site to a folder and determine its properties to find out how big it will be in practice.

How do I delete sites created with iWeb and posted with .mac after a format

I am confused about how to delete a couple of sites that I created with iWeb and posted with my .mac after I did a format reload?
I have tried everything. The original files are not on my MacBook Pro because of the format.
I also see them in my idisc, but I is my understanding that on my MacBook Pro that I can delete the files, but they are hosted online. On the online idisk I cannot delete them because there is no option. Please help!!!

Using the file menu in Finder:
Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/YourSitesAreHere
Highlight selected files and Command/Delete. You will receive a drop down asking you if you are sure; click OK and the files/sites will be deleted immediately from the iDisk.

Iweb wont launch in lion

Hi - any suggestions? iWeb wont open in Lion for some reason. It gives "one hop" in my tool bar, but I cant access any new pages nor any of my old sites created therein.
I also have other issues with my screensaver and Lion which I will post elsewhere. So far in my life, FIRST hiccupp with an Apple upgrade.
Any help appreciated.

In Lion the Finder folder is now invisible. To make it permanetely visible enter the following in the Terminal applicaiton window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Now that the library folder is visible
Try the following:
move the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home()/Library/Preferences folder to the Desktop.
go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and move its contents to the Desktop.
launch iWeb and try again.
If that doesn't help continue with:
move the domain file from your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder to the Desktop.
launch iWeb, create a new test site, save the new domain file and close iWeb.
go to the your Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and delete the new domain file.
move your original domain file from the Desktop to the iWeb folder.
launch iWeb and try again.

IWeb opens but my site won't

I am a Photographer and I use iWeb to publish online contact sheets for my clients. Basically for each job I complete I copy my existing domain.sites file to a new folder rename it add my content publish it to the web and I'm good to go.
Well for the site in question which is a rather large one 56 galleries each with over 40 photos that was nearly complete and I was trying to put the finishing touches on, I click to open it and iWeb opens but the site does not. iWeb is running I can open the inspector window the font window image adjust, and color windows just not the window with my site in it. Hmmmm any ideas anyone??
I can go back and create a new site from a different file and it opens fine. But this one site wont open? I've tried deleting the prefs in the User file, and deleting the Cache from the user file copying the file to another location, opening my backup copy. Also when I opened it to day for the first time I got the iWeb tutorial window.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Michael

Try deleting the prefs again - Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist
Restart your Mac and run Disk Utility to repair permissions.
If this doesn't work you need to consider the possibility that the domain file is corrupt.
When you say you are duplicating the domain file to another folder and adding content to that, are you deleting any content from this file as well as adding new?

IWeb won't Publish site when Podcast is added

I have two seperate sites on my iWeb account. I've tried publishing the first site with the new podcast I created. It worked fine. Then I tried publishing the second site with the podcast. EVERY time I get an error message that says it was unable to publish. I've gone as far as to export the GB3 podcast as a mono cast instead of a full quality movie. The size is about 15 MB. WHAT CAN I DO!?!
Is there a way to publish a podcast without using iWeb?
Why won't iWeb publish my podcast??
Thanks

Irish....
there are two possible solutions to fix this problem if I understand your problem correctly. you have two sites, with podcasts on both that you want published at the ITMS.
First... in the SITE ORGANIZER in iWeb. Drag the site you want published to the TOP of the SITE ORGANIZER WINDOW. You say you have two sites, iWeb treats the one at top as the master and publishes that one. I'm guessing that the one you want to publish, and are unable to, is in the lower position.
If you are submitting this new site to the ITMS for the first time, then choose the FILE MENU, then SUBMIT PODCAST TO ITUNES command. Follow the instructions like you did before and you should be good to go.
If you are submitting a new EPISODE OF AN EXISTING PODCAST (think second podcast episode, or new chapter in a book) then you take care of it this way. This is a post I gave to someone in the podcasting forum to help them with a second podcast they were trying to submit to itunes.
Publish your site to .Mac (or your server if it's different)... then PING itunes to let them know to go look for new content on your server (or .Mac). You PING iTunes by cutting and pasting the url addy below into safari and clicking return. You'll get an error message, don't worry, it's supposed to happen. About an hour later, maybe a bit longer, your new episode will be available.
DONT submit your podcast by selecting the "SUBMIT PODCAST TO ITUNES" menu selection again. That command is for your first submission, not your subsequent ones. Think of your podcast as a book. And each episode is a chapter. When you ping iTunes, they go get the whereabouts of the new chapter and make it available for the world to come and read, hear, or watch.
the PING url is...
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?id=INSERTYOURFE EDIDHERE
Your feed ID number is in your original email from the itunes folks when they sent you your acceptance email and said that your podcast was now up and running on the ITMS.
Hope this helps.

WebGallery or iWeb to post photos?

Hi,
I know that I can use either WebGallery or iWeb to post photos and albums for friends & family to see on the Internet.
Can someone please briefly outline what are the specific advantages and disadvantages of either option. Is one superior to the other?
Thank you very much

Dimitrois:
IMO using iPhoto and creating a Web Gallery is a much easier and quicker way to get your photos published and viewed. You have the option of uploading full sized image files so the viewers can download them for printing. There's also an option to let others add photos to the gallery by emailing them. The display options are better with iPhoto. There's the grid, all thumbnails in a grid, mosiac, the thumbnails down the right side the the currently selected photo one the right in viewing size, the carousel, somewhat like iTunes' album viewing method and the slideshow.
iWeb lets you present any number of themes, add comments and lots of bells and whistles to a page. Viewing is limited to a grid of thumbnails, which when clicked will display the 800 x 600 image, and the slideshow, similar to the one in a web gallery. But you can add other pages with discussions, links to other sites, etc.
It's your call as to which to use.
Do you Twango?
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Is it necessary to add? If so, how do I add H Tags to iweb.

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Are they necessary to add? Why would one add these tags and how do I add H Tags to iweb? And are there examples to look at? I am slowly learning about simple web design and assumed that iweb was stand alone without having to write code. Is this one of the reasons iweb is no longer supported? Thanks for looking at this!

A simple text page like this:
Heading
    sub heading
          text paragraph ....
Is traditionally represented by html tags like:
<h1>Heading</h1>
     <h2>sub heading</h2>
          <p>text paragraph ... </p>
I would guess that the use of h1-h6 tags helps search engines to understand the structure of a page as the tags imply a certain structure.
This can be compared to more generic tags like <div> that could represent any kind of content - and may be what iWeb uses (you'll have to check yourself).
I would generally recommend that you use some kind of up to date blog/site building tool, perhaps Wordpress or Squarespace (I haven't used either one myself) that support current web technologies - this should reduce your SEO issues and make it easier to properly support mobile/tablet users.

IWeb 3.0.4 Site Doesn't Work in Mountain Lion

I am running iWeb 3.0.4 on OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion). When I open iWeb and select a site (which uses the black theme), all I see is a blank gray box where the page used to appear. The YouTube videos I put on the page are there, but none of the text and background shows. I went to the Theme menu to try and re-apply the theme, but it is grayed out in the list and nothing changes in the box when I select a different theme.
Is this a permissions issue or something else happening? I have looked for a com.apple.iweb.plist file in my Library > Application Support folder but nothing is there. I really need to access this site to make updates and/or to port it to another software package that is supported.
Any idease are welcome. Thank you for your help.

You were looking the wrong library. The library you want is invisible in Lion and Mt Lion. However the following will let you make it visible again:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Once it's visible use the app below to select and open the domain file to work on:
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

When I opened iweb it opened as a file I deleated. I have a published website with godaddy and would like to update. How can I open the existing iWeb app to the site that is already published?

You cannot retrieve the already published site as iWeb CANNOT open it - it has no import facility.
You need your domain.sites file, which you can find under User/Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites. You do not need any kind of account for this because it is your domain.sites file that resides on the hard drive of your Mac anyway. Find this file and you can alter your website.
Use a spotlight search to try and find it and if this does not work you can download something called Find Any File. If you really can't find it, then you'll have to start from scratch because iWeb cannot open a site that is already published.

Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site?

Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site? I designed it, hit "publish" and it went to now-defunct Mobile Me...

I do believe you can publish your website to a folder.
I think (it's been a while since I have used the older version) in the File menu you should have an option to publish site to a folder.
Then you will need to use an FTP application like Cyberduck to upload files to your web host.

IWeb Not Finding My Site After Re-Install

Hi guys,
I've had to re-install OSX on my Macbook. I backed up my iWeb website before I did this and put it back where I found it.
When I open iWeb now it just prompts me to start a new site.
How do I get the old iweb site back into iweb??
Thanks
Steve

So even though I backed up all the html files, pictures etc of the site I created in iWeb, they're now useless to me because I didn't back up this one file?
There's no way to get iWeb to recognise the site it created anymore?
That seems crazy! I used iWeb to keep my life simple but I think I'm better sticking to manual webpage creation in future.

I delete "Cache.db" in Library/Cache/com.apple.iWeb ; "com.apple.iWeb.plist" in Library/Preferences.
iWeb publishing don't change.
With Time Machine, I restaure an older version of Domain all in "blue". When I want publish one modification, all the sites turn red.
I chat with french MobileMe support. They say it's a iWeb issue.
I delete iWeb. I install it and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I re-install Mac OS Snow Leopard and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I use iWeb since the first version, and I like it. I have many published pages.
No news from MobileMe. Distressing situation, isn't it ?

In trying to transfer iWeb pages (not uploaded) to another computer I went into the Library and transferred the domain onto the desktop. Disaster! On opening iWeb all previous (uploaded) sites have disappeared. On opening the domain all I can recover is the many component parts, and when unzipped the code. Help! Mike

Code in a domain file - really? That is not possible because the domain.sites file does not contain any html or css code at all - the domain file is your iWeb data file and you won't see any code until you publish your website.
If you can see html code, then you have the wrong file and it is a published version of your site which iWeb can do nothing with - iWeb has no import facility so cannot open any html files.
Go back and ensure that you have the correct domain.sites files that can be found under your User Library/Application Support/iWeb/domain.sites and if you have Mavericks then you need to go to Go and press the alt key to reveal your hidden User Library, so that you can then get to Application Support and then iWeb and then your domain.sites file.
You will also need to go and download either DomainCracker or iWebSwitch which allows you to open individual domain files under Mavericks, because from Lion onwards, you cannot open individual domain files.
Also, it says that you are still using iWeb 08? If this is so, you'll either need to upgrade to iWeb 09 by going to Amazon and purchasing the iLife 09 or 11 boxed set, both of which contain iWeb 09 or you need to switch to newer software that is actively being supported and developed such as EverWeb (http://www.everwebapp.com).

What URL for E-recruiting page to use from external job posting web site

Hello,
What is the standard SAP entrance back to E-recruiting from an external job posting site? We have sent our job postings to an external web site vender (Monster) to be posted for candidates to review. On the review page at Monster is the Apply Now button for a particular job. When the candidate clicks the Apply Now button, we would like the job detail to show within E-recruiting for the reference code of the job posted. Otherwise, the candidate has to repeat the job search within E-recruiting to get to the referenced details. Currently, we have a custom enhancement to populate the reference code (parsing it from the URL) to the Job Search page so at least the candidate can click one more time on the search button and the details display. Is there a standard page or better way to get to the job details in E-recruiting without custom enhancements coming from the external job posting web site?
Using BSP and non-XI platform
ECC 5.0 E-recruiting version
Please advise,
Cindy

Hello Cindy,
this is not very difficult and completly possible within the standard application functions. As you show all position data already in the page of the job board (like Monster) you use a link which dirctly referes the applicant to the page where he enters name and mail-address to apply for the job (if he like to see the postion instance again this page do includes a link to the data overview).
The link you use is the same link used in the "request for application" correspondence with which you can request a candidate youidentified in your talent pool to apply for a position.
The link should be available directly if you use the XI integration scenario but can be created very easily. Only 2 things to know:
- do you use the standard posting channel ID 0002 for external postings or have you confiqured a custom posting channel for posting at monster
- how do you get the job information to the monster guys. As you wrote you do not use the XI integration, so have you created a customer own publisher to dump all information to a share where monster is reading it automatically or do you maintain the publications by hand?
If you could give me this information i'll post the easiest way to get the link.
Best Regards
Roman Weise

Iweb keeps publishing all sites

I am using iweb 1.1.1 I have made a new site but everytime I publish..from "edit"
publish site, iweb publishes all the sites on my list. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks, Dana

Dana:
First this is the iWeb 2 forum and you'll probably get users there who are more familiar with iWeb 1 responding.
However, are you publishing to MobileMe or to a folder? If you're publishing to a folder then that's normal. I've not used iWeb 1 for quite a while but don't remember it publishing all sites unless there was a change in all of them.
I believe iWebSites works with iWeb 1 and maybe you should take a look at it. I use iWebSites to manage multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want. It may be what you're looking for.
