Muse with Business Catalyst vs GoDaddy

My client would like to make edits on his own to his website I built for him in Muse. I currently host his site the their emails via GoDaddy. I also have two Wordpress blogs wrapped into the same hosting package. That being said, I really don't want to move my hosting from GoDaddy to Business Catalyst. Is there a way to sign up for a Business Catalyst hosting account and have GoDaddy point the website to the Catalyst servers so my client could make updates? I know we'd have to pay for a Catalyst account AND GoDaddy, but that might be not a bad deal depending on the situation. Looking for guidance.
Thanks!

Yes, you can just point the web traffic to BC through the A-record.
The blogs will then stop working and will have to be setup as subdomains.

I have a problem connecting Muse with business catalyst. When I start the publication is presented with the following message: Timeout when accessing with Adobe ID. Check your network connection and try again. But the connection is working properly.

Hi Federico,
Please go to Edit > Preferences in Muse and make sure the "Publish with Account" has the creative cloud subscription Adobe ID.

Integrating newsletter submission form into adobe muse (with business catalyst hosting)

Hi,
I have seen some posts on this question but i don't quite understand how i should go about this. I have created a form, for my newsletter, in muse which fits the style of my website, i would like to use this form to automate a response when someone signs up to it. Will the visitors details be stored on the business catalyst CRM database? Any help would be appreciated.
Lewis

Hello Lewis,
Visitors details will be stored on Business catalyst. I found a video, that shows how you can add the BC modeules in Muse, and customize it, it is using News section for example, this will give you an idea, how you can do this for Newsletter
Please let me know if you have any other query.

BC does not give that message - Would be good to see if it is indeed BC.

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites?

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites? This is so I can keep my free ones for personal projects but also so they can pay for their own hosting. I am happy to set it all up for them but not sure what to do.

Hi
You can use their BC login details and use them , which on publish the site will be under their account.
Please change the BC login from Edit > Preferences > Publish > Switch Accounts , for Mac it would Adobe Muse > Preferences

Taking a Muse site live with Business Catalyst

I have a complete Student and Teacher creative cloud subscription through my school (I am a student). And I have designed a website in Muse. I would like to take it live via Business Catalyst, but when I click "Launch Site," I get a window that says, "To launch this site you should upgrade to a paid Adobe Creative Cloud Membership which includes hosting for 5 sites with Adobe Business Catalyst." Then it directs me to the purchase page. But I already have a cloud membership. What's happening? Can anyone help me out?

Hi,
Creative cloud individual subscription allow you to host 5 free sites with Business catalyst. As you are using Student edition, your product does not qualify for free sites. To push your site live, you must pay for it.
Do let me know if you have any question.

Help with Business Catalyst Web forms and Adobe Muse.

I created a websform to log into a secure zone using business catalyst. I pasted the webform's html into Adobe Muse. After publishing my site. The websform I created in business catalyst is deleted, but I can see all of the forms that I created using Muse in the webform section. Is there a fix for this problem? Thanks
This is the page with the forms. http://www.highestgoodclothing.com/login.html

There is a workaround. It takes a little more work, but it is definitely worth it and will solve your problem. I subscribed and learned from tutorials on the www(.)trainsimple(.)com. They have a video series called "Muse CC Business Catalyst Integration" which was very helpful. The issue that everyone on here is referring to is covered in the 3 videos labelled, "Email Sign Up Checkbox", "Moving Muse Webforms to Business Catalyst" and "Email Marketing".
Essentially, what you want to do is create a form in Business Catalyst, turn that form into a module, assign a tag to that module, then put the tag into Muse using Object > Insert HTML. This will solve Muse deleting the web forms everytime.

Unable to test my muse website with business catalyst .

Hello,
I am currently in trial of creatives-corner. I have developed an website with muse and trying to test it with business catalyst. But whenever i try to publish it is shows the following error.
Error:
Error uploading file slideshow1.png. There was no response from the server. Check your network connection, and try again. If this problem persists, try again later.
Please help.
Thanks

Hi
This can be due few reasons :
- If you have placed the asset in remote/network/external source then this can be the cause, try to save the asset on local drive and then try.
- It can be a connection issue from your end, check the settings and re-publish.
- I see BC is going on with some updates/maintenance on their servers , so this may be related to that.

Please try again to publish.
Thanks,

I am having problems connecting Muse to Business Catalyst. When I try to publish, I get a message saying its timed out trying to connect with my Adobe ID -- and to check network connections. All my connections are fine ... Muse is connected to my Adobe

I was able to publish my site from Muse to Business Catalyst two days ago, but yesterday and today it is timing out when trying to connect to Business Catalyst. What should I do?

Hello,
Please sign out of Muse and Sign In again. Also Make sure Creative cloud application is up to date ( to check that sign out of creative cloud and sign in again if its not up to date you will be prompted to install the update)
To sign out of muse click on Help > Sign Out
If the issue is still not fixed then please rename the "OOBE" folder to "OOBE.old" from the following locations
MAC : (This folder can be found at Finder > Go > Go to Folder> Type ~/library/application support/Adobe > Hit return)
Widows : ( This folder can be found at C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Adobe )
Please let me know in case the issue still persist

Help with business catalyst with muse for a client's website

I created a site for a client using creative cloud muse, she got a business analyst account and added me as a user, but i am not able to upload the site straight from muse using publish .. what am i doing wrong?

If I host with Business Catalyst, will search engines fine me any "better" or Worse than go daddy?

If I host with Business Catalyst, will search engines fine me any "better" or Worse than go daddy?
I am new to Muse and love it! Not sure if the hosting site matters one way or the other.

Liam has some great points. Some other things to consider is that google (just talking one search engine at the moment) more than likely know what a BC site looks like and is made of and would know the best ways to index it assuming you use some of the features of BC and not just straight up HTML.
Godaddy is straight up HTML so as far as indexing goes I think BC has an advantage as it is a known system much like wordpress.
As far as IP blocks, bad neighbours, etc only google will know that information and it's not easy to say which is better.
For example if someone on BC spam's there website everywhere or engages in dodgy SEO practises, spambots etc. Their site is going to be pushed down, if you happen to be on the same IP or close to that site you will be in a "bad neighbourhood" and it may affect your site in the short term. This is the case for ANY hosting solution, so take it all with a gain of salt.

How do I link my Creative Cloud account with Business Catalyst Web Hosting service?

Hello,
I'm having difficulty understanding how to access the Business Catalyst service. I have attempted to log in directly to businesscatalyst.com/admin but continue to receive an error login message stating that my username and password are not recognized. I was not able to create a new business catalyst website via Dreamweaver either, despite having successfully logged into my Adobe Cloud account.
The only way I was able to set-up a website for use with Business Catalyst was by logging in via http://www.adobe.com/products/business-catalyst.html, and pressing the "try now" button, which allowed me to create a demo site. This also allowed me to log into BC, but when I attempted to upgrade the site from a trial to the webbasic service, I am asked for a payment method.
I understand that the creative cloud service includes basic web hosting for up to 5 sites and should work seamlessly with DW or Muse, or using the InContext editing options provided via browser, but I am unable to truly access any of this content. Am I doing something wrong here?
Thank you

Please approach our support and supply them with your Adobe ID and the site URL you want to take live and they will do this for you in couple of minutes.
Cheers,

How do I connect with Business Catalyst through my CC account

I have a CC account. How do I access Business Catalyst to use the free web basic sites that come with the plan?

You need to create site and publish from DW/Muse on Business Catalyst, the sites would be published as trial sites. Then you can login to site admin and push the site live.

Need information on the art of the possible with Business Catalyst

Hi
My wife is setting up an online Business that will sell downloadable language resources (for learning foreign languages). These will include worksheets, soundfiles, and also animations (that are being done by a separate animator).
I am a 'rusty' Java developer and have said that I would do the IT for her.
We have purchased an Adobe Creative Cloud subscription as she is doing the worksheets in InDesign, and they will be sold as PDF's.
I have mocked up the beginnings of a website with Muse, but was intending to use that for getting the look and feel right, then replicating it in Java and HTML5.
However, today I started looking a Business Catalyst and seeing what it could do, but I am confused about it.
Would I be able to sell downloadable items using the eCommerce features?
Can I set up a mock shop on the free BC site?
How much does the eCommerce upgrade actually cost? Like I said, we are a Creative Cloud subscriber.
There will be some features that I will need to code, perhaps talking to another database, I understand that you can call out from the app to your own webservices etc?
Thanks for any help.
matt

Hi Matt,
BC sounds like a good solution for you from the little bit you shared.
Do you mean javascript or java? Java doesn't run on BC as FYI.
Here are your answers:
Would I be able to sell downloadable items using the eCommerce features?
Yes you can. BC allows you to have media downloads for purchase.
Can I set up a mock shop on the free BC site?
Yes, you can start a free trial site that will allow you build and try out BC. Once you are ready to go live with the site you would pay to upgrade the site to a live site.
How much does the eCommerce upgrade actually cost? Like I said, we are a Creative Cloud subscriber.
The price is $38.88 per month (USA pricing. AU differs - more info here on pricing: US Monthly Pricing | Adobe Business Catalyst ) with Creative Cloud you have five basic sites with BC but to "upgrade" you pay the regular price for BC sites.
There will be some features that I will need to code, perhaps talking to another database, I understand that you can call out from the app to your own webservices etc?
There are APIs that allow you to talk to other services and send information back to BC.
You can find more answers by reading the KB: BC Help & support
On a side note, if you need help getting started with Business Catalyst I would happily offer my services. Send me a PM if you need additional help.

Hosting Client Sites with Business Catalyst?

Do I have to HOST potential client sites with Business Cataylst in order for the forms widget to work? I am very excited about this tool but this is one major issue that I need clarity on that plan old experience and practice will not answer. I have already used form entry sites that give you the code, but it just isnt MUSE! I get redirected to their sites and makes the overall site look less authentic... Can someone provide a little insight please!!! I'd call in to 1800 MUSE HELP if I could. Thanks!

Yes, the sites need to be hosted with Business Catalyst in order for the forms widget to work out of the box.
Users have also reported success adding contact forms to their site using Adobe FormsCentral, Jotform, or Wufoo and inserting them via Object > Insert HTML.
Read more about Muse's Contact form widgets here - http://www.adobekb.com/adding_contact_forms.html
"If you want to create and style forms with Muse and then upload your site to a different web hosting service, the forms will display as you designed them, but they will not function. If you have experience working with code, you can use Muse to export your site and then open the files in an HTML editor. Update the source code of the form to make it compatible with the form processing technology used by your hosting provider before you upload the files to their server."
Thanks,
Vinayak
