An iWeb blog about iWeb

I've been playing around with IWeb since I got iLife '06 on Friday. As part of this exercise I've put together a blog in which I'm commenting on the experience and the pros and cons of iWeb as a web publishing solution. Why not drop by. You might just find some helpful pointers about using iWeb.
You'll find the blog here:

Any blog about how to install/configure/trouble-shoot BO?

Gurus:
Would you please help direct to some blogs about BO or share your experience? Thanks!

Hi,
We have been using Business Objects EDGE XI R3.0 on a MS SQL 2005 database for a little over a year now. Installation was a little rough in the beginning, mostly with getting the ODBC connections straight and our unvierses setup properly for our customers. After that, the system has run fairly smoothly. We are running the system under Red Hat Enterprise LINUX. Most of our issues tend to be data related and not product related. We do experience issues with our concurrent sessions license. Sometimes individuals log in more then once, or do not close the browser correctly and take licenses un-necessarily. This truly is our biggest issue at this time.
As for blogs that may be helpful, I have found these to be helpful:

Three part blog about Reducing the Cost to Implement a Security Plan

Part 3 of a great blog done by in AlienVault Support who has "heard it all" about the problems SMBs have in implementing a security plan with small budgets. Kenneth offers lots of practical and helpful advice for IT and security practitioners.

hi Elistariel -
With no texting plan, it is 25 cents per picture message. The LG VX5500 (same phone my daughter has) does not use a memory card, so you can try two different programs on your computer (both free) and see if either one will get the pics off and saved on your computer; from there you can upload to your online album without a per picture charge.
You can try Verizon's VCast media manager - download and install it on your computer, then use the USB cable to link the phone to the computer and transfer the pics with VCast.
Here's a link
A third party program called BitPim will also work, but it's more technical and does a lot more than just transfer your media. It can also brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing, so it's "use at your own risk", as Verizon won't cover any losses due to using BitPim. It does work though--I have used it, very cautiously!

I have made a blog about Web templates...please have a look

Hello Everyone,
In my quest to make web templates I could not find a whole lot of relevant info. I feel like I am flying blind. I had asked, in a previous thread, for anybody with knowledge on making templates to share this info. Well, we did not get a whole lot.
So, I have decided to make a public spectacle of my adventure in creating them. Please visit the blog, and please chime in if you have relevant info, or questions (please note though, any questions may not be answered right away. At least not by me-'cause as of right now I have no answers LOL). The more people that participate the faster we will all learn how to do this.
http://lrwebtemplates.blogspot.com/
My goal is to create a pdf of this knowledge once we have ironed out out all the bugs. Thanks for looking. And thanks in advance for any help/participation in the effort.

Thanks for doing this, Paul. Hopefully you'll get some useful stuff to add to it soon. A n additional item is the entry on Goerge Jardine's Lightroom Journal from Andrew Rahn. Nothing new there for us who have worked on trying to figure thsi stuff out and hardly the direction I had hoped things would go, but maybe it will lead to more in the future.

Move iWeb MobileMe Blog to Wordpress

I had to migrate my private Blog about my 2 years old little daughter from Apples mobileme servers to a wordpress account.
I wanted to keep all the comments too (Marlas birth..). So i wrote a perl script to do the job. It is far from beeing perfect, but it works for me. So it may work for you too. You have to adjust some things, that‘s for sure.
Features:
-Keep Comments
-Keep Images (hmm mostly)
-Sets email-adresses for comments by Name
-Sets Tags by text strings occured in title or body
-Free, but my daughter will get every euro you donate! THX!
Note: The script works only while the apple servers are up. After 30. June all your comments are gone!

@MirkoW, would you like to wrap your pl script in an applescript app?
i can help you with that, so people like moopie can just double click and run your app without launching terminal.app.
sorry, i'm just can code some little perl. Applescript is completly new to me. I don't think it's worth the time since the mobileme servers are shut down in june.
moopie wrote:
Cyclosaurus, what an excellent idea! MirkoW, I gave it a try and got it to generate a file, but wasn't successful yet. I originally published my blog to a folder on my computer. The way my blog is set up, I have three separate sections, each with its own archive and RSS feed. Don't ask me why - it was the only way I could think to separate several different years of posts on my blog.
Hmm, we have to see if we can get the images right. The main problem is that iweb uses the same shapeimageXYZ.png shema for every post and wordpress need to have unique filenames. So my script is guessing the filenames wordpress makes out of them by importing. sorry my english is not as good it should for explaining in detail. Example
iWeb hat 2 posts both with
shapeimage_1.png
So the first post get's the filename shapeimage_1.png but the second post get's the filename shapeimage_11.png.
But what if you have later an image which has already the name shapeimage_11.png?
You got the problem?
For me it works with some tricks. so don't be afraid, i can look into it if you want.
moopie wrote:
Does the perl script need to be in the same folder as the posts I want to export?
No, the script does not use any local file, it get's all information directly from the mobileme servers.
Thanks for your patience - I do appreciate your help on this and I see the potential for your script. It's the closest thing to a solution I've seen so far. Worst case scenario, I'll get an engineer at work to help me figure out what to do!
can you give me the link to your blog? so i can look into the html code. I think that would be the fastest way to help you.

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

Not to difficult to use.

Automator for iWeb

I don't see any Automator options in iWeb. I hope that they add support in the future so that you can do page edits really quickly. For example, if you select the Black Blog Template, you could have an Automator script that removes the default image, movest the text entries up the page to fill the space and then modifies the title (to something other than 'My Blog'), appends an email link/icon or feedback button and voila... Custom Template!
Just a thought...

I too was surprised not to see iWeb in Automator's Applications list. It would simplify things immensely for me too (see my entry "The joys of customisation" on my iWeb Blog about iWeb).
I've sent feedback. Have you?

IWeb pages disappeared!

Hi there! I brought up iWeb to add content to my website and it's not there! Hopefully it's a glitch but something tells me i may have to start all over again with this. I went to my Mobile Me account and idisk is not even working so i can't get through that way. Help! Am I totally 'Out of Luck'? Thanks. Thia

Sorry to hear your work is lost. This is not a typical Apple experience overall but unfortunately it is typical in this scenario. When or if you have saved your iWeb outside the default file folder Library/Application Support/iWeb, when Apple updates iWeb it often forgets where you were pointing iWeb to originally.
This is the third time it has happened to me, luckily this last time I didn't count on Apple to live up to their brand promise (they usually do, but of all things not to, people's pictures, memories and websites are something you don't want to mess with as you all know).
I backed up my site using Time Machine, unfortunately the last back up was April 27th so I'm still losing months of blogs about my daughter (which someday I was hoping to share with her when she's older). Disappointing that they can't get this right for a few people.
If you moved your domain.sites or domain.sites2 files to another location aside from the default you can try to find them and double click them to open. If you can't find them, you're SOL without a back up. All in all, my only terrible heartbreaking experience on a Mac.

IWeb background disappeared

I saved an iWeb site to a folder, checked its contents, all OK. But then when I upload it with TRANSMIT, a page background disappears! Later, on re-checking the folder, it actually made it disappear in the folder too! Like magic!
I have tried erasing the old folder and creating a new one, uploading it again, and the same thing happens! Any ideas?
