Blog Entries and timed release?

Is there some way in iWeb to set blog entries to appear at a particular time?
For example, I'm off on vacation and would like to set up a few entries to appear while I'm offline.
Would be a nice feature if there was.

Well, that I knew.
What I was wondering was about pre-dated entries. Kind of set and release when ready.
If there is no such capability, then that's that.
Add it to the suggestions for future releases.

  • I want select all blog entries and print them....

    Can somebody help me out? I want to clean up my iweb but would like to keep a print out. Does someone know if you can print all entries in one go???
    The "select all" is light grey and does not work. It will be too much work to print every entry one by one!

    There's a couple ways that I know of, time consuming a bit, but not as much as typing them into word...
    1) if on mac go to blog entry, then press ctrl and click your mouse, then hit save as, and select text..
    2) the other idea is just to select the text in the blog with your mouse and copy and paste into a text program like word...
    good luck.. I've had to do this a few times....

  • Possible to move Blog entry w/ comments from one blog to another?

    Is it possible to take a blog entry and comments from (iWeb) Blog #1 and put them into (iWeb) Blog #2? I can see how moving the pictures and text would be easy......... but I also see that moving Comments might be a No-No.

    Hi Lorna
    well I did it just last night. I copied and pasted and the page is still fully functional.
    I don't know what the "experts" would say but ya can't get much more "hands on expert" than the fact that I just did it and it worked.
    I made a page below my blog in iWeb. Then I just copied & pasted to the new one. I had to adjust on the page (move to fit for the new format) and I had to rename the "entries." Then I deleted the old blog and renamed the new one in iweb.

  • Image from blog entry page not showing up on 'home' page of blog

    My first blog entry went well. I created a blog first page, then created an entry, and dragged a picture to that entry. I saved, published, and all looked great. Even the comment area worked. But when I created a second entry page, and dragge a picture to it, and saved, the photo is not showing up on that first page of the blog, the one that reads like a list only with a picture and teaser part of the entry...See http://web.me.com/brendatharp1/brendatharpblog/OnTheRoad/OnTheRoad.html
    The entry listing is there on the first page, and when you click on the title link, it takes you to the entry page and the photos are there. I noticed that on the first page, the Sept 13th entry with photo is inside a text box of sorts - this was the layered paper template I used and then modified. Dbl-clicking to make that box interactive shows the black floating box for dealing with the placement of the photo in that list; but that box only relates to that one photo from the 13th. If I drag and drop the 15th's photo there, it just sits over the text and doesn't interact. AND I didn't have to do that with the first entry. Any ideas out there? Thanks much, Brenda.

    Does this thread help http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1711038&tstart=15
    I have experienced this and it was because I removed the placeholder and just added the image on the entry page. I duplicate blog entries and delete content to add new stuff so don't have to reformat every time, if you do that don't remove the image just add on the top - it should replace the previous image. Hope this helps, it is frustrating at times but the more you learn the easier it becomes.

  • Adding a "forward to friend" link on blog entries?

    I've setup a blog for myself using iWeb '08. Is it possible to add a link that readers can use to forward my blog entries to their friends?
    Ideally, this feature would forward both my blog entry and a link back to my site, which is similar to the forwarding feature on the nytimes.com website.

    I've discovered that feedburner has a service called feedflare that will insert "Email Article" links into your blog. It seems to be what I'm looking for, but I can't make it work. I'd be quite grateful to anyone who can point me in the right direction.
    I'm supposed to enter in the following code into every blog entry:
    <script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?
    spaceUrl=http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/myfeeduri?i=POST-URL-HERE" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>
    I tried doing this and replaced "myfeeduri" with "mydomain". I am also supposed to replace "POST-URL-HERE" with "your blog’s template tags to dynamically insert the URL of the current post. " What would that tag be for an iWeb created blog?
    I pasted the code into iWeb using the HTML snippet function thinking that the links would at least show up when I published to my site (even though they wouldn't be working) but there was nothing there.
    Many thanks to anyone who can help me out with this one.

  • Photos on blogs entries

    I've successfully created many blog entries. I always use the standard new blog entry and put a photo in it. Twice, I have gone back after publishing and changed the photo on the blog entry page. After I publish though, the main blog page never updates with the new photo. As a result, two of my entry pages out of about a total of 30 have a different photo then what appears on the main blog page. Is there a way to correct this?

    The photo on a blog page is dropped into a placeholder. When you changed the photo you probably deleted it and dragged in a new one. By doing this you deleted the placeholder.
    Go to another "correct" blog page, highlight the photo in the placeholder, copy it and paste it to the page you are trying to repair. Now you have a placeholder and can drag a new photo in to replace the one that's there.

  • IWeb losing, and then corrupting photos in Blog entries

    I have an odd problem, and really need some help!
    I've been posting blog entries with pictures at the end of the text for many months now (over 150 entries), and only recently have run across this problem. After creating a new blog entry, I post the site, and after the site is published, will go to the site and see that the picture in the blog index is fine, but when anyone visits the page of that blog entry, the pictures at the end of the text are gone, and the picture at the start of the blog has a box with an X in it. When I go back into iWeb, the file will either be fine, or will have the X and all of my past posts will have it as well. When I try to re-drag the picture in, it is saying the picture is corrupt. Yet somehow, the next day on the web, the pictures magically appear and all seems fine (after trying to republish several times). This has happened for the past week or so, but seems to be worse as of late.
    I don't know if this is because of occassional connection outages (which seem to happen fairly often) and pictures not completely loading, even though iWeb thinks they are, or if this is from problems on the .mac servers, or problems on my computer with iWeb. I've tried quitting and rebooting, which worked the first time or two that this happened, but no longer helps.
    It's one thing if iWeb is not working correctly, but if this is now corrupting my photos in iPhoto, this is a serious defect! Apple, PLEASE make the next version more stable - we're I just getting started and seeing this, I would have dumped iWeb, but after 4 months and many many entries, it is not easy to move this to a TypePad or other site.
    iMac 24"   Mac OS X (10.4.8)   MacBook Pro, 5.5G iPod Video, G4 Titanium Powerbook

    I'm having this same problem. Is this a known bug?
    On my iWeb site, the pictures in my blog keeping getting "corrupted" and are unusable, and the only way I can get iWeb to accet them again is to export them from iPhoto, do a save-as, and re-import them into iPhoto.
    Please tell me there is some sort of fix.

  • 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!

  • Deleting my blog and its entries, and my account

    I'm sure this question is in the wrong place, but I just can't find where to get it answered.
    I checked out your site and made a small blog (which was not published, anyway) as a test for my company. They have decided to go in a different direction and now I wish to  eliminate both the blog and the account. Short of just editing the blog entry down to do nothing (which I will do if there is no way to delete the account), how do I do this?
    Thank you in advance for your answers.

    When you have a disabled account, you need to contact itunes support.

  • New blog entries experience "error updating .Mac", and no "add comments"

    Blog always worked fine. Now new blog entries get error updating .Mac message. New post does appear online, but there is no Add Comments option, despite it being selected in the inspector. Also, the blog main page doesn't show a title in the title bar at top. Might this have something to do with the new Mobile Me features (which I haven't tried or signed up for). When I delete the new posting and publish, it publishes fine. This error even happens with the template pg, so it's not anything to do with my formatting. Thanks for your help.

    I have not tried publishing a new Blog entry since the new "me" thing, but I did try just a text edit on an existing Entry and republished the Entry. It seemed to function normally.
    However, all of my Comments are missing from all my Blog entries - although the hit counts are still there.
    And my Slide Shows won;t work and thumbnails won't enlarge on my photo pages.
    Everything was working perfectly before this big "improvement" we just got.
    I sure hope this is temporary or I just might throw a fit. There was a lot of valuable stuff in those comments, and if there won;t be a Comments function at all, I won't be able to keep my blog at mac. com or me whatever.
    Why fix what isn't broken?

  • Blog entry page won't publish from iWeb and MobilMe....

    For some reason my blog entry page wont publish on my website. The rest of the site does, including my blog and archive, but not the new page. I do see the new page on the blog page, but when you click on it the new page has no text or pictures. When I published (uploaded) everything went as usual, I just can't see that page published. Any ideas?

    Have you tried the File->Publish All to Mobileme menu option? That often will jump start a belligerent page.

  • Lost iWeb '09 Blog Entries

    I kept a number of blogs pertaining to my pregnancy and several other topics. A few months ago, I moved the blogs from my main site and created a new site I called Archive. My plan was to publish these to a folder for backup purposes, but the publish always fails.
    My larger problem is that now, the blog entries seem to be...not gone, exactly, but I can't see them. On two, the main blog page shows up, and when I click on Entries, I can see the list of my entries and their titles, but I can't scroll through them (list snaps back if I release the mouse button). I can't click on them either. One blog works just fine. One shows the main splash page, but shows only the background of the Entries page.
    iWeb won't let me move these out of my Archive site. I have been unable to publish them to MobileMe or to a folder. I've tried deleting plists, etc. but nothing works. Restoring from backup messes up my current sites.
    Help, please. I'd like to not lose these. Are these files alive somewhere?

    The entries are kept on the MobileMe server I believe and are linked to your main site. If you can move those blog sites back into your main site you might be able to get the entires back. No guarantee however.

  • Add meta property="go:image" to my blog entries

    How do I add <meta property="go:image" to my individual blog entries?
    The way I had it configured was working until yesterday - when the new BC update was released - and I am now getting this message from the FB Debugger
    Meta Tags In Body
    Your page has meta tags in the body instead of the head. This may be because your HTML was malformed and they fell lower in the parse tree.
    Please fix this in order for the tags to be usable.

    Liam -
    I disabled the beta features and that seemed to fix the problem this morning without adding the <head></head> ---- that seemed to work until it didn't...
    so I went and added <head></head> updated, check the source code - looked like it took the <head></head> tags but the FB Debugger scraper still came back with same error
    went back into the editor and it had removed the <head></head> tags
    I've tested a number of blog posts and commerce items - some work, some don't (could be old scrapes I suppose)
    I also had to switch from using the editor in Safari to Chrome to get the editor to update anything
    (To my knowledge I never actually enabled beta - noticed the editor change a month or so ago - I knew it was buggy after talking to support about that time, but this meta image tag was working till Friday so I hadn't disabled it)

  • Blog entry dates

    I had only just started playing with the blog service on 10.4 server and only had two entries, both about a month old. I note that after having upgraded to 10.5 Server, both blog entries are dated TODAY.
    If I had had any serious amount of blogging under my belt, I think I'd be pretty upset by this! Is this a bug, or a feature?

    Followup: I decided to look into the logs. I found this:

  • How to delete a blog entry in Lion Server Wiki?

    Anyone know how to do this?  It seems that even logged in as system administrator you cannot delete blog entries using the web interface. 
    Wiki help unhelpfully reports that "If Delete Page or Delete File isn't listed, you can't delete the page or file.".  Really?
    Thanks in advance for any help avail.

    The above works most of the time, but sometimes User accounts can be stubborn.  I setup an admin account, perhaps unecessarily, when installing lion on a new solid state hard drive.  After migrating my original Admin account over from the hard drive I had difficulty in removing the newly created Admin (method: I clicked the minus and deleted the home folder, checking 'erase home folder securely') which resulted in the acct. being downgraded to Standard.  Still it would show up at startup login screen.  Although logging in to this account (to attempt to logout and then reattempt the delete) was not possible (never ending spinning beachball - not what you want with 20G RAM and a top end SSD).
    Then I found this -
    http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13727_7-57326230-263/remove-stubborn-user-accounts- with-directory-utility/
    - which could be helpful if you are having similar problems with user accounts in Lion.
