Blog front page

So far I am having sooo many problems with glitches on iWeb.
Including the fact that on my blog site, it refuses to preview the images that are within the blog. It only shows them for one posting made yesterday.
What is going on? How can I get these images to show on the main page of my blog?

Blowing up small pictures usually become blurry.
Use the original size to display.

Editing Fonts in Excerpts on Blog Front Page

Is there anyway to edit the look of the way the entries to each of the blog entries appears on the "front page" of the blog?
If you click on it a message says, "This is a list of excerpt from your blog entries. Edit the text on the entry page." The problem is editorial changes made to the fonts - colors & size, for example - do not affect how the list of excerpts look on the front page.
What am I missing? Thanks.

Patricia,
I downloaded and modified your Blog.css file, you can download it here:
http://www.geocities.com/[email protected]/landis_mdi/Blog.css
I changed the font and made the font color darker. You need to do:
1) Locate your Blog.css file in your iDisk, it should be in Blog_files folder.
2) Rename the current Blog.css file to ~Blog.css. In case you would like to reverse the change.
3) Place the modified Blog.css file in Blog_files folder.
Open your main Blog.html and refresh the page to see if that's what you like.

Remove/Alter "Read More" on Blog front page

Is there any way to remove or alter the "Read More" that automatically comes up on the front page of a blog done through iWeb? My posts are all small enough to fit in the space allotted, so there is nothing more to read.

One more time (note there is nothing to see on the page, view the source) :

Blog front page limited to last 5 posts?

Hi, the blog homepage seems to be limited to the last 5 entries in the blog, can this be increased? I can't find an obvious way to do it.

Blog Summary/Entry-link on front-page?

Hi all!
I have a front-page and a blog-page on my newly created iWeb '08 site, and it's working great.
However I'd like to have my blog-entries show up on the front-page, just the title as a link, that takes you to the blog entry.
I'd rather not make the blog summary page my front-page, because I like the layout of the front-page, but I'd also like my visitors to be able to quickly go to my blog-posts from the front-page.
Is this possible, maybe via the new Web Widgets feature? Seems like something a lot of people would want to do, and maybe it's right there in front of me, I just can't seeem to find it
Another thing: Has anyone made a "iWeb 08 Web Widgets Repository" or something like that? A place to collect and share great Web Widgets for iWeb?

Use an RSS feeder like feeddigest or your servers own to create a java script that will "scrape" your site. If you don't care what it looks like there are a number of them out there, if you want customization go with feeddigest. You won't get updates very quickly (24 hour turnaround), but it looks better than most.

Can we do multiple blog summary pages instead of "go to archive"??

Hello,
I have about 50 blog entries in my iWeb blog. I have 15 loading onto the first page. Any more really slows the front page loading times a lot. The only way to see the other blog entries is to click on "go to archive" which just shows a simple text list. Is there a way to have many summary pages of blog entries so a blog reader can click on "next page" and see them, much nicer than just seeing text titles in a list.
-Josh

I am having the same issue. 50 looks like the limit.
I have made a new podcast/blog page for newer work, leaving the old stuff up on the already existing pages. Maybe you can just retitle all your pages by year, and just keep adding new ones as necessary.
The other problem I have is, that iTunes only lists entries visible on the Home page. So if I choose to feature only the newest podcast, it will be the only one that is catalogued by iTunes for download in the iTunes store.
This forces me to list every episode on the main page, which looks crummy, and basically eliminates the need for an "Archive" altogether.
Why doesn't iTunes use the iWeb generated Archive for this, or am I missing something major here?

Multiple blog summary pages

I'm creating a new website for sharing news and photos for my family. I want to use the iWeb blog for my entries and plan to do some customization of my site through HTML snippits, iFrames, etc. I've been reading quite a bit on this forum and other useful sites on how to do more with iWeb, but I can't seem to find a solution for the following problem.
Let's say I allow 15 blog entries to be shown on my blog summary page yet over time I build a site with 50 or more entries. Then at least 35 will be on the archive page and that's alot to scroll through. I'd like to have the first 15 on blog summary page 1 then the next 15 on blog summary page 2, etc. Call it multiple archive pages if you will. But I want iWeb to keep track of the blog entries on those additional pages instead of me having to create new non-blog pages and copy and paste links to my entries.
Here's an example
http://allaboutiweb.com/
Any way to do this with iWeb 09?
FYI, I know there are a lot of other blogging software and hosting sites out there, but I want to use iWeb 09 because I've already created one site in the past with iWeb so I'm familiar with it. I also have a Mobile Me account with a domain name through goDaddy, so I'm publishing my iWeb site to Mobile Me with password protection.
Appreciate the help.

first, iweb limits blog summary to display 50 entries, so you are kinda limited if you want to have a continuous blog over the years.
if you have less than 50 entries per year, you have to break your blog into the year and have a master archive page and link all archive blog(s) to it.
once you decide what to do, you can use iweb rss feed widget to display the archive as feed, but i don't recommend iweb rss feed widget because it depends on mme server, unreliable at best.
instead you can use yahoo's pipes: http://pipes.yahoo.com/pipes/
yahoo pipes is reliable and flexible, you can build your own feed that you can merge other feeds into one or keep them separate, here is my example of merged feeds:
http://www.cyclosaurus.com/Home/CyclosaurusBlog/Entries/2009/7/25Not_iWebWidget.html
or you can tag blog entries by key words or categories, your users can narrow down the entries display with it, here my iweb blog tagging (click on any tagged word on the right side):
http://www.cyclosaurus.com/Home/CyclosaurusBlog/Archive.html
all code is linked to my examples. to do the above, you need to know yahoo pipes, ajax/javascript and iweb inner working parts.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

The links I send to my album opens the Revel front page on other computers.

If I copy the link form my browser as the FAQ page says (FAQ: How do I share files in Revel?) it opens only the Revel front page on other computers. Also in the Mac app, the share option is not active. What's wrong?
And an additional question: if I shared an album this way, by sharing the link, is there any way to cancel the sharing?

Hi Gábor,
It is possible you are sharing the wrong URL. This wouldn't surprise me as the FAQ is terribly confusing. I am going to re-state how to share an album with friends.
To share an album from adoberevel.com:
1. Go into your Library and create an album with whatever images you'd like.
2. While in the album select Share. A dialog displays - select to Start Sharing
3. After that another dialog displays with a short URL. Copy that URL and send it out via email or use one of the share icons that display on that screen. You can also select from that screen if you want people to be able to download images.
You can select to stop sharing the album at any time by going back to that same dialog and select to Stop Sharing.
If you want to share an album through the Revel Desktop:
1. Go into your Library and select the Album icon (or go to File>New Empty Album
2. Enter a name for you album. Select the Share to adoberevel.com checkbox. You can also decide if you want to allow downloads here.
3. A short URL will be generated. You can copy that now if you'd like or come back to it. Select Create button.
4. Add photos to the album.
5. Click on the album in the list and a little " i " will display next to the album name. Click on it and the URL will display. That is the URL that you share.
Again, you can select to stop sharing the album at any time by going back to that same dialog and select to Stop Sharing.

Blog and Pages API?

I am not seeing an API listed for Blogs or Pages...
http://developers.businesscatalyst.com/reference/api-endpoints/index.html
When will these be added if at all?
Thanks...

Hi psteil,
For pages, while we don't have the complete set of API that will allow you to replicate the admin edit page interface, you have the file create, update apis that will allow you to write html files on the site.
Blogs APIs are not yet exposed, this is something that's going to be worked on towards the end of the year. We're planning to release additional APIs in the second half of the year, but we're more likely going to start with CRM or eCommerce APIs first and then move to other areas of the system.

Blog entry didn't show up on blog summary page. ¿Por qué?

RE: Blog
Last night I wrote a blog entry, but the first few sentences did NOT show up on the blog summary page. I previously had set the blog entry length to be short (toggled far to the left), but there is a difference between a short length and NO length at all.
Why do you suppose this happened?
INFORMATION: Prior to writing the blog entry I was having difficulty with the picture not showing up on the blog entry page, and in trying to edit it and move text around I might have messed up some registration lines, or LINES. Could that have had an effect? I must say that of all the things involved in iWeb, this Blog feature has given me the most problems and made me the angriest. Just thinking about it right now has created a tight knot in my chest.
Lorna in Southern California

Go back to your main blog summary page in iWeb. Open
the Inspector to the RSS tab and slide the text
excert slider to show ALL (all the way to the right).
Does ANY of your blog text show up in this
particular entry?
.......... Lorna says ................................................
Well, Inspector Tseng, I toggled to the *Show All* position, and heheheh, none of the blog entry showed on the blog summary page.
If not, then perhaps you entered
your text in a different text box....did you add a
text box to the page? If it does, then maybe you
have some preceding spaces in the text box? Or
maybe you inserted a photo into the text box
inadvertently?
.......... Lorna says ................................................
James, last night I was having so many dang blasted flippin cockamamie problems with the picture that I moved a bunch of things around and recall making a new text box and typing into it. Grrrr.
I am going to return there and copy and paste and delete that page. I feel very bad that I cannot master the blog after so much stupid time. I also think that the blog needs to be more idiot proofed so that normally OK actions in other iWeb scenarios don't end up as yet another disaster on the ash heap of broken iWeb dreams.

Blog Summary Page Does Not Update Picture

For some reason, when I create a new blog entry by duplicating the last one and adding new content, the Blog Summary page will not update the picture. I sometimes either have to create a new blank blog entry, or drag a different picture into the placeholder, followed by my original.
Is this happening to anyone else? I think I am going to finish out my year-long blog project with iWeb/MobileMe, then drop both! This is getting to frustrating.

Perhaps to this person:
_blog summary didn't show the pictures_.

A wise move — problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums: Lost all blog entries or all comments or unable to publish, etc. If you switch to a dedicated blogging platform you're likely to have a better experience. For a success story using a non-iWeb blog hosted on WordPress, see this old thread:
