Blog post Publish vs Update

This question was asked in February here and answered, but it clearly was never addressed.
When a blog post is saved as a draft, the PUBLISH button becomes the UPDATE button and there is no longer any clear indication to the client of whether their post is public or not.
This includes the post list which does not show the status of a blog post. Is a fix coming?
Best,

It's a 2-step process. 'Creating pages' does exactly what it says. It's like publishing to a local folder, but with .Mac functionality included. Actual uploading to .Mac only commences when page creation is complete. That's when the progress indicator(s) appear, and it's only then that you regain control of the application.
As to your concern that the process takes a long time when you add 'just a new photo page', you go on yourself to explain why doing this necessitates re-creation of every page in the site — it's precisely because of 'the name of the new page being added to the list of available photo pages in the list at the top of each page'. Once you add a page and include this on the navigation bar, every page which displays the navigation bar has to be updated.

Anyone missing their blog after 2.02 update?

I updated to 2.02 yesterday and when I openend my site the entire blog was gone??? Anyone have this problem?
I grabbed the site files from my .mac account so the blog is still there but I'm not sure how to get that back into iweb?
Also, I had added 3 new blog posts before the update which I had saved but not published yet - those are gone - I assume for good?
Please help if you have any idea...

Actually, I'm missing my entire site. For more on that, check the 'site missing' thread.

How to NOT publish a draft blog post?

Lots of times I'm working on a blog post and don't want to publish it, but there may be others in the queue that DO need to upload. IS there anyway to do this?

Yea, this is what I figured. I DID try this: I made a new site, thinking I could drag the blog posts, but it doesn't work like pages.
I actually use a program called Scrivener to write my weekly columns. I guess I'll use it for iWeb, too. Just was looking for a way to play with layouts before publishing.

Indexed field num_comments on blog post not updating during incremental crawl

Hi,
Have a webpart that rolls blog posts from MySite and other Team sites.
Everything works fine excepts that the property ows_numcomments (which I have a managed property mapped to) is only updated after a full crawl has run (ie once per night or manually started).
Why is it so and what can I do to make updating during an incremental crawl?
Thanks,
/Owe
Background:
Query resulttype is RelevantResults
TrimDuplicate is true
MPNumComments is mapped to ows_numcomments
Searchstring
"SELECT Title, Author, Path, SiteTitle, MPNumComments, MPPublishedDate FROM SCOPE() WHERE scope='Blogs' AND contentclass='STS_ListItem_Posts' ORDER BY MPPublishedDate DESC";

Can you do full crawl and check this property is getting updated. If not then either incremental crawl is not updating the value or there is some problem with the field configuration.

2nd Blog posting not publishing?

Hello,
I just realized that the most recent BLOG post for my website is not loading/displaying. I have tried re-publishing to a folder and re-uploading it (via godaddy) using FETCH, but the BLOG still isn't correct. The first post is fine, just the second. Any reason(s) this would happen?
Thanks

this is the link, if necc. The most recent posting is the prob.

I am creating a website using IWEB, but will not be
publishing to .Mac.
Does anyone know if there's a way to create a blog?
Why would you think that you need to publish to .Mac to have a blog?
Blog Comments/Searching will be missing if you use another server, but you can use Haloscan for comments.

Rss feed won't publish all my blog posts, help please!

I posted my blog in iWeb using the rss feed widget. I have about 10 blog posts on my blog, but only about 5 show up in the feed. I have changed the size of the page, and the amount of articles in the feed inspector to 20. Is this a problem with the cache? If it is I will delete it. Please help!

Ok...
You are running 10.6.2 according to your profile. Download and install the v10.6.3 Combo Update
Then repair disk permissions.
Quit any open applications/programs. Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

REST API Update blog post discussion

Discuss the
REST API Update blog post.

Asymmetric keys stored in Key Vault are not intended for bulk data encryption. They are to be used as master keys. For bulk data encryption recommended method is to use an AES key and then WRAP this AES key with the RSA key stored in the key vault. Then
Store the WRAPPED AES key and the URI to the key in Key Vault as metadata with the encrypted data.
Depending on the scenario one could use a chain of keys that end in an asymmetric key in the Key Vault. It's difficult to recommend a solution without knowing your specific scenario. There can be several things to consider and many trade-off of different
approaches.

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?

Iframe removed from blog post

I am attempting to post a YouTube video in a blog post. When I hit save and publish the iframe is removed! Here is the code I am attempting:
<div style="width: 560px; margin:auto 0;">
<iframe width="560" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/video-code?rel=0&modestbranding=1&iv_load_policy=3" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
</div>
The output I see in the code is:
<div style="width: 560px; margin:auto 0;"></div>
Anyone else seeing this?

Cannot publish Flash Updates Verification of file signature failed for file SCUP 2011, SCCM 2012 R2 and WSUS all on same Windows Server 2012 machine

I am attempting to distribute Adobe Flash updates using SCUP 2011, SCCM 2012 R2, WSUS ver4 and Windows Server 2012. Everything installs without error. I have acquired a certificate for SCUP signing from the internal Enterprise CA. I have
verified the signing certificate has a 1024 bit key. I have imported the certificate into the server's Trusted Publishers and Trusted Root CA stores for the computer. When I attempt to publish a Flash update with Full content I receive the following
error:
2015-02-13 23:00:48.724 UTC Error Scup2011.21 Publisher.PublishPackage PublishPackage(): Operation Failed with Error: Verification of file signature failed for file:

I have redone the certificates three times with no luck. I can import metadata, but any attempt to download content results in the verification error.
TIA

Hi Joyce,
This is embarrassing, I used that very post as my guide when deploying my certificate templates, but failed to change the bit length to 2048. Thank you for being my second set of eyes.
I changed my certificate key bit length to 2048, deleted the old cert from all certificate stores, acquired the a new signing cert, verified the key length was 2048, exported the new cert to pfx and cer files, imported into my Trusted publishers
and Trusted Root Authorities stores, reconfigured SCUP to use the new pfx file, rebooted the server and attempted to re-publish the updates with the following results:
2015-02-16 13:35:44.006 UTC Error Scup2011.4 Publisher.PublishPackage PublishPackage(): Operation Failed with Error: Verification of file signature failed for file:
\\SCCM\UpdateServicesPackages\a2aa8ca4-3b96-4ad2-a508-67a6acbd78a4\3f82680a-9028-4048-ba53-85a4b4acfa12_1.cab.
Is there a chance this content was already created and signed with the old cert, so installing the new cert has no effect? In ConfigMgr software updates I see 4 Flash updates, all marked Metadata Only (because they were originally published as "Automatic."
No Flash updates in the ConfigMgr console are marked as downloaded. I can't find any documentation on how the process of using SCUP for downloading content for an update marked Metadata Only actually works.
Comments and suggestions welcome.

Path issue leaving me unable to add blog post content in design view

Hi guys,
I am unable to add blog post content in design view when a template is applied to my blog. BC support have told me they fixed the problem by making minor changes to the paths of the css and javascript files and then told me to post on here for the solution.
When I call the files using <link rel="stylesheet" href="/css/custom.css" /> everything displays perfectly but in BC I can't add blog post content in design view. I can edit in html but this isn't ideal for clients to update the blog.
If I change the paths to <link rel="stylesheet" href="css/custom.css" /> it fixes the problem and I can then edit blog content in design view but all blog pages that are in folders display incorrectly. Only the main blog page display properly.
I'm sure the answer is simple but I can't find it so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
Pete

I took a look at your page URL and can't find any CSS issues or styles that would directly affect you editing/adding content to a blog post via the content editor.
Make sure you either clear your cache or try in another browser to see if the problem is localized to your current browser.
If you still have the problem can you link me to a screencast (you can use Jing if you don't have a screencast program: http://www.techsmith.com/jing.html) of what you are experiencing?

Bug in BLOG Post.aspx

This is a spin off from a previous issue I had but now I think this is a bug and it appears to only be in the Post.aspx view. To summarize, when the exact same web part is added to the POST.aspx page as well as the /Forms/AllItems.aspx page, it
crashes on the first and works on the latter.
To try and keep this short I'll be simple
Initial setup.....
1) Create a Team Site with a contacts app
2) Create a Blog SUB site with a contacts app and a document app
3) In the team site, create a new Site Column that is a Lookup to it's Contact app (based on Last Name Linked Field)
4) In the sub BLOG site, create a new Site Column that is a Lookup to it's Contact app (based on Last Name Linked Field)
5) In the sub BLOG site, add both the Parent Team Site Lookup and the Blog Site Lookup as an "Existing Column" to both the POST and the Document Apps.
so at this point, you should have a blog sub site with a Post app and a Document app that have 2 new columns added: One is the Contact lookup column from the Parent site, the other is the Contact Lookup column from the local Blog site.
Let the fun begin...
6) On the Blog post details page (the page that comes up when you click on the title of an individual BLOG post), add 2 new web parts.... one is the existing "Post" library, which means you would have the same info just in a different view) and
the other web part is the existing "Document" library. For each newly added Web part.... edit the current view and make sure to include the newly added Lookup columns.
7) On the Blog's Document library page (the page that comes up when you view everything in this app), add 2 new web parts.... one is the existing "Post" library, and the other web part is the existing "Document" library (which
is a duplicate of the already existing web part). For each newly added Web part.... edit the current view and make sure to include the newly added Lookup columns.
Results....
What you should see is that the actual "POST" page (/List/Posts/Post.aspx?ID=n) will not even display the original untouched web part. The added Document web part (with the new columns showing) will show and the Contact Linking works. The
second occurrence of the Post Web part (which includes the new lookup columns) crashes and displays an error on the screen.
If you open up the Document Library, you will see the original untouched web part working, and BOTH of the newly added web parts which includes the exact same "Post" + new Lookup columns as above.
... so long story short... the same web part for the same object library with the same display columns works in the _layouts/15/start.aspx#/myDocs/Forms/AllItems.aspx however does not work in the the /_layouts/15/start.aspx#/Lists/Posts/Post.aspx

If you really feel it's a bug, you could join the +Apple Developer Connection+ — the +ADC Online+ category is free, here:
...then you can use this to create a trackable problem report:
...And no, you don't need to be a "developer" to join — just an Apple user who wants to make sure Apple knows there's a bug and have the ability to track its resolution.
Problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums — so you may soon be back with a different iWeb blog problem: Lost all blog entries or all comments or unable to publish, etc. And whether iWeb's blog works well or not is of little concern to Apple as it's only a tiny part of their software repertoire. 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:

Template breaks when viewing Blog Post Details Layout

I've made a new ECommerce site with my own template (HTML en CSS). On the Blog Post List is my new template. But when I click on the title or permalink, Then my template breaks and all I see is the text from my template and the blog post detail. What can I do?
Regards,
A.H. Bakker

Yes, just as I suspected. A lot of your CSS, JS and IMAGE assets are referenced incorrectly in your page template or page.
Right now, in your page template you are referecing IMG elements with a "relative URL":
<img src="images/myimage.jpg"/>
That will work fine on the homepage and first-level pages like "/" and "/blog" because the browser will attempt to load:
http://yoursite.com/images.myimage.jpg
But, if like on your blog detail pages which are located deeper in the websites folder structure "/blog/nog-maar-eentje" since this URL places you on the "nag-maareetje" page inside the "blog" folder, your relative URL will lead the browser to try and load
http://yoursite.com/blog/myimage.jpg
That is not the correct location for our images folder which is directory in the site's root folder. To avoid this issue, you need to update your references to all images that's SRC attribute start with "images/" and change it to a "site relative URL" simply by prepending a "/" at the beginnging of the SRC attribute:
<img src="/images/myimage.jpg"/>
You'lll need to replicate this process for your CSS and Javascript references too. CSS references will look like:
<link href="css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
Becomes:
<link href="/css/style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
And javascript:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/lib.js"></script>
Becomes
<script type="text/javascript" src="/js/lib.js"></script>
Anywhere that a reference to a javascript, stylesheet or image starts without a slash, "/" and just begins with the folder or asset ("images/...", "myimage.jpg") are relative URLs. You'll also see URLs that are absolute and those are URLs in your code that start with "http://yoursite.com" or "http://yoursite.businesscatalyst.com". Those you don't have to worry about since they are absolute and won't get mucked up when you are trying to load those from page within your site.
After you edit your page templates you might need to fix the same problem in your pages that are in a subfolder of your site.

Can you set up a subscription service so blog posts are emailed to subscribers

I would like to allow people to sign up to receive my blog posts via email (ie like how they can in blogger etc) but can't see anywhere to do this?
Is it possible?
Thanks

I guess it depends who your targets are - do they have any interest in modern forms of social media or is email even a push for them.
To be able to add a blog post about an important update/thing to do and have it emailed out provides both an easy online place for people to look back over the information as well as the immediate provision of information via email, without me having to both email the people the information and also provide an online back up of that information.
In this case it is creating double the work.
I know I check my email several times a day (OK more than that, lol), social media - facebook - a couple of times a week (so I miss a lot), twitter - nearly never.
How have I found out about most things (personally) in the last two years? - via word of mouth or email.
The market I am working with I would say mostly word of mouth (or frustratingly not enough of that) so am hoping to provide the information via the website and encourage people to check the website more regularly but also know when there is important updates available.
I don't want to have to email out the updates and also blog them for posterity.
It doesn't appear every other blogging software company agrees with you as a subscription service is always available and well utilised.
(oh and I will say I don't think business catalyst was the perfect platform for this site, but I inherited it).

Blog post at SP home page

I need to create blog post at SP 2013 home page. with this pic. should appear permanently and right of the pic post text detail should be there. Wheneven new post created it should update with new post and picture at left should remain same.
is there a way to achieve this.
If we can implement it through any webpart which one is that.
Thanks in adv !!

One way you can achieve this is using the Content by Query Web Part and custom XSLT for the web part. Go through the couple of examples below on how to roll up the blog post with custom XSLT. In your case you will be rolling up the one item i.e. the latest
blog post and then change the XSLT to display the image that you want to display with blog.
