Business Catalyst with Partners

Hello all.
We were hosting our site on Business Catalyst. We signed up through one of the partner. Is there a reason to go with the partner rather than signing up directly on Adobe Site.
Partner's monthly fee is higher and they take comissions on the sales along with the merchant service provider and payment gateway. We have to deal with multiple vendors.
I am planning to set up a new site, remove the ecommerce part and sell on Amazon store.
Thanks.

There is a lot to learn in Business Catalyst,
Being with a partner ensures you have a good stable relationship and someone who can do the work needed and help BC improve on your behalf. There are though many partners like Pretty that do not charge for commision or put on extra monthly charges. You may for the work you need and pay directly with Adobe.
Partners who are charging a monthly for example though do so because they will likely have regular work they cary out for you each month like taking backups of your site. Every partners runs slightly differently and the partner community is very strong.

    How do I verifysites hosted on adobe business catalyst with google?

    Hey MARTI BETZ,
    If you're referring to Google Webmaster Tools, as provided in the link below, there are multiple ways in order to verify your site. The easiest method would be to verify your site ownership by adding a DNS record. If you have redelegated your domain to use BC's nameservers, simply add the appropriate record via Site Settings > Site Domains.

  • I have a Creative Cloud plan but i can't enter in Business Catalyst with my Adobe Id , why?

    I have also try to upload i site from Muse, but the software tel me I have not credential enough!

    Hello,
    Please provide more information on the issue. What is the exact error message that you get when you try to publish a site from Muse? Also, if you go to Edit -> Preferences in Muse, what is the email address that you see in the "publish with account" section? Is that the same email address that you used to subscribe to cloud?
    As for being able to login to Business Catalyst (or mainly to the admin console of your site), you will only be able to do that once you publish a site to Business Catalyst from Muse or Dreamweaver, because only after you do that, a free partner account will be created with the email address that you used to subscribe to cloud with.
    Hope this helps.
    Cheers

  • Help: Using Adobe Muse & Business Catalyst with Google Domains: URL not mapping

    Hi,
    I've had some issues publishing my site to the internet using Adobe Muse (version CC 2014) and publishing to Adobe Business Catalyst.
    I am currently using Google Domains to host my domain name (www.mattandsangeeta.com) and have tried on multiple occasions to get the domain name to correctly map  using Adobe's Business Catalyst nameservers.
    I've verified with Google Domains that their process is setup correctly to map to my site, so it indicates the issue is on how I've configured my Adobe Muse/Business Catalyst side of things.
    So far, every attempt at publishing the site via Adobe Muse has worked with its extension at http://mattandsangeeta.businesscatalyst.com/index.html, and I'm able to login into my Admin page from Adobe Muse immediately following publishing. However, when I try to login directly to the Adobe Business Catalyst page, it takes me to an admin link for www.mattandsangeeta.com that is broken.
    To summarize: My published domain isn't being mapped correctly and I hit a dead end every time I try to login into the Business Catalyst website.
    Thanks for your feedback and support in advance,
    Matt

    Hi
    As I checked the site loads fine with domain Matt And Sangeeta . I tried to get to site manage area using Administration Login  and I see it works fine as well. I would suggest you to please try clearing browser cache and cookies and check if that helps.

  • Email through business catalyst with multiple websites.

    Hello, the first website I designed in Muse and uploaded to Business Catalyst allowed me to have email through Business Catalyst. However, the second website I uploaded does not allow me to do this. Am I missing something or is it not an option to have multiple email addresses with multiple websites?
    Thanks!

    Thank you for contacting us
    In this case, you will need to make sure of the site plan that is upgraded for that site. If that is WebHosting/Webbasics , it will not allow any BC integrated emails as mentioned here -> http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html
    For an exact infromaton, I would suggest to either contact us directly on chat here http://helpx.adobe.com/contact.html?product=business-catalyst&topic=using-my-product-or-se rvice -> Click on 'I still need help' -> Chat Now for an instant information or submit a ticket via Help & Support in the BC Admin console with more details.

  • 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?

    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.

  • 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.

    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.

  • Need to create a searchable employee directory in Muse.  How can I do this using Business Catalyst?

    I have been tasked with updating our firm website, and have no prior web design experience.  Muse seems like a great option, but I understand that Muse has no database capabilities.  I was advised that I could find a way to incorporate a searchable employee directory (database) via Business Catalyst. Are there any links that show how to do this?

    Thanks, Adam.  I think this looks like a good option for us.  Here is our current, existing website, which I am tasked with updating:
    www.bstz.com
    Would you mind taking a look at the attorney directory, and confirming that the BC Meet the Team will allow me to create essentially the same sort of directory, with search fields, photos and cv?  I'm sure it will, but I just need confirmation before I go too much further down the design path.
    Right now I am just on trial Adobe Creative Cloud membership, so I was able to download and experiment with Muse.  I believe the cost to continue this would be about $15/month.  If I join Business Catalyst with eCommerce membership, would that be in addition to the Adobe Creative Cloud membership?  I'm going to need to give a proposal to my partners, and I want to make sure I am accurately stating the monthly costs.  We currently have our own in-house server, and I want to be able to rationalize moving away from that.
    Thank you for your continuing expertise.

  • Business Catalyst and Creative Cloud not Working

    I have a $2000 Premiere Business Catalyst Partner account.  I set up my BC account and my Adobe ID years ago under different e-mails.  When I tried to integrate my BC and Adobe Creative Cloud e-mails I got an error saying that I have to create a new Adobe ID.
    I created a new ID.  Now with Dreamweaver I'm getting the following error that I don't have a Partner Account!!!  I do have a partner account, it's just under a different e-mail.  Am I to stomach the fact that I will not be ablt to use my BC account on Creative Cloud simply because they are under 2 different e-mails?  I've been waiting to use BC and Creative Cloud for months, what a dissapointment.  This takes all the appeal out of Dreamweaver, Muse, and more, if I can't use Business Catalyst with Creative Cloud.  Please help....

  • Muse, Dreamweaver or Business Catalyst?

    I have inherited an old Business Catalyst website that needs a lot of updating. Should I use Muse or Dreamweaver to tackle it, or stick with the BC interface?
    I'm primarily a graphic designer, rather than a web developer, so would prefer a wysiwyg approach but can delve into code if necessary.
    The site has lots of old material which as far as I can tell is not being displayed currently. How can I most easily discover the interdependencies between the different components, in order to clean it up?

  • Can I design something in Muse and somehow get the HTML text fro it to plug into Business Catalyst to make a newsletter?

    I guess since I don't know html, I was wondering if I could create a "page" in muse and somehow get the "HTML" text from it so I can plug that text into a Business Catalyst E-Mail Marketing Campaign template. since I am struggling so much with modifying one of Business Catalysts established templates.
    I made my website with muse and I host it through Business Catalyst with a webMarketing Plan.
    Thanks in advance,

    There is no direct way to achieve this but you may try a workaround which may work but would require testing on your end.
    Create the site in Muse and publish to BC , master page will be included in template section. So in your published site , Page template will show you design from Muse.
    Now from Partner portal , you can select the site to create email campaign template but please note that creating a template from PP will remove the default email campaign templates on BC end.
    After creating the campaign template from PP , login to your site and create email campaign and in template section you will get the option to select the template which you created from PP.
    Not an ideal way but can be used as a workaround.
    Thanks,
