Cannot create new pages/sites in iWeb '08

I know this has been brought up so many times before. I read ALL of the posts.
I am unable to create any new pages or sites in iWeb'08. The plus sign is greyed out and command-N does nothing.
Here's what I've done:
Deleted all files associated with iWeb and re-installed from the original DVD.
Tried using the iWeb icon in iPhoto and iMovie (total of 20 times each). Nothing happens. The photos do not show up in iPhoto and I still can't do anything.
Can anyone please suggest something else to try. I have an existing website that I prefer to use iWeb for, but I cannot update it until I can use iWeb.
I can't believe Apple would release something this bad.

Email me at
[email protected]
and I'll send you a domain.sites2 file.
When you get it, quit iWeb, put it into Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb and double click it to see if iWeb will launch and let you build a site.

Cannot create new page nor website and worse cannot edit existing websites

When I click on File in the menu the only options that work are Setup Google AdSense and Page Setup...
All other options are grey and cannot be accessed. This means that I cannot edit my existing websites which is a major problem.
Any idea? Reinstalling iWeb did not help.

Creating new pages in iWeb

Could someone assist please with creating new pages within a page - that is if I need to follow from
a previous page with in context stuff, but I don't want a NEW page with a NEW page heading at the top.
I just want to put more stuff up under an existing page heading and using an arrow to go to new page
all in the same section. Rather than filling the top with new page headings. Sorry if I cant explain it better! Thanks - Gareth

This works for your site because it is mostly photos and you have used the Photo Page, fine. However, what you need to remember is that many people just have ordinary websites without photos who might still want to use sub pages and this method will not work for them because there are not forward and back links.
I have sub pages on my own website and basically, I created an About Us page. I have some text there, but then I have something that says find out more about these people. I did not want these other pages displayed in the main nav bar, so I took them all out and what I have done on the About Us page is use a shape with the name of the person in it and created a hyperlink to that page. You click on the relevant shape and this takes you to the page for that person - on this page I have then created a shape with Back and Forward in it - the Back hyperlink if clicked on takes you back to the About Us page and the Forward hyperlink takes you to the page for the next person etc.
If you want to create sub pages on an ordinary web site, then this is how you need to do it - you need the links on the pages that are not in the main nav bar to be able to get around the site.
You don't have those links on your site, but as it is mainly photos then this does not matter and works for you, as you go from gallery to gallery. This will not work for everyone though - horses for courses! What works for one might not work for another.

How do I make it so my client can edit Links in business catalyst when they create new pages?

Okay so essentially I have built a site in Muse uploaded to business catalyst and I've setup a site template so that the client can create new pages as each new course arrives, but how do I get the link from the homepage to link to the new page? basically I need the link to be editable.
What would be ideal is a kind of portfolio layout where there is a thumbnail and a new page but for my client to be able to add a new project adn it would create a thumbnail on the homepage and a new page that he can edit. Does anyone know of something like that possible in Business catalyst?

Hi
Editing with Business Catalyst only works with image or text editing , we cannot add new page or page items using in browser editing.
However, you can manage the site from BC end when your client and login to admin and add pages, modify etc, but if you re-publish the site from Muse then then changes will be overwritten.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Created a web site in iweb, i have a domain through godaddy, what resource can I use as host?

Created a web site in iweb. I have a domain name through GoDaddy, What resource should I use to make site public?

I would agree that it helps the newcomer to FTP to have a hosting service whose tech support understand the unique structure of iWeb created sites. I have lost count of the number of users who have asked me to sort out problems created by tech support employed by numerous hosting services - including the mighty GoDaddy.
A lot of tech support people don't seem to bother to look at the form and function of the iWeb index.html files and advise users that they have to rename their home page to "index". While this holds true for most websites, it certainly doesn't apply to iWeb.
Its not "simply the html and css files". How many users come unstuck when they forget about the feed.xml?
People who hand out advice in this forum about uploading files via "Cyberduck" tend to miss out the part about the importance of maintaining the site structure by uploading the whole folder created by iWeb plus the external index.html.
They also may not have been around back when I first announced that I uploaded the contents of the iWeb folder to get rid of the site name in the URL. I was shot down in flames by the iWeb "experts" and told that this was impossible - even although I was obviously doing it!
Although this method of uploading the files has become accepted practice in the iWeb community I wouldn't recommend it to those who are new to FTP unless they have help from a tech support person who actually understands the problems involved and can point out the downside. Those who claim that it is "simple" and "easy" have obviously forgotten the first time that they tried it!
A lot of the people who come to this forum for help with FTP end up in a complete mess due to the conflicting and inadequate advice they get due to the fact that the "adviser" hasn't a clue about the hosting account structure and can't view the actual files. In many cases, I have had to go into the users hosting account and sort out the mess created by bad advice and ignorance. This should really be done by the hosting service's tech support but, in many cases, they helped create the problem in the first place.
The mere fact that an iWeb user has to come to this forum for help with FTP seems to suggest that their hosting service has inferior tech support.

I cant create new web-site

hello,
i downloaded some iWeb templates and installed them. they work so far.
but since i added those templates i cant do several things:
-i cant create a blank web-site
-i cant create any web-site with my other user accounts
i got 3 users on my mbp. only 1 user allows me to create new web-sites. if i log in with another user (i also tried to create a new user) then i only get a grey + in the lower left corner of my iWeb. grey means i cant click it.
i deleted iweb preferences already. what else can i do to solve that?
is it a good idea to delete iweb from aplication folder and install it again? is there a full installer?
thx 4 any help, ichi

Can you do this in some user accounts and not others, as the case for the original poster, or is this a problem across the board?
If all the controls are greyed out, the easiest potential fix is to open iPhoto, select some pictures/and or an album there and click on the iWeb button at the bottom of the iPhoto window. This should "force" iWeb to create a photo page.
It that doesn't work, you will need to try to download one of the iWeb upgrades. Which version of iWeb are you using?

Clicking "page from template" does not allow me create new pages

I stared designing a site with the trial version of CS4. Of course it involved a lot of trial and error, creating a page and canceling it again etc. At last I was able to design the index page and a few other pages, but suddenly just about 7 days into the trial period, the template started looking different; not displaying the images and displaying the home page article in an improper way. I also discovered that I could not create new pages by selecting file\new. When the new document dialogue page opens and I select "page from template" and then select a site I am working on, nothing shows in the items list. I only see the message "no items". Moreover, the "create" (new page) button is no more a click-able area.
I even tried it by proceeding as if I wanted to design a new site. I click file\new\page from template\the site, but when it comes to the stage where I should select "2 column liquid, left sidebar, header and footer" after clicking “page from template” I don't see anything in the items column. It only tells me "no item."
I thought this problem was due to the fact that I was using the trial version and that the trial version was limited in the number of new pages I could create. So I bought the full version. Alas! I discovered that changed nothing. Right now am stuck. Do you have any suggestion?

I think you're are confusing DW Templates with CSS Page Designs and Starter Pages.
Templates are a DW proprietary device. They permit you to have sitewide elements such as common menus, headers and footers on all your pages along with Editable Regions for page specific content (i.e. the stuff that changes on every page).
DW Templates looks like this (notice the Template Editable Comments):
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Can't get Contribute to Create New Page

Can't get Contribute to Create New Page
--Have 'tried' all options for 'new page' - button, File>,
and Ctl + N
--Have tried via each of my different websites
--CAN Edit existing pages!
--Established myself as Administrator, and Publisher
--Downloaded "Update" & ran "Repair" option
STILL Can't open a "New Page"!!!???!!!
Can anyone help?

I don't suppose you ever found an answer to this problem?
I've got exactly the same on a laptop: Desktop is absolutely
fine.
As in your case the software works 100%, but you simply can't
create a new page (across all sites). Crazy - no error message, no
nothing.
I did make the fatal error of installing a demo version of
the software before buying the real software, so I did have to go
through 6 pages of A4 instructions to try to get the read software
to install... perhaps this is a vestige of that???

Cannot create new folders in Outlook

I just bought a new PC computer. I installed MSFT Office Professional Plus 2010. I opened Outlook and added in (i) the pst folder I had set up from my previous Vista
computer (also with Outlook 2010), (ii) my hotmail account, (iii) my at&t/yahoo account and (iv) my gmail account. I cannot create new folders in any of them.
When I right click anywhere in the navigation pane and select "New Folder..." I get the following error message:
"Outlook cannot read the registry information.
-Close and restart Outlook.
-Reinstall Outlook
-Reinstall Microsoft Exchange or other e-mail system."
I tried all three, including removing and reinstalling Office and removing all of the email accounts/pst files and re-adding and still have the problem.
If I try to right-click properties on any of the accounts, I get the same error message, with the following additional language first:
"Cannot display 'General' page. This page will remain visible, but is not available."
Not sure what is left to try.
Appreciate any ideas.

Hi
Thank you for using
Microsoft Office for IT Professionals Forums.
From your description, If the PC from clean install, you can follow these steps to test this issue.
1.
Start the Outlook in safe mode,
Press and hold the CTRL key,
and then click Outlook.
If the problem does not occur in the safe mode, this issue might be related to some third-party add-ins in the Office program, we can try to disable them.
2.
Create a New profile & PST file to test this issue
If this problem does not occur in the new Outlook profile & PST, the old Outlook profile is corrupted. We can delete that and use a new Outlook profile.
3.
Make sure the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Office
key permissions to allow full permissions to all users

Hi. I've added a new page to my iWeb '08 version 2.0.4 website but can't seem to select the top menu pages to make a rollover color change. I can select them on the original pages. What am I doing wrong?

Can not create new page from template

I have been working on a new site for the last couple of
weeks and have created several pages using a basic template.
All of the child pages of this template still update when
changes are made to it, however I can no long create new children
from this template.
Any ideas as to what the problem might be.
THanks
Clint

> It is basically just creating a copy of my template, and
not linking to it in

> This allows me to change any section of the html.
my guess is that you are opening the .dwt template file and
doing a "Save
As". That page is not a "child" page of the template.
>
> I want to be able to create new pages off this template
and have it work like
> all of the first pages I created.
dw menu-->File-->New
in the new files dialog box, click the Templates tab
from list in left, click This Site Name
from list in right, pick This Template
make sure x is in box to Update if template changes
click okay
save file with filename you want to within this local site
folder.
add content to within the editable areas

Use a Custom Page Layout When Creating [[new pages]] in Enterprise Wiki

I have followed a few different blogs and I've been able to create a custom wiki content type and create a new page layout based off of that content type. I've also set my site so that my new layout is the default page layout. This works when creating
new pages on the site but when i try to create a new wiki page --> [[new page]], I'm still getting the typical blank wiki template. How on earth do i get my page layout to sync with creating a new wiki page?

Hi,
For your issue, go to Site Actions > Site Settings > Page layouts and site templates (Under Look and Feel).
Pages in this site can only use the following layouts: add custom wiki template.
Select default page layout: choose custom wiki template.
Besides, here is a blog, you can use as a reference:

Project Server default groups when we create new project site

Hi,
When we create new project site in project server 2013 in site settings page some default groups are already present with some default permissions and some default members.
Interesting thing is that the members of these group are same when ever we create a new site.
Can you please help me understand, what these groups are, how they get created and how they are having some default members. Where are these members coming from.
Our project server is having project server permission mode.
Thanks,
Bhawna.

I briefly searched the MSTechNet but was not able to find a succinct article on this point for 2013, if someone has that, can they pls share. However, if you read most of the articles under this area,
you get the idea.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/fp161361(v=office.15).aspx
From 2010 this applies and is still "similar"
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc197668(v=office.14).aspx
In 2013, for every Project Site (connected SharePoint site as it is now called in 2013), 2 Site specific SharePoint security groups are created: "SiteProjectName Project Managers (Project Web App Synchronized)"
& "SiteProjectName Team Members (Project Web App Synchronized)".
And Web Administrators (Project Web App Synchronized) is also created.
In addition, the default SharePoint groups for: Site Members, Site Owners, Site Visitors are present but remain empty.
Project Server controls the creation of these groups and the membership. The membership is a "formula" that goes something like this: If the user is the Project Owner then put them in the PM group.
If the user is a PWA Administrator, then put them in the Administrators group. If the user is a team member on the project, then put them in the Team Members group. There are other factors like RBS that are used in the formula.
Reading the descriptions of the groups reveals that for Project Managers =
Users who have Published this project or who have Save Project Permission in PWA.
For Team Members = Users who have assignments in this project in PWA.
I believe these are the old 2010 descriptions and actually Team Members = anyone who is part of the Build Team even if no assignments.
Further complicating matters is that if you are a site collection admin, you will see all the groups, for PWA and for all the project site (b/c you are actually seeing the site collection groups).
But only the ones mentioned above apply specifically to this project site.
Hope this sheds some light on the topic,
Thanks, Eric S. Pcubed

Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow.

i am getting an error and some pages "Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow. " --
using report builder 9, i have a fairly simple report - that contains 4 subreports.
for some pages i get the error - it seems if there is more data than would fit on 1 page.
smaller pages work fine.
the subreports are all simple queries and dumps....
containing page header, column header, detail sections.
page header has just a text bar of the name of the section.
column header has the field names
detail section has the data - 1 row for each row in the recordset.
nothing i do seems to change getting "Infinite loop creating new page due to column header overflow. " on a page with more than 15-20 records returned.
any ideas would be appreciated.

How to create new Page Format

Hello
i want to create new page format in sap script
can any body guide to crate this & how to assign this
thnks in advance

Hi Nitin,
You can create a new page format by transaction code SPAD. Here you will have to create a cutomised page format for ex: 'ZPAGE'.
After this you will have to create a format type 'ZPAGE'. Assign the page format 'ZPAGE' to format type 'ZPAGE'. Pls make sure that both the names are identical.
Once you do that you will have to assign the format type ZPAGE to the printer which you want to use.
Now you can use this page format in your script.
Hope this helps.
