Creating sitemap for webpage in new iWeb...

I am having a lot of trouble getting a sitemap to generate for my website that I built using iWeb.
It will only generate a map for the very first page and none of the rest of them. Has anyone else had this issue?

Hi!
I've used the workaround of putting text links on my start page to all other pages on my site and so far so good. I do the same for album pages. Meaning, I place text links to all albums on the bottom of the main page. I do not get my blog entries for the sitemap, but I can deal without it. I looked at your website and didn't see links to your other pages appart from those on the navigation bar. Check my website at http://web.mac.com/fjguerra and look at the bottom of the pages called Inicio, Fotos and UNESCO WYF.
As for the sitemap not being read by Google, give it some time. If it still doesn't work, try generating it with this page http://www.xml-sitemaps.com/ it has worked well for me.
Hope it helps!
Best regards,
FG

New iWeb theme templates for sale

I thought I saw several new iWeb theme templates for sale several weeks ago about the time the 1.1 themes came out. They were priced at around $12 or $15 dollars or so. Anyone know where they are?
Thanks,
Chuck

Hi Chuck!
It's been a long time since I've seen you around! Welcome back.
Suzanne Boben is the queen of the iWeb templates. She sells her custom created templates on her website:

Take a look. Hope it's what you were looking for. I know she's been busy with her latest creation "Aerolite". Good luck.

Buy & Sell Tools for new iWeb site

Hello,
I've had a Hompage website business for sometime, but with iWeb and the fact that somehow my business can now be Googled has made me take a hard look at what I created and how I am going to shape it into a sucessful small business.
My biggest concern is that I do not have any real buy & sell tools to go with my business. I ran across a mention in this forum about RegNow, but I honestly cannot figure out what they actually do. I want some legitimate enterprise to provide the tools I need so my credit card customers can buy from me. I would also like for my customers to have the ability of tracking their order as well.
Any comments or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

You could just set-up a Paypal on your site and that would be easy and effective. Look here to find out how to get a Paypal button on your site:

If you shipped through UPS or Fed-Ex you could e-mail your customers a tracking number so they can track their order.
Check out http://iWebTricks.com for other iWeb tips and place your mark on my Guestmap (that I just figured out how to open in a new custom-sized window) while you're there.

HI
I was trying to take my Mac air to factory default settings.
I've done all that it says in the documment i was following, and them during the process it asked me the APPLE ID.
I put the apple id i have in my iphone. But it's not the one... it's said that i don't have any OSX associated with it... so it can not install the OSX.
So what can i do?

How do I create folders for variuos apps i.e health, news etc.

How do I create folders for variuos apps i.e health, news, sports etc.

Tap and hold down on an app con until it begins to "wiggle", then drag one app icon on top of another app icon to create the folder. Move as many apps as you like into that folder. When you are done, tap the home button and the apps will stop wiggling.
You can also name the folder whatever you want to in the white text field that will pop up when the folder is created.

Creating forms for Iweb sites

MY question is about creating forms for iweb sites.
How do you do it?
I think I read somewere that you can't do this with iweb,
so I downloaded a free trial of rapidweaver, which will give me 3 pages for
the free trial, but it says you need php.
Which I don't know if I have php on my computer, my mac5 os x,
and I am not sure what php is.
If any one could explain how I can create forms on my iweb site
in a easy to understand point form.
That would be great!

Well I am certainly willing to try, if you could
explain how to do this
Thanks for your reply.
blueform,
If you found my first post to you helpful, please mark it as such. That way people will have an easier time searching for/with a similar question about this topic.
Okay, I can't go into all the dynamics of the process as each ISP may vary enough to make my description unusable. In other words, what works with my ISP may not work with yours. You'll need to check out your ISPes position and requirements as far as this goes.
The first and most important thing to check out is does your ISP allow you to use CGI scripting such as PERL or PHP. Many small locally based ISPes allow this feature. Some large ISPes in Canada such as Bell's Sympatico give you Web space but do not allow scripting.
Next, unless you are an accomplished programmer you need to find (ideally) a free script that allows you to e-mail a form. I generally recommend something from Matt's Script Archive The scripts are are simple, come with instructions and work fairly well. There is also PHP Junkyard. I use one of their scripts for a message board I have.
Be forewarned, there is a learning curve. Also, if your ISP permits these scripts, you will need an FTP client application to upload them once you have made any necessary modifications.
As an afterthought, you might Google around and see if anyone provides a service that might suit your needs. Usually in those cases all you need to do is enter some HTML code into your iWeb page. This is not a drag-n-drop process and requires some "under the hood" work. One last point. Most of the scripts that I've dealt with will require an e-mail address to send the completed forms. If all is done according to instructions, Spammers will never see the address (you set the permissions for the file that contains your e-mail address so that only the owner can read that particular file; the owner being you). Does this give you an idea of what is involved?

To create req for new BOM component

hello all,
i confirm the order and now i need to add one more component to the header material for the same order.
how can i create requirement for new BOM component.
what i done is i 1st cancel the confirmation. then go for read PP mater data. after that should i run the MRP for header material to create planned order for new BOM component?
regards

Dear,
If you have execute any transaction like GI confirmation then read PP master data will not work.
Best way you can cancel the confirmation and reveres the good issue by 262 movement type. Then do TECO to the order all reservation get deleted.
Then update the BOM with new component and run MRP with planning mode-3 delete and recreated. It will create planned order then convert it to production and go ahead.

New to Pshop, trying to make gradient drop shadow for webpage

I am a newbie, just got Pshop and watching every tutorial I can find but can't seem to figure out how to make this graphic. This is a background image for one of my websites (where I did not create the graphic). Can anyone point me to a good tutorial or walk me through how to create this for a new site I am working on? Thanks, Gary

or... you could use CSS3 drop shadows on the containing element and skip the need for background images all together.
otherwise I would defer to the list just provided... there seems to be some good tuts in there on how to do what you are looking for...
the hickup you will run into is fading the shadow out at the bottom... this will require seperating the fx layer out and masking it off...
or just masking the layer itself since the your background is the same color as the element.

Using 'Multisite for iWeb' and the new iWeb 09

I use multisite for iWeb by Clarkwood software to publish multiple sites I have designed with iWeb. Now that the NEW iWEB 09 has the essentially same ability (to upload/manage multiple iWeb sites) I was wondering if anyone else is using 'Multisite for iWeb' and has ran into any problems when upgrading?
Thanks!
-JKP

With the disastrous introduction of iWeb '08, I rebuilt all my websites on new, blank domain files.
I have 26 sites with each domain file in a separate folder. These are kept in a in a folder - iWeb - in a second dock.
I can launch any site with two mouse clicks - far quicker than launching Multisite or iWebsites.
I have dealt with many instances of domain file corruption in this forum and it doesn't seem to matter which method is used - splitting domain files, iWebsites or Multisite.
I followed the advice of Cyclosaurus and Suzanne of 11 Mystics and have had no problems at all.
I'm not throwing any accusations at any of the above methods of handling multiple domains - I'm just not prepared to risk using them.

Exclude pages from Create PDF from Webpage?

My organization wants to use the Create PDF from Webpage functionality in Acrobat to keep a record of our site. However, the PDF Acrobat created using the "Entire Site" setting includes all PDFs linked to the site as well as other pages (for individual news items, e.g.) that we do not want to include. Is there a way to exclude pages or links based on specific criteria when creating a PDF from a Website?

You can determine how far down in the website you want to go. You can require the capture mechanism to stay on the server as the picture says. But if you get the entire website, that is what you get. So if you ask you website designer to make your website in a way that everything you want is one level deep and everything you don't want is on the 2nd or 3rd level you are set.

Aha! Workaround for site corruption in iWeb '06 '08 updates

I think I have found a workaround for a problem that's been plaguing me and no doubt other people who've bought iWeb '08 and used it to update an older site from iWeb '06 (skip to bottom for solution). This is relevant even after the 2.0.1 update that Apple shipped today.
My iWeb project contains multiple sites, which I use to group photo albums. I found repeatedly that after I updated the site, made a change, and saved the project, a lot of the bitmap image files needed for pages with photo albums or other graphical embellishments were just gone from the project. Looking into the Domain.sites package (Finder: Show Package Contents) confirmed this - all the .jpg, .png files etc. just got trashed the first time I did a save (although the pages all looked ok after the upgrade but before the save!)
At first I thought that the last site added to my multi-site project was spared at the expense of other 'sites' visible in the sidebar. Then I realized that only pages that had been viewed in iWeb after the update were spared! Generally I would view the pages in the bottom/last site as these were the ones I was currently working on - and these were spared.
So I did an experiment - I opened (yet another) copy of my iWeb '06 backup in iWeb '08, and after the update but before saving I clicked on every page (thereby viewing it) in the whole site - and I have around 50 pages in about ten sites. Then I made a change to a single page, and saved the project. The fact that I had viewed all the pages seemed to make the problem go away! There were no missing photos or embedded bitmaps!
*So the short version of the problem is:* any pages that have not been viewed within iWeb after updating a Domain.sites file (what I call the project) from '06 to '08 will have all associated bitmap image files deleted.
*The solution:* immediately after updating the site, and before making any edits or saving, you must click on the sidebar entry for every page in the whole project (to view it in the editing window). In my case this meant also clicking on every entry of a blog, to display it.
Conclusion: there must be some book-keeping of the database that supports iWeb that is not synchronized with the persistent store on disk unless a page is actually viewed.
Hope this works for others, and that Apple gets a proper fix out ASAP. The 2.0.1 update issued today did not fix the problem for me - only the above workaround did.
Rick

Hi Rick,
Sounds like my story, too. I have had some time to experiment on two different Macs (one G4 and one MacBook Pro). After losing the formatting and photos on one Mac after upgrading, I decided that I was going to test some theories on the other Mac prior to upgrading to iWeb '08. This is what I found - and what worked:
Test 1:
MacBookPro on iLife '06. I upgraded to iLife '08. I opened iWeb and noted that it did not recognize my original domain: iWeb '08 asked me to locate it or create a new one. I selected "choose" and selected the domain that I had created in iWeb '06 (user/library/application support/iweb). The site opened, performed the required update and opened up. I noticed immediately that some of the photos did not appear on some of the pages. Each time iWeb '08 was closed and reopened, more photos, sometimes different photos, would disappear. All that would remain was a grey placecard with a question mark in the middle (and the warning that the links were now missing). I even went as far as putting the photos back into position, saving and closing iWeb '08. But when I opened iWeb '08 again, the photos were missing...again.
I rebuilt the entire site.
Test 2:
Powerbook G4 on iLife '06. BEFORE updating to iLife '08, I used the original iWeb '06 to publish the entire site to a local folder on my HD (as a security measure). Next, I created a copy of my domain (another security measure) and moved the original domain from 'user/library/application support/iweb' to my desk top. I then proceeded to upgrade to iLife '08. After upgrading, I opened iWeb '08 and received the notification that iWeb '08 needed to either create a domain or I needed to choose a domain. Since I moved my domain out of 'library/application support/iweb', I elected to create a new domain and saved it to the same location (library/application support/iweb).
The new domain was created, iWeb '08 opened, I selected a template, then saved it and closed the program.
Using Finder, I examined the new domain just created by iWeb '08. Using the 'get info' command, I noticed that the new domain has the extension ".sites2." The original domain created in iWeb '06 has the extension ".sites."
I took my original iWeb '06 domain and used the finder "get info" command to manually change the extension from ".sites" to ".sites2." I got the warning asking me if I was sure I wanted to use ".sites2," and I selected yes, use ".sites2."
Using the (original) domain just modified in the last step, now with the extension ".sites2", I inserted it into the 'user/library/application support/iweb' folder, replacing the domain file created during the start up of iWeb '08.
I then opened iWeb '08.
After a brief moment, iWeb '08 opened my domain revealing all four of my original web sites, complete and intact. After iWeb '08 updated the domain, I saved it, closed iWeb '08 and reopened it a few times before I was satisfied that EVERYTHING was working fine.
In conclusion, I found that by changing the domain (created in iWeb '06) file extension to ".sites2", I was able to use iWeb '08 to successfully open it, complete and intact.
I hope you may still have the opportunity to try this on your Mac. I also hope that you have good results.
Cheers, Bryan

Movie freezes on my new iWeb site

Just tried to publish my movie (1G) (new user) to my new iWeb site (new user)... It takes forever to load (is the file too big?) and then when finally loaded it freezes with ever other photo or so and will not play smoothly. It's been frustrating and I would really appreciate your help! Thanks!

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Yes, a 1 G movie is way too big for a web site. How did you create the movie? Have you looked into ways to reduce it's size. Quicktime Player can reduce a movie's size to meet several criteria as shown in the File->Export for Web settings window:
Click to view full size
That can reduce it somewhat. If you bring the movie into iMovie you can export it to a MobileMe gallery in multiple sizes to fit the viewer's internet connection speed and device.
Click to view full size
The resulting gallery can be inserted into a web page using iFrame code and an HTML snippet as in this demo page: Adding a MMe Gallery from iMovie 09. This is predicated on you having a MobileMe account where you're hosting the site.
A way to add the movie to a page and have the page load fully without having to have the movie load are demonstrated here:
Opening Item in a New, Precisely Sized Window
QT Movies via Export for Web in QT Player
Still another alternative would be to convert the movie to flash and use that. Flash conversions are generally much smaller than Quicktime files. You can learn more about that at:
http://roddymckay.com/VisualMedia/FlashVideo.html
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWeb_Movies.html
The bottom line is: 1 GB is way too large.

How to copy iWeb blog to new iWeb site?

Hi Folks,
I am able to successfully move, via drag and drop, my blog from an old iWeb site to a new one in iWeb.
However, what I want to do is to preserve the old blog as a backup, and them start updating and chagging the blog contet in the new iWeb site. I actually use the blog on my site as a way to list courses.
I've tried to copy files in the iWeb site files, and then reopen iWeb, and I can't see the blog page listed.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Inoshi

To be able to drop and drag from one site to another in iWeb, you firstly need to have iWeb 09. You then need to open the relevant domain.sites file and you need to have the sites underneath each other, so Site1 above and then Site2 below and all you do is just click on the Blog page on Site1 and just drag it over and down to Site2.
You can't do it individually, but you need to drag from one site to another.
I would also advise that you don't use the iWeb blog, as it is not that good and there are better alternatives out there.
You might like to look at some new software too such as EverWeb - http://www.everwebapp.com. It is very like iWeb, but is actively supported and developed whereas for the last 2 years, iWeb has not been and has not been sold by Apple either.
If you wanted a better blogging system, you could transfer your whole website into WordPress.org. You need to install it on a server at your web host, but it might serve you better and you can create a blog it you want to and you can extend it with the use of plugins. Would not take too long to re-create depending on the size of your site and it is relatively easy to use compared to the other CMS's.
Think about changing before iWeb becomes unusable.

New iWeb User needs help regarding multiple sites

As a new user please excuse me if this has an obvious answer.
I have 4 web site, very simple, that I have used Frontpage with for years.
I want to make new websites with iWeb but I am worried I may screw something up.
I have already created one new iWeb Site and it comes up in the left hand pane as SITE 1.
I have used that for ages and use a seperate FTP program to publish to my independent Server with no problem. I usually publish to a folder first then use the FTP software to publish to the Server and its fine
The trouble I have now is probably becasue I don't know how to use iWeb properly but I'll try to explain.
I made another website and it creates SITE 2 in the left hand pane and I have produced a few pages for that site.
My problem is that when i go to publish to a folder for the 2nd site, it automatically does the first site as well ?
In most other programs (like Frontpage) you have to open the individual sites on their own so you can keep everything seperate but iWeb seems to put them all together.
I now have a folder (on my Apple) with SITE 1 and all its files and in another seperate folder (which I made just for SITE 2) have SITE 1 and SITE 2 and I'm scared to delete the copy of SITE 1 in case it deletes all of it !!
I wish there was a simple 'OPEN SITE' command in iWeb where you cna pick the opne you want to work on but it doesn't seem to be there.
If I am missing something obvious I'd be grateful of some advice becasue I really would like to get the other sites made up.

I'll try to make this simple!
Lets say that you have a website already and you named the site Family.
You decide you want to create another website for example, My Pets.
First create a 2 folders a place them where you will remember where they are.
One of the new folders will be called (Family) (of course both folders are empty at this time. The second folder you created you will name (MY PETS)Ok you with me so far?
Now lets suppose you have the iweb open to the (Family) website. Quit iweb...
Go to users/Library/Application Support/iweb. You will see a iweb icon that will say (Domain.Sites2. Drag the domain.sites2 to the (family) folder you just created. Now for your new site that you want to start. (MY PETS) OPEN iweb. You should now be prompted to choose a template. That's because you removed the domain.sites2 out and put it into another folder.
iweb thinks your are starting a new project and prompts you to choose a template as described earlier. Any pictures you add you should keep them in the separate folder in case you need edit or if you accidentally delete them. For example on the (my Pets site) any pictures you have there you will have in the same folder as the my pets folder you created. What I do is I make additional folders within the site folder I created so I can find things faster. Pets,I would have a pets folder and so on. Do the same for the other folder.(Family)
Now you created your new website (MY PETS) and you decide you want to go back and work on the (Family) website. Quit iweb. and then go to User/Library/Application Support/iweb... REMOVE the Domain.sites2 (MY PETS) and go to other folder(Family) and drag that Domain.site2 where you previously removed the other domain.sites2.. Open iweb and there it is.
Tip: When you place a Domain.sites2 into one of the folders you created it is always good to copy the domain.site2 and paste it into the same folder.When you copy and paste a Domain.sites2 the copy of it will say (Domain copy.sites2) This is a good practice to make because if you forget to close a iweb and drag a domain.sites2 out and replace it with another site. iweb will overwrite it when you save and quit. If that happens Just go the the copy you made and drag it to the: users/Library/Application Support/iweb.
once you drag it to iweb folder click on it once and press enter. You will see the text Domain Copy highlighted. Just delete the word (COPY) make sure it looks like this when your done... Domain.sites2
Open iweb and there it is.
Sorry about all the detail as this is a bad habit of mine, but I hope it helps.
