HELP!!! can't get my site uploaded to the host due to some coding problem.

Question

have publish to folder from my iweb. intended to upload files to other hosting company. Downloaded Cyberduck to FTP file for the uploading. But have a problem as the hosting staff says that my files are loaded correctly but doesn't show probably due to some coding needs to be done to index.html. I've no idea how to do coding and the staff could not assist me either. Can someone help me please?

Answer 1

My thought was that this happens when you have some kind of naming conflict that interferes with the separate index.html page that iWeb creates on publishing.
You need to keep the name of your site short, so name your site something like Site or perhaps TT for short. Rather than naming any of your pages index, name them Home, Welcome or whatever fits with your site. Don't use underscores in a name. If you have a longer page name, then just enter it with the spaces and iWeb will do the rest for you on publication.
When you click on publish to a folder, iWeb will create one folder with your site name on it that contains all the folders and files for your site. It also creates a separate index.html file and you need to upload both of these via ftp.
With Cyberduck, link to your space and click on action at the top and upload. Upload the whole of your site folder (don't upload the pages separately, or they will be in the incorrect order and may not be seen) and then your index.html page and then place these items into the public_html folder or it could be named www and your website should then be live.
