Host Wordpress sites without using DW or Muse

I develop sites for Wordpress using Coda and I am wondering if it's possible to set them up as Business Catalyst sites that I can install Wordpress on and access through Coda's FTP.
I supposedly have 5 free pages I can host with my Creative Cloud membership, but it just tells me to download Dreamweaver or Muse and use one of those programs to push the sites to Business Catalyst.
I would be ok with going into Dreamweaver once to set up the account, if nessecary, but all I want to do is develop in Coda and upload the files using its built in FTP. For one of my new projects I am considering using Git as well, can this be used with Business Catalyst?

Importing blog posts from an external blog
Follow these steps to import the blog posts from an existing TypePad and Word Press into the blog on your site:
Export all of the existing posts from TypePad or WordPress.
Log into the Admin Console and create a blog. Choose Website > Blog > Create a New Blog.
Choose Admin > Import Data. Select the Blog Import option. From the menu that appears, select the blog you created in step #2.
After selecting the blog, another menu appears. It contains the list of external blog engines that are supported by the blog import feature. Choose the Typepad / WordPress option.
Next, you'll upload the data. Select the exported TypePad or WordPress file and click Next. Remember, the preview feature is not available when importing blog posts.
Warning: Double-check that you are importing the correct file before clicking Import. You must only import a blog once. If you import it again, it will result in a duplicate set of the posts and comments being added to the system.
After you import the blog, visit the live site in a new browser window. Navigate to the blog and check that the blog posts have imported correctly. If not, delete the blog and repeat the entire process again, begining with step #2

    How do I add video to be hosted directly on my MUSE site without using a third party like Vimeo / You tube etc ?

    Hi,
    You can consider html video tag to do this. You will need to add it in Muse using, Object-insert as html. Detailed instructions can be viewed here

  • How do I publish my site without using MobileMe?

    I have been publishing an iWeb designed website to my own domain name for more than a year without using MobileMe.
    Had a computer repair done and Apple did a clean install. I am now rebuilding the site because my files don't talk to iWeb after reinstalling the software. Yes, I had everything backed up three different ways, including TimeMachine, but the external drive died at the same time as my laptop.
    Now I can't figure out how to just use my ftp to publish. Every time I try, it wants me to use MobileMe. I don't want to use MobileMe. How do I get to an option to just enter my URL and publish the site?
    Previous versions of iWeb 09 gave me a screen to put in my URL, but not the latest permutation of iWeb 09. Help!

    Greetings,
    Sorry to hear about the loss of data. Multiple backups are a good idea. I burn my iWeb domain file to a CD (along with my calendars and addressbook) once a month as well as maintain a Time Machine backup. I use MobileMe's backup program to trigger these backups, however if you are not a MobileMe member you can search online for other backup programs that can do this for you on a regular basis.
    You can input your FTP host settings by following the steps in the iWeb help menu under "FTP": http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=iWeb/3.0/en/6838.html
    Hope that helps.

  • How do I upload iWeb-site without using 'Flie Publish' feature?

    Due to corporate firewall restrictions I cannot use iDisk, Sync or iWeb to connect to .mac, which presented a problem when I wanted to Publish my iWeb site.
    I have uploaded the site [via webdav, with Transmit] to the Sites folder of my iDisk, but I can't find my site when I enter my .mac URL into my browser (http://web.mac.com/myusername or http://homepage.mac.com/myusername).
    Theoretically, is this the right way to upload to iDisk without using iWeb? Is there anything else I need to do to link my URL to the files in iDisk/Sites?
    Thanks in advance, Lee.

    Ok, my member name is leepaulvickers.
    I've tried
    http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers
    http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers/iweb
    http://web.mac.com/leepaulvickers/leepaulvickers
    http://homepage.mac.com/leepaulvickers
    but just get the 'we can't find the HomePage you've requested' 404 error.
    BTW I've used Transmit to upload to my iDisk in the past, such as files and photos with no problems. I assumed there would be no trouble with iWeb's files...

  • Using OS X Server to host Wordpress site, good idea?

    I have a 2009 Mac Pro. If I installed OS X Server to one of my HDD partitions, does OS X Server come with all the app's for me to host my Wordpress blog? I've already bought a domain name. I know it's more reliable (much better uptime if I bought cloud hosting), but at this moment it's just a casual blog. If my Mac Pro went to sleep would the blog/website go down? If yes, that's not a problem, but just want to know. I also think it would be fun to see if I can set up a blog/website and host myself.
    But I read I need a static IP address for this to work? If yes, that means all the small businesses for which OS X Server is marketed to, need to buy a static IP address which I heard is expensive.
    I also heard that hosting is dangerous as my Mac will get attacked/hacked? Wouldn't OS X Server include protective app's? And even if the hackers got through, the only damage they could do would be limited to the partition that OS X Server and the website is located on? I wouldn't want my whole network and my entire Mac Pro endangered. Please advise. Thanks!

    In no particular order...
    All internet-connected systems can and do get probed, can and do get attacked, and the attacks may or may not be accessible.  WordPress in particular has a long history of security vulnerabilities, so not only are you keeping OS X current and backed up and related tasks, you're also now responsible for keeping and updating WordPress and likely also MySQL database software (quickly!) after vulnerabilities are announced.
    OS X Server is the whole operating system, not something that sits in a partition — you boot OS X (with Server.app installed) and your Mac now has various services that are available.
    If your Mac does get breached, then your whole local network is potentially vulnerable.  This is why some sites configure their web-facing servers in what's called a DMZ.  The DMZ is a second part of the local network that is configured such that it cannot access most or (preferably) all of your core network.  Low-end router-gateway-firewall devices do not offer DMZ capabilities.  Some open-source router-gateway-firewall packages do (if you want to use your own spare x86 hardware), and mid-range and upper-end commercial router-gateway-firewall devices often also do offer a DMZ.
    Backups of your server are part of maintaining security — if you get breached, then having a set of backups in depth — multiple backups, going back to (hopefully) before the breach are how you can recover your environment, should your server be breached.  You'll want to keep copies of these backups out of the DMZ and/or off-site or otherwise out of reach of the potentially-breached server, as some attackers have intentionally deleted everything.
    When you install OS X Server, you'll also need to get your local network going, your local DNS services going — you cannot solely reference off-network DNS servers successfully, properly-configured local DNS services are a prerequisite — and you'll need to get port forwarding for TCP port 80 and potentially TCP port 443 configured through your router-gateway-firewall device — and you'll need these ports to not be firewalled at your ISP, and you'll usually also want to have static IP address though a non-firewalled dynamic IP configuration can be gotten going.  (If you think you may want to run SMTP mail services eventually, then you'll either need static IP, or you'll have to run via a relay service.)
    Also check with your ISP, and see if your service tier permits servers.  Some of them don't, on the non-static-IP service tiers.
    In short: do you really want to be IT and network support?  If you do, then all this stuff is entirely feasible and does work and does work well — usually — and you'll learn a whole lot about IT, IP, networking, DNS services, Apache web services, and system and network security.  If you just want to blog, then using a cheap or free hosting service (somewhere off of your network) will be far less work.    Can all this work?  Sure!  There are a number of folks around the forums that host their own stuff.  Once you get the hang of it all, it's not that bad to maintain, either.

  • Custtom settings for my SP site without using a list or having access to the farm/server?

    My company has a SP farm that is managed by a support team. I have an SP site in it that I have full access to. I don't have access to the farm.
    I wanted to add a custom site settings page and not sure how. I know I can use an SP list but I was looking for something more user friendly.
    Everything I have read online says I need to have deploy custom code on the server which I cannot do.
    Do I have any other options then a list?

    Depends... Can you tell us what the custom page will do?
    If you would like to add a new link to the Site Settings page you can add a Feature (using just XML) to define that link. That link would point to a page in a library like Pages or Site Pages. (examples:
    http://blog-sharepoint.blogspot.com/2011/10/add-custom-links-to-sharepoint-2010-ui.html ,
    http://www.sharepointdiary.com/2013/07/add-link-to-site-settings-page-in-sharepoint-2010.html
    If you would like to add a new page to the _Layouts path, then you will need access to the server.

  • Load balancing host named site collection

    I am jumping into the realm of host named site collection. While the learning experience has been good, still there are some questions unanswered. Please bare patience since my questions are long.
    - I have a non host header site on port 80 that has https certificate added to IIS for supporting app store in https mode.
    - I tried to created the host name site collection using https in this default port 80 non host header web application and was greeted with error. Then i extended the web app to different  zone with port 443 . Then created the host header site collection
    with https with web application name for extended 443 one. Creation went in fine.
    - I tired to use IPs on now extended IIS site and bind certificates on that one. The site does not load. I do the same again in the default zone iss site, bind ips on that one and site loads. Now question is even though host header site collection was created
    using extended web application url , why binding had to be done on default zone IIS site?
    - Second test, i changed the authentication mode for extended, no effect on host named site collection but as soon as i changed it in default zone it reflected in host named site collection. I am confused why it needs extended zone url to create the https
    site but every change done in default zone is getting reflected on this host named site collection.
    Now for load balancing , it works fine with IP? But how to load balance these host named site collection using url. I talked with f5 team and they said i need to send some reply query string from each site. Where do i do that? Or is it even needed? 
    Accoring to this link : https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/name-based-virtual-hosting-with-ltm
    . If the site hosts an application, though, the monitor should request a dynamic page on each webserver which forces a transaction with the application to verify its health and returns a specific phrase upon success.
    For application monitoring, the recommended best practice is to create such a script specific to your application, configure the monitor Send string to call that script, and set the Receive string to match that phrase. 
    Has any one done this before? I tired to search for resource regarding this for iis or sharepoint but was not able to get anything.
    Thank you for your patience for reading such a long question. 
    Adit

    first part of question:
    Default Web Appliction in port 80: Creating https host named site collection fails.
    Extend default web application on port 443 : Https hostnamed site collection created when web application name is passed for extended web application on port 443. This means this site collection is associated with this extended web application correct? But
    all the changes made in IIS only reflect if it is made to port 80 web application. Also changing authentication scheme from Central Admin, only changes on default zone reflects on site collection not the one in extended web application? Why  if the site
    was only created on extended web application paremeter, changes on default are reflecting on it but not from extended.
    Second part of question:
    Each Hostnamed site collection when load balanced thorough f5 using IP for 3 WFE uses 3 IPs for each. This way we will run out of IPs pretty soon. I want to know if there is way to load balance these sites using Hostname or anyother paramenter through f5
    and if any body has done it? 
    https://devcentral.f5.com/articles/name-based-virtual-hosting-with-ltm link talks about sending reply string
    from application but i do not know where to set it up or how to do it? No resources in the net. Just asking if any one else has done it.

  • AAM for Host named site collection

    I have non-host header web application at port 80:http://wwwserver 
    It is AAM to https://wwwserver in same zone.
    Now when i create host named site collection using http it works fine
    New-SPSite http://hostheader.site.com/ -OwnerAlias domain\username -HostHeaderWebApplication http://wwwserver -Template "STS#0"
    But when i do 
    New-SPSite https://hostheader.site.com/ -OwnerAlias domain\username -HostHeaderWebApplication https ://wwwserver -Template "STS#0" i get error Warning: The port specified for the new host header site does not match any known bindings in the specified
    web appplication . The new site will not be accessible if the web application is not extended to an IIS web site serving this port.
    Now when i try to extend web application on port 443 it says it is already used by sharepoint. I do not want to screw aam since all my app store urls are configured through https://wwwserver. Any way to achieve https in host named site collection?
    sachin
    sachin

    Hi Sachin,
    Powershell New-SPSite is specifically looking for a web application that responds to
    http://www, not http://www. I don't think AAM applies for web applications, only for the URLs that the web application responds too.

  • How to work with an EXISTING wordpress site in side DW CS5 (yahoo hosted)

    Have and existing  Wordpress site that is hosted by Yahoo.  Recently upgraded to  Dreamweaver CS5. Was really excited about working with my Wordpress  files inside of DW CS5 with all of it's new capabilities, bells and  wistles.  I can't seem to get it set up right.
    Is Dreamweaver CS5 ABLE to display existing wordpress sites with dynamic content? And can anyone please help me figure out how.
    I have been thru several lynda.com video tutorials including:
    Dreamweaver CS5 and Wordpress 3 by Joseph Lowery (over the last month)
    Dreamweaver CS5 with PHP and MySQL by David Gassner (over the last month)
    PHP with MySQL essetial training by Kevin Skoglund (about a year ago when trying to learn php)
    Self-hosting a Wordpress site (about a year ago when I set up the site)
    I have also been scouring this forum and the web trying to find the answer to what seems to be a very common problem.
    Using Mac OSX 10.6.6
    MAMP
    Dreamweaver CS5
    Wordpress 3
    Yahoo web hosting
    Everything works fine with the exercise files but as soon as I try my existing site files it gives me one of several errors
         cannot establish a connection to the database
    I set up my site thur the DW site manager with the
    Local Site Folder set to: /applications/MAMP/htdocs/nate
    server set to:
    name: testing
    connection using: local/network
    server folder:  /applications/MAMP/htdocs/nate
    web url: http://localhost/nate
    under the advanced tab i have set the server model to: php mysql
    and have the testing box checked in the site set up dialog box
    I also set a remote server:
    name: remote
    connect using: ftp
    ftp address: ftp.MY_SITE_NAME.com
    username: myusername@MY_SITE_NAME.com
    password:  mypassword
    under the advanced tab i have the server model set to: php mysql
    and have the remote box checked in the site set up dialog box
    when tested connection was made.  I also downloaded all of my site files using this connections (it took hours).
    I installed MAMP and set the ports to the defauls (80, 3306) host: localhost username: root password: root
    If i change the database settings in the wordpress wp-config.php file  to: localhost, root, root it works and displays my page as I would  expect in live view or browser but without the main content area or  posts - displays a 404 error where the content should beI have exported my wp database and imported back into my local testing server thru phpmyadmin.
    I have also gotten this error at various tries in the set ups: "dynamically-related files could not be resolved because of an internal server error"
    I am currently getting this error: "Dynamically related files could not be resolved because the site definition is not correct for this server"
    It is not asking me if I want to save files to the server when I hit live view.
    Everything  works fine with the lynda.com exercise files and with the generic wordpress files.  I can open any page -  live view or view in browser  - can access and modify the imported  database thur dreamweaver and phpmyadmin. I am only having these problems with my existing site files. I have done the complete set up at least 5 times from scratch going thru the videos and various tutorials step by step.  I dont want to use the starter files that come with wordpress installations I want to use my highly modified pages/themes/database

    DW does not work with a WP installation that has anything other than the default (numeric) permalinks. Apparently no-one ever tested this case during the development and prerelease phase, which is a shame, because very few WP installations use default permalinks. It's a point that Joseph Lowery doesn't touch in his tutorial, and of course the tutorial WP installation works perfectly.
    Hope that helps, although it may disappoint (as it did me, and a lot of other folks). Here's hoping this is addressed in a dot release.

  • Can Muse host Wordpress?

    I have a Muse website and I've seen in one of the tutorials a basic how to create blog menu option that redirects the user to a blog (outside of business catalyst). I want to begin using Wordpress for my blog, but in order to do so, Wordpress says I need to find a web host that supports Wordpress. Do I need to find another hosting site (i.e. GoDaddy.com) to do this; or can I use Muse as my hosting site? Thanks.

    Hi Crystalstar
    Muse is a designing software. It is not a hosting platform. You can't host sites with muse. However, you can host sites with Business Catalyst. If you choose to host sites with BC, you can create your blog on BC itself. For more info on BC features, please refer to the following link : http://www.businesscatalyst.com/features

  • Can web pages generated with Muse be integrated into a wordpress site?

    Can web pages generated with Muse be integrated into a wordpress site?
    Can sites/pages generated with Adobe muse be published through word press?

    Muse is static HTML, WordPress is a PHP-based CMS. Neither has anything to do with the other and depending on whether you use a pre-hosted WordPress install it may not even possible to include any static HTML nor modify the WP theme. Otherwise your static muse site would simply be a sub-domain/ sub-section in a separate folder that can be linked from the main WP install, but beyond that they don't interact.

  • How to publish a single Muse page to site that also has a Wordpress site

    I have a site (ddmdigital.com) that has Wordpress on it. I need to create several unrelated, stand-alone Muse pages that I would also like to put on that site...not to be accessed from the Wordpress site, just accessed from the site itself. For example, I'd like to put the files in a folder called FB so their url would be ddmdigital.com/fb/pagename. I can't figure out how to specify what I want in Muse's "FTP to Url" dialog box to upload them. I created the folder called FB and tried to use that but Muse just says "No folder of that name found."
    I have done this by manually FTP-ing all the files but I'd like to use Muse's publish feature. Any help?
    Thanks!

    Screenshot of ftp window will help. Alternatively you can export the pages as html and then upload to your server using any FTP client.
    Thanks,

  • Using Form in muse site

    I have a muse site that is not hosted on the adobe business catalyst so the form widget doesn't work for me.
    I was wondering -- Could I develop a acrobat form for a webpage and would it export okay from my muse file
    to html file and then I could upload to my hosted account?   If so, would the configurations set up in the acrobat
    form stay in tack on the export to html or would I need to code or configure for my hosted site?

    Hello,
    You need to get the Embed code from Jotforms and yoo can insert the Emed code by clicking on Object>Insert HTML in Muse. NAd in the Edit HTML Window you can insert the HTML code you get from Jotforms.
    To get the Embed code from Jotforms, you need to click  on Setup and Embed tab at the top of the form in Jotforms and then click on Embed form button at the top in the toolbar.
    From the window that comes up, you can get the Embed code and use  it in Muse.
    Hope this helps.

  • Using Lion Server as a web server for Wordpress sites?

    Is anyone doing this? I have a few low traffic Wordpress sites I'd like to move to a Lion server I already have at MacMiniColo to try and reduce my costs.
    Obviously I'll have to install MySQL and MySQL Workbench for the databases, which I'm fairly comfortable with, however I'm not sure what the best route for FTP access to the WP directories is. I've looked at Rumpus but it's just a little too pricy for my needs.
    Does anyone have any advice?

    John, I guess you did install MySQL and got Wordpress running? I use the default location for web sites on Lion server. So my site is in /Library/Server/Web/Data/Sites/wordpress/. Since the directory is owned by _www I use root to retrieve and put files under this directory. My own user account would not have sufficient rights. It is not safe to use root with ssh with a password, so you will have to make sure you can only login as root with an ssh key. Therefore edit /etc/sshd_config and make sure that a line with 'PermitRootLogin without-password' is present. sshd or your server should be restarted then.
    On you local mac you can use the terminal to generate a key. Use 'ssh-keygen'. Here (and on various other web pages) you can find how to do this:
    http://coolestguyplanettech.com/secure-ssh-keys-connection-with-remote-passwords -osx-10-6-linux/
    On the server you will have to put the authorized_keys file in /var/root/.ssh/
    Now you can use cyberduck and let it authenticate with the key you have generated (id_rsa if you use the web page I pointed to). Then you can go to the wordpress directory and upload or edit files.
