Hosting Muse site at BC

I have a full CC subscription and therefore am permitted 5 free BC sites.
Are these only for 28 days or whatever for testing and sharing, or can they be hosted long term within the terms of the 5 free sites, without additional charges?
Sorry to be thick, but it doesn't seem to be clear from what I read on the site.

Take a look at this article - http://helpx.adobe.com/muse/tutorials/launching-muse-site-push-live-1.html.
You can create a maximum of 100 free trial sites with your Business Catalyst free Partner account, you would usually use these for previewing and testing purposes or sharing the work with your clients for review. A trial site remains active for 30 days following the last time it is published to.
The free Business Catalyst sites that you push live (max 5) renew automatically with your Creative Cloud subscription. So you just need to pay for CC subscription and your free sites hosted with Business Catalyst remain "live". These sites are webBasics by plan (and can always be upgraded to higher), read more about site plans here - http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html.

Third Party Hosting Muse Site - 404 Error on Mobile

Hi guys,
I recently exported my Adobe Muse site files (pixelariumstudio.com), uploaded them into FileZilla, and then uploaded the site to GoDaddy hosting services using FileZilla.
The site looks great on desktops but I receive a 404 error whenever I try to view the site on mobile devices (even tablets). I called GoDaddy thinking it was a problem on their end but after two opinions from two separate calls, I've been informed it's the code of the site itself that is the problem. The funny thing is, when the site was hosted through Adobe, it appeared fine on mobile devices but when the site was moved over to GoDaddy, the 404 error arose.
I'm wondering if Muse writes specific code for displaying a site in mobile browsers that is not recognized by third party hosting services because GoDaddy is not redirecting the site to the mobile view and instead just coming up with a 404 error. If so, is there any way to change the code that Muse writes to display the site on mobile devices so that GoDaddy can recognize it? I've done some research online to see what basic code is used to redirect a site to the mobile view but all I came up with was:
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
Every guide I find says to place that tag right after the <head> and I do but still no luck getting the website to display on mobile devices. If anyone knows the proper coding to get GoDaddy to display a Muse site on mobile devices, I would forever be in your debt. I'm guessing it's just a couple lines I have to replace but I don't know what lines or with what to replace it. :/ Here is the entire <head> of the website in case this helps find any faulty code:

Sounds like you haven't uploaded all the files exported by Muse.
Specifically, it looks like you didn't upload the 'phone' folder.
If you use Filezilla or another 3rd party FTP tool, you have to be sure to upload all the files exported by Muse for your site to work correctly.
You can also use the 'Upload to FTP host...' menu item within Muse to upload all the files to your web hosting provider.

Suggestion: Host Muse sites on separate server

After looking at user's Muse websites while fielding questions in this forum it's become apparent that there is no care taken in image optimization. Typically, if a Muse user chooses a full width background image it is around 3,000 x 2,000 pixels in resolution and at least 2mb (sometimes even more-- 3.5mb) in size.
With the low learning curve and lack of image optimization techniques by Muse users I think it would be wise to setup separate servers for Muse websites or at least ensure that Muse sites aren't hosted on the same servers that our Partner sites and Partner clients' sites are hosted on. There are bound to be thousands more of these free CC Muse sites with poor image optimization zapping the resources of our server architecture for paid partners.
I realize that the move to AWS will lessen this impact a bit but I still find it worrysome.
Also, are paid Partner accounts and their clients hosted on the same servers as the free or "included" sites for Muse and CC members? I don't think we should be on the same servers as the free sites either.
Just a suggestion but I cannot find a suggestions/feature request forum to post this on and I want to see what others think about this topic.

What I did in the end was a 'ln -s' symbolic link which gave me 'almost' the personal web sites functionality but without the tilde (~). Not quite what I wanted but good enough.

Trouble hosting muse site with Business Catalyst

I built a site with muse and am hosting with BC(creative cloud subscription). The original site is kittlesoncreekpress.businesscatalyst.com, trying to publish to www.kittlesoncreekpress.com but I get a 404 error when I try to publish. The namesservers are set correctly with domain registrar.
HELP!!!
Thanks so much!

Hello Tony,
When I tried to access kittlesoncreekpress.com, the URL that came up is http://www.kittlesoncreekpress.com/www.kittlesoncreek.com
Notice the www.kittlesoncreek.com after the domain name.
I have checked all the settings on the business catalyst end for the site kittlesoncreekpress.businesscatalyst.com, and they seem fine. The domain has been added correctly, the nameservers are fine as well. Please check if there is some fowarding etc. applied to the domain from the registrar's end.

Help need to switch Muse site to BC on a allready hosted plan

Hi, i also posted on BC forum...
I have a client that was in a hurry to have his emails accounts before the entire website.
So i went on and bought the email marketing plan (cos he will also need to do email campains) an pointed his domain everything is working fine, at this moment he has his accounts the domain is live.
The site would be just a small 7-10 pages not to complicated.
Has a graphic designer (who has venture into Business catalyst cos it had all the solutions i needed, well that's what the promotional videos said anyway) I made a site in Muse.
First i did a temporary page thats says "comming soon", and then i made the entire site, all the design and menu but with blank pages cos the client didnt have all the content yet (and still dont have). I uploaded that site to a sub directory so he could see the evolution.
He approved the design, yay!
At the end of the process, he told me he needed to have full control with the editor. (style, images, bulleted list, need to put downloadable document like pdf etc.) i told him that he could only modify what was allready there with the Muse in Browser editing (that he saw when i made the pitch using another site) he was impress with the way it worked.
so i told him i would have to remake "template".
I thought of using a BC template, and modify the looks to adapt to my client image, Of course, use a responsive theme so he could make the change at one place only. (cos in Muse you need to make the changes on the 3 layouts).
Now, i created a new temporary site using one of the new responsive template available.
How can i import that new site onto his live domain? In other words, how can a switch from a theme made in Muse, to a BC template?
cant i just delete everything in the root folder, and upload the entire new site via ftp?
please help me find the solution. i am a bit in a panic here
hope you could understand my lousy English.
Sincerely,
i.d.

This would need to be transparent for m'y client...

Thanks for additional details.
Unfortunately we cannot change site template of a live site in BC , but as a workaround Create a site from BC using the template you wish to use then publish the site from Muse to the site created from BC and transfer the contents stored from live site to trial site. Ater final transition is done , you can delete the already paid site and make live the new trial site which includes new site template.
Thanks,

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites? This is so I can keep my free ones for personal projects but also so they can pay for their own hosting. I am happy to set it all up for them but not sure what to do.

Hi
You can use their BC login details and use them , which on publish the site will be under their account.
Please change the BC login from Edit > Preferences > Publish > Switch Accounts , for Mac it would Adobe Muse > Preferences

I need to clarify how I can use adobe as a host for my site for free. I see where business catalyst is supposed to be temporary as well as it is recommended to use as the better alternative to launch my muse site. But then I have to use the long extension of "businesscatalyst" in addition to the domain name I'd prefer. How exactly can I take it live? do I have to use a third party hosting?

Hi,
Once you are done with your sitet, Click on Publish in Muse, select New Site from the drop down, It will ask you a name for your site, which will be used for site url, you will get a url like mysite.businesscatalyst.com, then go to the browser and login to the admin panel, mysite.businesscatalyst.com/admin and on Dashboard, click Launch site. This will push your site live, and you can then add your custom domain.
Also make sure that you have completed all these actions mentioned here

Where do I find host info for a Muse site hosted on BC?

I created a Muse site a while back, and just added new stuff tothe site. When I went to upload to FTP all of the host info was blank. Where do I find this information so that I can upload updates?

Hi
In case you are hosting your site to BC, this is a useful article, where you will get all the information regarding the BC SFTP. This article is also useful if you want to connect to your bc site using a third party ftp client like filezila.

Publishing an Adobe Muse site to a third party hosting provider?

Hi Guys,
I'm trying to find instructions as to how to go about publishing my completed Adobe Muse site which is hosted with a third party hosting company, there are videos for publishing to business catalyst alright.
Any help would be greatly appreciated...
Thanks
Have a nice Saturday :-)

I am having a problem trying to FTP my site created in Muse, too. I am using "Upload to FTP host" (Found under File) and after several tries I am still getting a different error message each time: "Error uploading (a certain file which happens to be a jpg this time!). Click Resume to try again. If this problem persists, try again later.
[426 Failure reading network stream.]."
I tried again and again and again. So I called the host company and I checked to see if am using all the correct settings that they have.They verified that I had the proper settings.
Still no success.

Setting up POP e-mail on a Muse site hosted on Business Catalyst

Hi, I've recently taken a Muse site 'live' using one of the 5 'credits' I got with the Creative Cloud Subscription. This, I understand, means that the site is hosted on WebBasics+ service, which includes hosted e-mail.
The domain name has been registered with 1-2-3, redirected to the BC servers. This is working fine. Now I want to set up a POP mail account for the domian.
But there's no e-mail options showing on the BC site management for the domain.
How do I go about getting e-mail with this domain on the BC 'system'.
Any help greatfully appreciated.
RP

Thanks for the reply. Have to be honest, I find Adobe a little unclear.
When I first came across editorial mentioning 5 free sites, I assumed it would be the 'entry level' service: WebBasics+, as shown on the main pricing web page.
Now you're saying, the 'CC credits' only give me access to the 'Webhosting' service. This service isn't shown on the Pricing web page, so I took it that WebBasics+ was the ebtry level.
Now that I go back to the pricing page, I see there is a link (a small one) to the Detailed Pricing breakdown. Which does show Webbasics. I wish I'd seen that before.
I feel a right chump!
Thanks for your reply, though.

Which BC plan do I select to host my client who has aTumblr blog on a Muse site?

Which Business Catalyst plan do I select to host my client's website with aTumblr blog on a Muse site? aspics or marketing?

Hello
If you need features like email marketing, BC blogs, secure zone, then you need to select webMarketing plan. And if you need E-commerce features, that you need the webCommerce plan.
If you want to use external blogs then you may go for a lower plan like webBasic+ or webHosting plan.
Different plan offer different features. Please see the breakdown of what is included in each plan here:- http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst/kb/detailed-plan-breakdown.html

Help with BC e-mail hosting for Muse site

Having a hard time finding our exactly how to set-up BC e-mail hosting on a Muse site. I see much information but am not sure half the time if they are referring to a muse site or bc site. Seems like everyone treats Muse as the ******* child. I have upgraded from WebBasic and added my domain name. Is there a page that spells out what I should do. I have looked but can't find it.
Thank you very much.

Hi,
Please note under webBasic you cannot host email with BC it'll need to be through an external mail service.
"What are the limitations of the Business Catalyst websites that come with Creative Cloud?
You will be limited to 100 MB of storage and 1 extra user (could be your customer). You are not entitled to emails, SMSes or newsletters for this web plan."
Instead you'll need to have an external mail service or if you decide to upgrade to a higher plan is only then will you be able to configure emails with BC.

Hope this helps clarify.

How do I add a blog to my Muse site?

Is there a widget or something I can throw onto a page and have people post comments?
Or more importantly, can I just allow my customer to post "News" through In-Browser editing? (Do I just throw a text block on a page and title it, "News" and let them add to it)?
What if they wanted to add photos to their "News" or "Blog" page?

You can absolutely insert a blog into your Adobe Muse site. Most instructions for doing this involve creating a WordPress hosted blog, then embedding that into a Muse page with 'Insert HTML', which creates an iframe with your blog inside.
While embedding an existing blog with an iframe within a Muse page works, it isolates the blog's content from being considered in the main site's SEO, since it's pages are not actually on the site's server.
The simplest way, and it's very simple, is to install a WordPress, or any other, blog into a folder in your site named 'blog'. Pick a theme that enables you to mimic your main as closely as you care to. Then create a link in your main site's menu to link to the blog folder. Here's an example...
http://creativeillusions.biz
You can also use a blank WordPress theme with no header or footer at all - only the blog posts and sidebar(for categories and recent posts, etc.). Use that theme with a locally installed WordPress blog, them embed that blog in an iframe, and you'd have a very functional blog that can perfectly fit your Muse site's theme, since it's header and footer will actually be the ones on your main site. Plus, since it's actually hosted along with your Muse site's files, it's available for the site's SEO.
For SEO purposes, you'll need to add your blog folder manually to your sitemap.xml. This is a bit of a hassle, since you'll need to add the blog's entry into your sitemap.xml each time that you re-upload your site, since that actually writes a new version of the sitemap.xml over the existing one. Still, it's a very simple way to add a blog to your Muse site.

How do I add cookies to adobe muse site?

Hello,
I am creating a site in Adobe Muse, which I also host through the webbasic adobe business catalyst account.
I want to add a cookies message onto my site and to that of client sites that I create.
I searched the forum and there appears to be a guide showing how to get the cookies set up in adobe business catalyst itself. However, when I try to follow the instructions, I fall at the first hurdle because it tells me to go into Site Manager and then into Pages. However, I don't have anything that says Pages. Mine only has two options; Web Forms and System Emails. The only thing in the Web Forms folder is Contact Form.
I have no idea how to get the cookies message onto my Adobe Muse site. Please...does anyone know the answer?
Also, if someone from Adobe reads this, it would be great if Adobe Muse had a widget for this...considering it is now a requirement for all websites that use cookies to be able to get consent. I hope it's in the next update.
Cheers
Sebastian

Refer to this thread for instructions on adding a Manage cookies form - http://forums.adobe.com/message/539301
The online content editing is disabled by default for sites published through Muse to BC and hence the Pages tab doesn't appear for you under Site Manager. However, you can always enable the Online Content editing feature by logging into the site admin -> going to the My Details section (by hovering over your name at the top right) and enable the option as indicated in the screenshot below.
Please refer to the following post for a reason as to why the option is incompatible with Muse (but doesn't affect any functionality as such if you enable it).
