John,
No easy task with iWeb's file structure. It appears the sites are all stored together. If you create a second site, you'll see that it's not a new document, just a new heading in the Site Organizer column. Site info is stored in a package called "Domain" in UserName/Library/Application Support/iWeb. This contains all media. The pages themselves are most likely in index.xml.gz. I'm assuming template info and content have been compiled in the xml docs in this zipped file. Sorry that I have no better news.

  • How to Duplicate a Page in Wiki Server 3

    I have just set up a Mac Mini Lion Server to use as a staff information portal / intranet. I would like to use the wiki to keep our standard procedures up to date and all in one place. Is there any way to set up a page template in Wiki Server? All the procedures will follow the same format, so the ability to create a page from a template or duplicate an existing page would be a super timesaver.

  • How to Change iWeb page themes after the page has already created?

    Once you have created a page with a theme and saved it, and then later you want to change it to another theme... How does one change theme without recreating the page?
    Also, How does one add background music to a page once it is opened?
    Thanks!
    T.

    I too am wondering about your first question, but I have found a workaround for your second question.
    First save the audio clip as a mov file in quicktime, then place it somewhere on the page. Make it small and out of the way and hide ot from site.
    Now publish the site. Then you will have to change the HTML. Open text edit and select "Ignore Rich Text Commands". Open the iDisk icon on the left and find the Web folder then follow this string Web/Sites/iWeb/<Your Site Name>/<then the page name folder, example: "Home_files">/then "Home.js"
    Once opened find the quicktime file use the find feature it will list the properties twice, the second listings are the ones you want to change. Change controller="true" to controller="false". Then autoplay="false" to autoplay="true" and loop="false" to loop="true".
    If you change that specific page and republish you will have to do this again, but only if you change that page. You will not if you rebublish and you had made no changes to that specific page.
    Hope this helps.

  • How do I make pages open a template on launch?

    I just switched from Office Mac to pages because I got a retina macbook, and Office looked all blurry.
    Anyway, I made a perfect template for myself and set it to the default, but still when I open pages, it opens the finder window that lets you choose a document. How to I make it open a new document using my template when I launch it?
    Thanks!

    Pages ’09 v4.3 on OS X 10.8.5.

    Pick the Template you want, close Preferences. The next time you launch Pages, it will default to the specified Template.

  • How to upload iweb page

    i want to upload my website from iweb to namesco, i have bought my domain name from them , which comes with an email and ftp thing.
    i have saved my website in iweb to local folder and to ftp, when  doing a test connnection everything is working perfectly. i dont thinks its a problem with namesco  as the when i trying my website address it comes up with an access denied page.
    other info that might help ;
    all the icons in the left coloumn of iweb are red - is that important?
    the publish icon in bottom left corner is now faded, so unpressable.
    for directory path i can type in / or /web and test connection works
    i am VERY new at this website making stuff so please use short and easy to understand word!!! like talking to a 5 year old!!!
    thanks for your time and hopefully your help x

    The icons in the left column will turn blue when you publish successfully using either the iWeb FTP or to a local folder.
    Both publishing methods are described here...

    If you are using the iWeb FTP, try using the publishing settings shown on the above page. Leave the Directory/Path blank.

  • How to duplicate a page layout\

    I'm having trouble duplicating a page layout.  Normally in Microsoft Word when you went to the next page, the prior layout would be duplicated.  Not so in Pages.  To be specific, I created a tables page to use with Avery/Staples address labels type 5160/8160.  It works for the first page, but I have to keep re-creating it for subsequent pages and I know that there has to be an easier way, but that I just cant find it.

    So are we talking about Pages 5?

  • How to edit iWeb pages in Lion

    After installing Lion, iWeb is gone.. searched the forum and many tips for other programs. But I will edit an old site built in iWeb.. Is there a program that can read iWeb projects without problems?

    Are you sure the iWeb application is not in your Applications folder? If it is consider the following:
    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
    If the iWeb application is not on your hard drive then reinstall it from the disks that came with your Mac.  It will look like one of these:
    Then apply the appropriate updaters.

  • How to create several fast loading big albums in iWeb using your own templates

    hi guys - here comes one for the real cracks.
    i am trying to create a nice PICTURES page containing about 100 albums with each of it containing up to 100 individual pictures on my website, where i also have several videos online and (soon) audio files - everything available for download.
    my problem is that the main "My album" page in iWeb will always ALL sub albums on just one page, which would in my case lead to endless loading time - i have now 30 albums online and it already takes ages to display all of them.
    so i want to create several album pages, each of them displaying only 6 individual sub albums and this way allow a decent page loading time. this is usually done by just adding a new "my album" page using one of apple's templates. and here is my problem: my web site design is made from scratch and is not similar to any of apple's templates. since iWeb does not allow you to save your individual pages as "templates" i had to go a long way around, using iWebsites and merge a newly created picture template page (containing my own duplicated "my album") with ma main site. for some reason this did almost work out but in the end not really - if you are interested have a look at the separate discussion in this forum
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/15532580#15532580  (how to save any iWeb page as a template)
    so my question here is if any of you know of any other way to achieve my goal of getting several individual main albums containing 6 subalbums (this way it fits on one page and allow NOT having to scroll down at all) and this in a way which will fit the design of my web page. have a look at the now existing pictures page and imagine that i want more or less the same but divided in individual pages containing only 6 albums per page:
    http://www.giorgiodellapietra.com/giorgiodellapietra.com/PICTURES/PICTURES.html
    here an example of how it should look like in the end:

    thank you very much for your impact.
    cheers

    hi folks
    don't worry, i have given up as it really seems iWeb can not do this.
    however, i have identified 2 possible solutions. the one i have chosen is to simply add new albums by choosing one of apple's templates and then modify it until it fits my design. i have created 15 additional main albums this way and it took me (because of the "mass production") only 15 minutes per album to get it done. now i have enough empty albums spare for the next few years...
    the other way to accomplish what i wanted would have been to make the main "my album" page invisible for visitors and use it only for administration (so it can contain 100 albums but nobody would ever have to wait until they load). then create a new page which i call picture (copy any of my other pages and modify it) on which i will post some "virtual albums", which means use any picture out of an album and create a direct link to the album. i could use a vary low resolution version of the main pic and this way i would have a "picture" page which loads extremely fast but is actually nothing else than a link to the real album. then just copy this page as many times as i need albums and change the pictures and the links in it. the advantage is that it loads very fast, the disadvantage that i loose the ability to scroll through albums by moving the mouse over it, as what you see is of course only a picture and not the album.
    i have chosen the first version because it has the advantage to be able to move albums as one pleases. however, both versions would be fine.
    it's already done and eaten.
    thanks anyway for reading yourself through this...
    cheers

  • How can I use Pages 4.3 (from Retail pack) template on Pages 5.2 (from Mac App Store)?

    This is a new machine running on Mavericks bought last year since my old Mac had a hard-drive failure. Installed Pages (part of iWork '09 package), updated to Pages 5.0 from the Mac App Store and no issues. However, now I need to use some of the old Pages template (San Fancisco Letter to be specific) and the new Pages dosn't have that.
    So I had to extract the San Fancisco template from Pages '09 and tried installing under 'My Template' on Pages 5.3. But evertime I'm getting an error while installing. That's when I realised after going through the discussions here, that I can't install a Pages '09 template on Pages 5.3.
    So my question is how to use a Pages 4.0 template on Pages 5.3? Is it possible to install Pages 4.3 while Pages 5.2 is still installed? Is there a workaround?
    Note: I don't need Pages 4.3 but would like to use some of the templates from there, working on Pages 5.2.
    Thanks in advance - Sid

    Due to the huge number of missing features in v5.2 that were functional in Pages ’09 v4.3, many of the older version templates expect features/functionality that simply do not exist in v5.2. You should realize that Pages v5 is a brand new application/design, and not a progressive version enhancement to Pages ’09.
    When you updated to Pages v5, that process automatically moved Pages ’09 v4.3 into /Applications/iWork '09. You can continue to use the older Pages (and associated custom templates) on Mavericks.
    I would resist removing Pages ’09 from your machine, as it is functionally superior to Pages v5.
    Templates that you save with Pages ’09 v4.3 are kept in ~/Library/Application Support/iWork/Pages/Templates/My Templates
    Templates that you save with Pages v5+ are kept in ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iWork.Pages/Data/Library/Application Support/User Templates
    One of the things that I noticed about the original Pages v5 installation is that it transferred a small subset of My Templates from Pages ’09 into the above User Templates location. These were relative simple templates. The complicated ones did not migrate.
    Be certain to make a backup copy of any Pages ’09 template document. Once you open it in Pages v5+, it can no longer be opened in the older Pages application. Providing the template is compatible with Pages v5+, perform a File > Save as Template... to the default location.

  • How do you duplicate a page inside a PDF?

    I have a multipage PDF and ive never been able to figure out how to duplicate a page I have inside without duplicating the file and pulling a page out and dragging into the other file.  Just a long way of doing this for something that seems so simple.  Is there a way to do it?

    I found this in the help file - hope it helps!
    Click the Pages button to open the Pages panel, and select one or more page thumbnails.
    Do one of the following:
    To move a page, drag the page number box of the corresponding page thumbnail or the page thumbnail itself to the new location. A bar appears to show the new position of the page thumbnail. The pages are renumbered.
    To copy a page, Ctrl-drag/Option-drag the page thumbnail to a second location.
