How to publish from iWeb to Wordpress

I want to take the advantage of those beautiful design sofware to create an amazing blog for my wordpress account. But I run into problem of not know how to do it and I do not want to live in the restriction of wordpress has for me on the web design.

There's no know method to conver an iWeb blog, design wise, to a wordpress blog. Rage software, however, has offered an application that can export the entries and comments of a current iWeb blog for use in an wordpress blog. Convert Your iWeb Blog to a WordPress Blog | iWeb to WordPress for Mac OS X But the design and layout must be created by wordpress.

How to publish from iweb using snow leopard

Hi,
Having had my iMac for some 4.5 years I finally have a real reason to use iweb and now can't work out how to publish from it.
I only have a mobile me option come up when I click the publish option. My mobile me account was deactivated some time ago and reactivation is not an option. I can't see any other option for publishing. Is there one or have I missed my chance?
Has anybody faced the same problem and found a solution?
Thanks,

What version of iWeb are you using? iWeb 09 or 08?
If using 08, then you'll need to select publish to a local folder and use Cyberduck or FileZilla or Transmit to upload your site to another server.
If using iWeb 09, then select your site name and a drop down menu should appear that has 3 options - publish to MobileMe, publish to ftp and then publish to a local folder. You either need to select publish to ftp or local folder to upload your site to another sever. This is what you will need to do anyway come the end of June when MME will be no longer.
Find a new host now.

How to publish from iWeb to two different .mac accounts

my household has two separate .macs account and we want to publish from iWeb to the two different accounts which I cannot figure out. thanks

I discovered I could duplicate Domain.sites2 (~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/Domain.sites2). I named one "Domain de.sites2", and the other "Domain daru.sites2". Then I opened daru's site and deleted de's, then I opened de's and deleted daru's, and I have two separate sites (with aliases in the dock) that I presume I'll be able to upload separately. Once I get .Mac sub groups created...
If it works, it saves the hassle of creating other user accounts, since only my wife and I use the computer. Right now, .Mac is telling me I can't create a sub account in my wife's name because she already has a .Mac ID (and a two month free trial account she had to agree to, to join the group) for a group site I manage. I don't think she ought to be required to have a separate identity every time she logs into .Mac.

How do I move my blog posts from iWeb to Wordpress?

I want to move all my blog posts from iWeb to Wordpress. Is that possible and how?

Depending on how many posts you have, it may be best to copy and paste them into Wordpress. I don't know for sure, but I dought if there is any process that will do that automatically for you. I would have your iWeb blog (edit Mode) window open and then Create a new blog in Wordpress. Copy the iWeb title/paste into Wordpress - Copy the iWeb blog text/paste into Wordpress. It should go fast once you get the first one done because you'll do the same for all. Hope that helps.

Cannot publish from iWeb 08 after upgrading to Leopard

When I click on Publish from iWeb I first get a window .Mac Information asking me to login and a smaller window saying "logging in to iWeb". I click on sign in button from .Mac Information window and then get the System Preferences window telling me I am signed in and giving me my account status. From here nothing happens. The "logging into iWeb" message stays and nothing happens.
What should I do?

Thanks and Merry Christmas to you too! I have experienced both modem/network problems and was unable to publish in Tahiti and Cook Islands because of that and now these problems which have nothing to do with network it seems - so yours may or may not be network related. I was able to cheat and copied my "Site" folder from my hard drive to my iDisk rather then publishing. I can't remember if you've tried this or not (read a lot of strings today) but you can publish to a folder and then copy that folder to your iDisk at /Web/Sites/iWeb/Site as "Site" after first renaming the one that is out there now. Let me know if you have any questions on how to do it. It sounds like you are traveling like we are and anxious to communicate with friends and family back home. When you are bored, our site is web.mac.com/baganworldtour.
At least we now have our first update out there in two weeks. But it took almost two hours to copy the folder and this won't work forever. Hopefully we, whether by the discussion room or .mac support next week, will be able to fix the problem for real.
Thanks. Good Luck. Merry Christmas

Cannot publish from iweb to iweb website

Had to format hard drive and re-install OS. Suspect domain file is gone? I can see my website on .mac - but it does not show on iweb. when i publish from iweb, it tells me it's been published, but no changes on .mac - any ideas? help!

I have the same problem. I tried your advice but still cannot get iweb to publish. Before I had my computer serviced it worked fine and publishing took place automatically.

How to publish from Flash CC to player 10.1 or lower?

How to publish from Flash CC to player 10.1 or lower?
Just realised CC by default dont have such player as option to publish for... Problem is, that a lot of big ads publishers like google adwords doesnt allow swfs in player higher than 10.1... So basically i have a huge problem... Why Adobe has to be so ignorant towards the needs of their customers? "If you dont upgrade flash, you wont be able to open higher versions of .fla files", if you do upgrade, you wont be able to publish in lower players version"... You make my proffesional part of life miserable, you know that? :/ I bet most of flash usage is for ads, so why not checking what publishers demand and maybe consider not removing it from your software?
That just ruined my schedule and deadlines are collapsing on me. Thank you very much.

Hi,
If you open the swf file in text editor:
The first 8 bytes of any SWF file are not compressed, the rest of the file could be compressed (or not) by zlib compression.
1st byte: 'F' (not compressed) OR 'C' (compressed).
2nd byte: 'W' always.
3rd byte: 'S' always.
4th byte: version number (09 means this file is targeted at Flash Player 9 and so on...)
5th to 8th: Length of entire file in bytes
More details at actionscript 3 - How can I determine what flash player version a swf was published for? - Stack Overflow
Thanks!

Switch from iWeb to WordPress?

          A week ago I asked about alternatives to iWeb for blogging on this forum.
One suggestion received from Roddy was to consider software created by
RageSW called iWeb to WordPress.
I did explore this and chose to try it.
Specifically, I paid $120 for one year's webhosting services.
This included provision of a domain and installation of WordPress
at my new website.
          My reaction so far is mixed for the following reasons:
1. My current weblog, a health-related blog, consists of a welcome page,
which is fixed, and four pages on which I place posts to diverse audiences
every few months as appropriate to the on-going health story.
2. In WordPress terms, these four pages are considered four separate blogs.
3. When iWebtoWrdPrs is used on the files published to a local folder, they
must be broken into four separate blogs. The result was that all 28 posts
from my four pages wound up in one WrdPrs blog.
4. To separate these back into "four groups", I chose the names of my iWeb
pages to create four WordPress "categories", which can be displayed in the
blog page sidebar. Then, I assigned each post to its related category.
I consider this marginally satisfactory and certainly neither elegant, nor
user-friendly.
5. The navigation menu at the top of the page looks like the one iWeb
produces, but it accommodates several fixed pages and one blog page
with all the posts. This seems to make sense for commercial entities;
for me it seems clumsy and rigid.
6. To use the software one must be using iWeb3.0.x.
7. On the plus side, the staff at RageSW have been very responsive and
helpful.
          In the short term I will continue using iWeb; my MobileMe subscription
runs thru next June. RageSW also offers hosting for iWeb publishing if you
want to experiment with your own domain. There are many tutorials on
WordPress available on-line and a good support community. Maybe I'll find
a satisfactory way to implement my blog in WordPress down the road.

Yes, if you have purchased both a domain name and hosting, then it is your server - so I have a domain name registered with hosting space from HostExcellence and that is my server space.
WordPress.org can only be loaded onto a server/hosting space as it is seen as one of the Content Management Systems's similar to Joomla and Drupal. For this you need server space and a database and most hosting companies have automatic loading of something like WordPress.org onto the sever - you just click on install and it will all be loaded onto the server for you along with the database needed.
The difference between the WordPress.org is that as it is installed directly on your server, then it is linked directly to your own domain name so the url will be http://www.domain.com/Blog or http://www.domain.com/WordPress. The last name depends on how you choose to install it on your sever. I have 2 blogs using WordPress.org on my server and the domain names for both are http://www.domain.com/Blog.
With my other host, I wanted to create the whole website using WordPress, so I installed WordPress directly onto the server, so now, when you enter my domain name direclty the whole WordPress site comes up.
WordPress.org has more templates available for it and you can customise it a little more, but the great thing is that it is installed on your server directly, so no messing around with the url http://www.name.wordpress.com. It is on your own server rather than that of WordPress.

How to publish with iWeb on other website instead of MobileMe?

Hi,
I used iweb 3.0 the last time one year ago to publish my website in my mobileme account.
- how can I today publish on another domain?
- do I need also a newver version of iweb to do it an dif yes do I need to buy it or is it aprt of OS-X Lion for example?

You will need to find a 3rd party webhost for your website, I have been using IX Webhosting for several years now with little to no problems "usually the problem was something I did" and they have been quick to solve any issue I have come across.
You specify where your iWeb site will be published from the Site Properties screen. Click the site name in the Site Organizer to display the Publish To pop-up menu. iWeb offers the following publishing options:
Choose where to publish your site.
Publish to MobileMe: This is no longer an option (I use IX WebHosting plans start at $3.95 a mo).
Publish to FTP Server: This publishing option provides you with a completely different collection of settings on the Site Properties screen. You’ll need to furnish iWeb with your Web server’s FTP settings (which should be furnished to you by the host) and your site’s address (or URL).
Publish to a Local Folder: The final publishing option creates a folder on your hard drive that contains all the files to display your Web site. Once again, you must supply the site URL as it will appear on the Internet after you copy or upload the site files to the server.

Error Publishing from iweb 09 - Server or iweb problems??

I upgraded from iweb 08 (I had no issues) to iweb 09, and I have publishing errors more than half the time. Are the mobileme servers having problems, or is there a hack in the iweb software?
This is a big problem because I have 20 Gb of pages with video that I need to re-publish. It is bad enough that I will be tying my network up for 2 weeks, but that I often don't make progress.
The message is "Error connecting to mobileme, check network.. .." The problem is that it uploads for an hour or so before it stops.. I am double checking to see if my routing is causing the problem, but I don't think so..
Is Apple working on this? Are there numerous people who are now stuck re-publishing their sites and the servers are getting beat up? Does anyone know how to diagnose this type of problem?

Finally i solved the issue of Publishing Error in iWeb 09 with MobileMe.
Procedure which i followed and might also help you guys.
Lets say your default site name is XYZ then create a new site e.g. ABC.
Thereafter dragged all pages from default site XYZ to new site ABC ONE BY ONE.
*In the preference folder delete any PLIST files related to iWeb (i had two files in my folder).*
*Once you drag all pages from your default site to new site there after just make a new blank page and publish the site.*
Then start dragging first one page from new site ABC and publish one page. There after repeat all pages one by one and publish after every page you drag from new site ABC to default site XYZ.
Once you finish then take a backup in time machine of the domain.
There after start your blog page then publish again then start photos album page, publish again then your movie page, publish again etc because these are the pages which were mostly creating errors.
After you complete the final page and publish remove the blank page and publish again.
I spent 3 days with the same problem and finally i could finish by this method in few hours.

Cannot publish from iWeb to .Mac, Help please!

I am trying to publish to my site from here in Australia. I was able to publish in the country at the beggining of the trip, but can not now. I get the message "Publish Error - an error occurred while publishing file /Web/Site/iWeb/Site/Blog". I had updated two blog entries and changed the date on an entry. Since then in trying to fix the issue I deleted both of those entries. I have been through .mac support troubleshooting steps to ensure it is not a network error. I have been able to publish to a folder, but when I try to copy the Blog folder from that folder to my iDisk I get "The Finder cannont complete the operation because some data in "" could not be read or written (Error code -36)". Since then they asked that I try to publish from a trial .Mac account or from a new OS X user account on my machine. Both of those attempts failed as well, which they say indicates it's not a .mac account or OS X user set up issue. They asked that I put a copy of my domain file out in the public drive for them to look at, but when I try to do that it goes through and does the copying and then freezes at "Copying Domain.zip to Public, Copied 599.5MB of 599.5MB (Closing file...) - Please wait". Then I get the same error code -36 and am disconnected from iweb. Can anyone out there help please?
Thanks!

Export from iweb to Wordpress

Hi
I've been running a blog via iWeb, but I've been advised to move it to something more SEO-able, and to allow log in from anywhere - Wordpress in fact.
There are quite a few entries in my blog, is there any way of exporting everything from iweb so I can import into Wordpress directly? I'd like to put all the old entries up without having to copy and paste every one.
Thanks
Nigel

How to publish an iWeb website to an already existing wesbite?

I'm updating my companies website using iWeb. I would like to publish the sight but would also like to leave the existing website until all the editing is complete. I've never really used iWeb or any website program before and need some help.
Thanks,
Michael

Hi michael
Why not create a Dir in your Old site Called "test"
Publish your Iweb Site to "test" dir
Then while you are testing you can Navigate to
www.yoursite.com/test/Iwebsite
to see if everything works, and when you are happy, Backup up then delete old site, then publish New Iweb site cleanly to your web server.
