HT2548 How can I resolve a conflict of 2 different iWeb Domains in my Library?

Question

I somehow (using 2 different Macs) created 2 different iWeb domains (Domain and Domain 1) and now need to combine them into one Library on my new iMac. How can I resolve this issue? I want to be able to merge Domain 1 into Domain, so I can also FTP publish the pages in Domain 1 to my new webhosting service, (in addition to the many others I've already published from Domain). But I don't know how to merge them or even if it's possible? Can anyone help me out with this? This is the last thing I need to do before moving to iCloud. Thanks.

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.
