Is it possible to have 2 iWeb sites (not just "Start Site")

I have a great functioning iWeb site, but it is my personal site and I need to create a separate one for my business. Is there a way to do this in iWeb? I don't want to switch back and forth between "start sites"

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Yes, you can have multiple sites. One way is to use iWebSites to create a separate domain file for your second site and switch between the two for editing and publishing. I use iWebSites to manage over 40 individual sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process and move it to another location on your HD until you're satisfied the separation process is completed and what you want.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.
You can have multiple sites in one MobileMe account. They would have their own separate URLs as follows: http://web.me.com/yourMMe_accountname/site name. If you have domain names those would be the URLs you would forward to.

    Doing the following wouldn't hurt either:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.

  • Can iweb be used to update any site or just .mac sites? How?

    Can iweb be used to update any site or just .mac sites? How?

    The URL is http://members.aol.com/MarleneHedgehog.
    I cannot see the iWeb files uploaded with the FTP
    program.
    I tried using shareware HTML Creator 3.5.1 instead
    of
    iWeb. It provided me with an index.html which did
    upload. I also uploaded the ten jpg's separately-
    which did upload . However, when I type the URL
    into
    my browser I do not get the website but the names
    of
    the JPG's appear.
    It looks like your jpgs need to be all in a folder
    called Marlene Pics, because that's where they were
    when you made your main page.
    I'd appreciate any advice. I am not a techie. I
    need
    simple and easy- Many thanks.
    If you are going to use iWeb, I'd recommend you use a
    different host. It's not simple and easy and unless
    you use their own stuff, and even then....
    Hi Tom!
    Thanks for your message. Can you suggest a free host that works well and easily with iWeb?
    Have you ever heard of someone using iWeb successfully with an AOL site?
    Would I be better off forgetting about iWeb and just trying to do an index.html (with HTML Creator3.5.1) and then uploading the jpgs in a folder?
    Am I right in thinking that the "essence" of a website is a correct index.html and the jpgs?
    Thanks again for your advice.
    If you find it easier to contact me directly by e-mail, my e-mail address is [email protected] or [email protected]
    Many thanks again.

    Safari (3.0.4) on Mac OS 10.4.11 has started quitting when viewing news and weather sites - not all sites, not the same sites every day. Help?

    Hi Gary...
    I see you are running v10.4.11 and you have updated Safari but make certain all the system software is up to date by clicking your Apple menu / Software Update.
    If everything is up to date, try resetting Safari from the menu bar.
    Select the top 7 buttons, click Reset.
    Restart your Mac. Launch Safari. Try several of the sites you mentioned.
    has started quitting
    If resetting didn't help, post a crash report.
    If Safari has just crashed, press the Report button on the CrashReporter dialog box to view the crash  information.
    Copy/paste the entire contents of the Crash Reporter window into your reply. If the crash report dialog does not appear or the crash is hard to reproduce, crash logs can be retrieved from the ~/Library/Logs/CrashReporter> folder.

  • How come my comments are visible in iweb but not on published site?

    I published my site (after many frustrating attempts and publish errors) and had allowed comments. I made a blog entry and published to .mac and found out from a friend that that particular entry didn't have an option to add a comment. I tried to republish many times - I don't know how it happened but the comment option showed up eventually. I had the same thing happen again today so I tried publishing again but this time I tried publishing to a folder. Not sure if this caused the problem but now one comment on the blog disappeared and the rest are only visible in iweb and not on the published site - on the published site there isn't an opportunity to add comments where they used to be. Can I get the comments back on my site?
    Thank you for any help.

    Oh, rats. Do I need to remove the folder that I published to? I'm not even sure where to find it. I have republished successfully with the comments still in iweb but they don't show up on-line. I'd really like to get them back on if possible.

  • .Mac "Start Site" not the top site in iWeb site organizer

    My first iWeb site I created is for my family stuff. Mildly personal.
    My next one will be more friends/work.
    But, when I test out the iweb help entry that says the top site in the site organizer is/will be the start site, it does not hold true when I publish them.
    The help says:
    Your start site is the one that opens when you type this URL (address) into a browser (don't type the brackets):
    http://web.mac.com/[YourMemberName]
    To change your start site:
    Drag the site you want to be the start site so that it appears first in the site organizer.
    But, after I publish, the start site is still the old start site. Is this a timing/web cache issue? Or, bug? Or, how can one fix this?

    It could be a cache issue, but I think this is less likely. Never hurts to emtpy your browser cache though. I have seen one other person who's sites are stuck like this. Couldn't tell you why. She is stuck using the long URLs to specify each site. Maybe this is a bug in iWeb. I don't know.
    But here are some things you could try...switch the order of your sites again in the Site Organizer, publish, switch them back and republish. Or you might try a "Publish ALL to .Mac".
    The object here is to get iWeb to generate new index.html files that redirect to your choice of a start page. For a little background, if you look in your iDisk inside the Web folder. There is a folder called Sites. Inside Sites, there is a folder called iWeb. Inside the iWeb folder you will see the first of two redirection index.html files. This first one is what allows the short URL to work...
    http://web.mac.com/yourname/
    Now if you open up the site folder inside the iWeb folder, you will see another index.html file among all the other files there. This is the second index.html file that redirects to the same start page as the first. This allows the "long" URL to be used...
    http://web.mac.com/yourname/iWeb/sitefolder/
    I have seen situations where either one of these index.html files have not been generated or altered to reflect changes in the Site Organizer...usually the outer index.html file inside the iWeb folder. So anything that you can do to make iWeb publish new files should work....changing the order of your sites, erasing the files from your iDisk and republishing, changing the names of your sites, doing a Publish ALL. Try these things and see if your problem isn't resolved...
    If you have found any of this information to be useful to you, please take the time to provide me with feedback by marking my reply as "solved" or "helpful" using those little buttons that you see in the title bar of this reply. I'd really appreciate it!

  • Possible to have video playlists NOT show up in the music playlists tab?

    I like how when I go to videos > video playlists, my iPod will show only the playlists that contain only movies and music videos inside.
    Is it possible to have it so that the video-only playlists are parsed from the music > playlists tab? That section is cluttered enough as it is, and having empty playlists inside really doesn't help.
    Also, anyone have tips for managing large amounts of songs? Since I have a lot of one-hit-wonders, the artist and album tabs has gotten populated with 1-song artists and 1-song albums, making it a pain for browsing through in search of whole albums.
    Maybe I could put a symbol around the artist or album to make it higher or lower in the alphabet. From what I've seen, it goes symbols, numbers, then letters. Is there anything I can use to sort alphabetically in iTunes to be below the letter z?

    I just remembered something; japanese characters (letters) are sorted by iTunes below the letter z. Accented characters (such as ö) get sorted next to their regular (o is higher than ö).
    And so, I think I will go through and find all the albums and artists that only have one song to them and rename them using a japanese character so that they appear at the bottom of the album and artist lists. Should make looking through those much easier.
    I would still like an answer to my first question.

  • Itunes linking to home country site not the US site!

    Can anyone answer the following or state how it can be changed on the box if due to settings?

    Its a bit technical, so bear with me:
    All users originate from a public IP address when accessing a site (be it web site, ecommerce site, bank, or iTunes).
    That IP address can be revealed by going to a website like www.whatismyip.com.
    From this IP address, Geo-location information can be gathered -- this means that it is possible (with a good degree of accuracy) to determine where in the world you are making your request from.
    So, for example -- if you log into an ISP in the States, and hit www.cnn.com, you will appear as a US consumer in their log files. If you hit that web page from Hong Kong, they will know you're from Hong Kong. Some web sites will automatically redirect you to the nearest server to give you the best performance possible. Sometimes e-commerce sites will subscribe to a service, such as Quova to give them richer Geo-Location data about their consumers.
    Here is an example of a Quova look-up for the www.apple.com IP address:
    Name: eg-www.apple.com
    IP Address: 17.112.152.32
    IP Type: Mapped
    Continent: north america
    Country: us
    Region: southwest
    Metro City: sacramento
    Metro State: ca
    State: ca
    City: sacramento
    Zip: 95899
    Latitude: 38.581902
    Longitude: -121.493500
    Timezone: -8.000000
    DMA: 862
    PMSA 6920
    Connection Type: tx
    Line Speed: high
    Top Level Domain: com
    Second Level Domain: apple
    IP Routing Method: international proxy
    AOL: 0
    ASN: 714
    Carrier: apple computer, inc.
    Area Code: 916
    Message: proxy
    It tells us the following information: This host is connected via high speed ehternet (probably gigabit ethernet) to a data center operated by autonomous system number 714 (Apple Computer) in Sacramento, California in area code 916. The IP address is registering as a PROXY because it is believed that more than one machine is located behind that IP address. It is likely that this IP address is a virtual IP address on a load balancer for which there are multiple machines behind it (probably behind a Network Address Translator).
    This information can be gathered for every user that hits the web site -- if it is determined that they originate in London, they can automatically direct you to a London version of the iTunes site regardless of what you may configure as your location.
    IP addresses are managed at a high level by registrars around the world - there are many, ARIN in the US, RIPE in Europe, APNIC in Asia Pacific, etc. Generally speaking, Internet Providers are only supposed to allocate addresses out of ranges in the region they are currently sitting in. This becomes difficult when, for example, you are a provider which gives customers internet access by way of satellite. You may know that a single satellite can provide access for a large region - sometimes many countries simultaneously -- The question then becomes what IP allocations do you give. This is why you can not completely rely on information located at the registrar and companies such as Quova have been able to corner the market with Geolocation data. They collect information in many ways -- in addition to the registrars they also have analysts who continuously contribute to the information to make it more accurate. The database can be updated several times a month based on this new information.
    Hope I've been able to help.

  • Why did Steve decide to eliminate superior products like MobileMe and iWeb and not just raise the price?

    I've been looking into moving 3 web sites that I easily created using iWeb and Mobile me and it is unbarably difficult to use what non Apple users have to put up with.   I was so happy that I could throw a site together for someone and it would just work.   Now I'm looking at 5 times the cost and 1/5th the quality.    Why didn't Apple just raise the price if it was unprofitable?     MobileMe and iWeb are a GREAT service to Apple customers.    I feel this discontinuation is very unfortunate for many.

    Actually, the discontinuation of MobileMe is an opportunity to move on to more professional website hosting and management.  MMe is just too social networking oriented and lacking in serious webstite hosting capability.
    Now I'm looking at 5 times the cost and 1/5th the quality
    You've got to be kidding!  Web hosting that has more hosting features that MMe had is readily available for as little as $3.95/mo. That's only $48/year - aboiut 1/2 of what MMe costs.  Included are a domain name, unlimited storage and transfer, subdomains, multiple email addresses, advanced security features and, something MobileMe never had, 24/7 actual ear-to-ear customer support! What a novel idea.  Actually quickly contacting and talking to a real person to get help on a problem.
    I moved about 30 websites from MMe to my new host in about an hour once the new server was setup. This describes how I did it: iW13 - Easily Transfer Website Folders From MobileMe to a 3rd Party Server.
    This tutorial explains how I host multiple sites with just one domain name: iW16 - Using HostExcellence.com with iWeb. The same can be done with subdomains but the folder method I used was easer in my opinion.
    Depending on your website's design and intented use iWeb an still be a viable web builder.  However, for more complex websites and connecting with mobile users one will have to begin using other applications.  Read the following:
    On June 30, 2012 MobileMe will be shutdown. HOWEVER, iWeb will still continue to work but without the following:
    Features No Longer Available Once MobileMe is Discontinued:
    ◼ Password protection
    ◼ Blog and photo comments
    ◼ Blog search
    ◼ Hit counter
    ◼ MobileMe Gallery
    All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
    I found that if I published my site to a folder on my hard drive and then uploaded with a 3rd party FTP client subscriptions to slideshows and the RSS feed were broken.  If I published directly from iWeb to the FPT server those two features continued to work correctly.
    There's another problem and that's with iWeb's popup slideshows.  Once the MMe servers are no longer online the popup slideshow buttons will not display their images.
    Click to view full size
    However, Roddy McKay and I have figured out a way to modify existing sites with those slideshows and iWeb itself so that those images will display as expected once MobileMe servers are gone.  How to is described in this tutorial: #26 - How to Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
    You can move you 3 websites to a new host in no time and save money doing it.

  • Possible to have node open when Repository starts?

    Good morning everyone.
    Is there a possibility to have the STANDARD Node open when I start my Repository? I have a workarea and a folder in which are all my forms-files. So everytime I start the Repository I want to have open this Tree-Node.
    Do you know how?
    Thanks in advanced

    We feel your pain. How about making the topic that links to the movie the default topic of your help file. That way they'd get to see it every time they open the help. Failing that, try a sledgehammer over their cranium

  • Comments show in iWeb, but not on published site (on Mobileme)

    Does anyone know how I can get the comments I see on my blog entries in the iWeb app to show up on my website when published (I'm using Apple's Mobileme service).
    They have always worked in the past, and I recently redesigned the site. I changed the theme from a predesigned one to the blank white one (and then designed my own look). As stated before I can see the people's comments in iWeb, but when I published all the previous entries (in the new design), the comments aren't showing in the archive page nor the individual entry pages. Is there a fix?

    Oh, rats. Do I need to remove the folder that I published to? I'm not even sure where to find it. I have republished successfully with the comments still in iweb but they don't show up on-line. I'd really like to get them back on if possible.

  • Is it possible to have Iweb generate forms?

    Ok, I have a masked website on .mac for my company. I produce skating seminars for kids. Now:
    1) I have read it is possible to link a paypal icon, so I can accept payment that way I see
    2) I can put a pdf of the registration form to fill print, fill out and email/mail back to me
    HOWEVER, is there anyway to make a page that is the registration that they enter this in fields I guess..and then when they are done and you click a button it does:
    a) send them a copy and myself of their info
    b) sends them directly to the paypal to pay....
    this way, payment is made the same time I get their registration info...
    Anybody know if this is possible, or if there is another way to "cheat" this problem with another idea?
    THANKS MAC BUDDIES!

    I think Freedback can do this for you... http://www.freedback.com
    You can make a free form for yourself there with all of your custom fields. One of the configuration options, if I remember correctly, is to send your visitors to a particular page when they are finished filling out the form. You can specify your PayPal payment page for this URL.
    Placing the Freedback form on your iWeb page will take a little bit of HTML editing, but it's not too difficult. I think varkgirl has a page on this. Here it is...

  • Photo Albums showing up in iWeb but not in published site

    I'm publishing to an FTP server using Transmit. The site address is chrisfitzgeraldmusic.com . All of the other pages publish perfectly, but the photo albums page has never published correctly. In the past, some albums have shown up, others haven't. Within the ones that showed up, some pictures were displayed while others weren't. Just today I tried to fix this by deleting all the albums and putting in a single iPhoto album which I also rebuilt. The album displays perfectly in iWeb, but shows up as a blank photo albums page when I publish it to the FTP server. Any ideas? I'm at my wits end.

    For some reason not all of the files are getting uploaded. Publish to a folder on your hard drive and open the site with your browser to make sure the photos and albums are getting created as they should.
    If you using iWeb's ftp client to upload to your server then try publishing to a folder on the hard drive first and use a 3rd party ftp client like the freeCyberduck or Transmit to upload the files to the server. This might help also: Old Toad's Tutorial #2 - Uploading only those published new or newly edited files when using a 3rd party FTP client.
    If you are already publishing to a folder what ftp client are you using? If it's not Cyberduck give it a try. It's well thought of here in the forums.
