IWeb 1.1 comments and language

After the 1.1 update, which supports comments for the first time, I tried out this new feature today. My iWeb site is totally in Dutch, and up to now this has worked fine: all navigational items and titles are in Dutch, as it ought to be. However, after allowing comments (as prescribed in the help), in a fixed place on the page (can this be changed, independently of a template, BTW?) there appears the item "Add a Comment" and not in Dutch (something like "Reageer"
or something similar), and this cannot be changed, it seems. Also, after posting a comment (which worked fine) the comment itself is concluded by a date/time stamp, which is also in English, and not in Dutch, as other date/time stamps on the site.
Is there a way to change this language setting for comments, or is this a bug in iWeb: not adapting the language of the comment environment to the language of the template? Or is it (now) impossible to do this?
Thanks in advance for any helpful advice.

Stella
I don't know if this will solve your problem but
there is a thread at this location. It discusses
a language bug in OS Tiger and offers a work around.
Read those postings and let us know in the thread if
it helped.
t isn't relevant, I'm afraid, as all settings are Dutch, and no other language is even in the language menu (none have been added, that is), iWeb is totally in Dutch, as is OS X, and all other apps. So the English that surfaces in the comments is a stand alone effect, and is probably due to what the other replyer posted: the first version is only done in English. I have already informed Apple via the feedback form, and I hope that 1.1.1 resolves this (and will update all older pages with english comments as well).
Thank to those who have replied

Iweb'09 blog comments and google analytics

My apologies if this has been asked before.
My blog no longer allows comments. This occurred when I used the Automator program to add google analytics to my site. The good news is that google analytics does work. I host the site on mobile me so I have 2 questions
(1) Is there a way to get google analytics to work and allow blog comments within a moble me hosted site?
if not, how can I remove google analytics to restore the blog comment capability and is there a monitoring package available within the mobile me world?
thanks

I had the same problem. From the little research I've done it appears that you can't have the comments on and run GA at the same time. I have seen some messages on here that claimed to move a picture on the pages that had comments in order to restore the ones that were lost. I didn't have any luck with it.
Here's and interesting site that references it in the comments section.

IWeb'09 Blog Comments and non mobile hosting

Is there a workaround to enable blog comments if you are not using mobile me to host your website.
Also, is there a reason (other than driving more business to the mobile me service) that blog comments don't automatically work with other sites?
thanks

Haloscan is one.

The system used to create them depends on software located on the MobileMe server.

Script to change photo caption in iWeb to iPhoto comment text

Hi,
Does any body know, how I could automatic replace the caption of the photos I have imported from iPhoto with the Media Browser to iWeb with the comment text I have in iPhoto for every photo?
It should be just a script, which gets told the album and the looks for the file name which is in the caption, reads the comment for the photo in iPhoto and then puts replaces the caption with it in iWeb, then the next photo ...
I'm not good in scripting.;-(
Thanks and Regards,
JO

Ok, here my script, what I'm using now to copy the comment to the title in iPhoto before importing the photos to iWeb:
try
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
copy (my selected_images()) to these_images
if these_images is false then ¬
error "Please select the images."
display dialog "Copy comment to title for the selected photos?"
set the image_count to the count of these_images
display dialog "Processing " & (the image_count as string) & " photos." & return & return & "This will take a moment..." buttons {"•"} default button 1 giving up after 2
repeat with i from 1 to the image_count
set this_photo to item i of these_images
tell this_photo
set the title to the comment of this_photo
end tell
end repeat
end tell
on error error_message number error_number
tell application "iPhoto"
activate
if the error_number is not -128 then
display dialog error_message buttons {"OK"} default button 1
end if
end tell
end try
on selected_images()
tell application "iPhoto"
try
-- get selection
set these_items to the selection
-- check for single album selected
if the class of item 1 of these_items is album then error
-- return the list of selected photos
return these_items
on error
return false
end try
end tell
end selected_images

IWeb issues with comments

I have read through many posts about this issue but have not been able to resolve my problem. I have been running my iweb site with a domain since the beginning of the year. I have had issues with the comments form not loading properly before but it has always fixed itself. The problem I am having currently has been going on for almost 10 days now.
I have reloaded my site many times. I have uploaded it without comments, and then with comments again. I have checked my DNS hosting and it is being routed to web.me, I have checked mobileme and my domain is web.me, I have checked iWeb and it has @me.com. Yet, when the comments form loads it goes to mac.com. I have tried this on my hubby computer and it seemed to load fine, yet on my computer and those of some of my friends, have said they are unable to load.
I am very frustrated and don't know where to head next. I am computer savvy but not enough to get into code and all that. Is anyone able to help me?

Same problem here. The form to add comments on an iWeb blog published on MobileMe is broken. It doesn't load all the objects correctly, and site visitors cannot comment. I wonder if it's some kind of server-side error. When using Safari's JavaScript debug console, I get this:

Comments and Podcasts

Can some help me get the comments and pod-cast features to work without using a .Mac site?

For comments, you will use the iComment/Haloscan combo. Read about it here...
http://web.mac.com/cbrantly/iWeb/Software/iComment.html
I think this works better and is much more configurable than the Apple commenting system anyway. You can also use iComment to add the StatCounter hit counter, since the Apple hit counter won't work without .Mac either.
As far as your Podcast goes, everything should function just fine on a non-.Mac server. When you do the "Publish to Folder" routine, though, you need to type in your webserver directory into the URL field so that iWeb can form the Podcast RSS.xml feed file for you. For example, if your host domain name is http://www.mydomain.com that's what you'll need to enter.
Then when you go to upload your site, make sure that you upload the two things inside the folder where you published to. Those two things should be the index.html file and a folder with your site name. Just add these two items to your FTP program for upload and upload them into the same directory on your server so that they are sitting next to one another.

I am building a website using IWEB, on my computer, and I am stuck suddenly, the page I made yesterday is hidden by another page and I cannot pursue..
Is there a way to learn the process, also I see a contradiction with ILIFE 2011, reading about an announcement of Steve Jobs....? that iWeb would not longer be??

How is the first page hidden by the other page? Where are you experiencing this problem? In iWeb's window or in the browser window of the published site?
Are you referring to the page's link in your navbar? If so check the Inspector/Page/Page pane for the "hidden" page and make sure it's set to be included in the navbar. If that's not the problem describe in detail what you mean and include any screenshots you can make of the problem.
As far as the longevity of iWeb read the following:
As you now know iWeb and iDVD have been discontinued by Apple. This is evidenced by the fact that new Macs are shipping with iLife 11 installed but without iWeb and iDVD.
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
Currently if the site is published directly from iWeb to the 3rd party server the RSS feed and slideshow subscription features will work. However, if the site is first published to a folder on the hard drive and then uploaded to the sever with a 3rd party FTP client those two features will be broken.
All of these features can be replaced with 3rd party options.
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.

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: iW14 - Modify iWeb So Popup Slideshows Will Work After MobileMe is Discontinued.
NOTE: the iLife 11 boxed version Is no longer available at the online Apple Store. To get a copy you'll have to try Amazon.com or eBay.com.

Missing comments and visit counter advise

I migrated to iweb09. When I open the file I work with, it contains the visit counter and
about 16 comments. I added a few things and republished the updates. Now my site no longer
contains the visit counter or the comments. Any ideas on how to get them to upload? Everything
was fine until I started using the new version of Iweb. Are there any settings I may need to know about on the new version of Iweb etc. Thanks.

Although these Apple docs don't refer to iWeb '09, perhaps there's something useful in them:
iWeb: Preserving website comments when upgrading from iWeb 1.x to 2.0
_iWeb: Lost blog comments after republishing to MobileMe_
Also, MobileMe live chat support is now 24/7 — see this announcement.
As problems with iWeb's blog are a recurring theme on these forums, you may want to consider using a more reliable blogging platform than iWeb's — see the following thread started by a concerned person which has a satisfactory ending with a non-iWeb blog:

I have created a PDF and password protected it for view. However, when reading the PDF in Adobe Reader app on the iPad the commenting and annotation options are not available. Is there a way to allow commenting and annotation in the app while password protecting the document?

Is there a setting that needs to be set to allow the annotation features? I set password protection to open and then password for editing and set it to Any except page extraction, but it still did not give the annotation option

Problem with set-up: Blackberry ID- country and language

Hello, I am setting up my Playbook tablet for the first time and have hit a snag on the third or fourth screen. I am supposed to enter my country and language for Blackberry ID, but I see only 'No country indicated' and I find no way to enter a country and language, as prompted. According to the tutorial, this screen should show a language option immediately. I went to get a Blackberry ID, through my e-mail address but it is obviously not 'connected' in any way (yet) to my Playbook tablet.
I hope someone might help me with this and I will certainly appreciate said help! Must say the obvious, I am new to this forum, but I am sure I am posting my question in the right forum.
Thanks a lot!
Solved!

No worries, It could have been that you lost connection. Doing this will make sure that you are connected. Sometimes you may need to delete the connection and try setting up again and then going further will display what you are looking for.

This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between models when on the internet I.e. Facebook when after your comment and you cannot hit "enter" on an iPad for examp. And speed is slow to connect. What is = to post?

This might be a simple question. On those sites that do not differentiate between CRT, laptop, tablet etc. such as an iPad Mini and using the Facebook site fir example when going to post a comment and you do not have a enter button on the IPad and the speed is slow how do you get your comments to post if we do not have a enter button?

Feature request: better tools for commenting and editing text

We currently use a comments-enabled Acrobat workflow with InDesign to track changes to our large catalog project. Was hoping to move our team over to CS Live, but currently the commenting tools are sub-par, and not accurate enough for extensive text editing. My request would be to imitate the text editing functionality of Acrobat:
In CS Live online:
- allow users to be able to copy selected text. (This is useful when a reviewer wants to be able to modify a sentence or paragraph. It's a headache now to have to retype the sentence prior to making modifications)
- Ability to highlight text and hit "delete" to mark text as deleted, or highlight and type over to indicate replaced text
- Ability to click to insert text, and have the comment appear with the inserted text designation (little blue carat like in Acrobat)
- ability to highlight a section of text
In InDesign:
- ability to copy the text in a comment and NOT copy all the other extraneous meta data. (Currently, if you click "copy text", it will copy the comment along with all the details about the comment. For example, "- Amy Stewart [10.06.11 at 12:56 PM]"
- ability to see in InDesign the EXACT part of the text that needs to be modified. Right now, the red box outlines the general area. The CS Review panel shows a tiny thumbnail with black highlight over the area of text that needs to be changed, but unfortunately, there's no way to zoom in on it, so you're stuck having to toggle between InDesign and the online review, where it's possible to zoom. (This diminishes the utility of the CS Review panel.)
If you were able to incoroprate all the commenting functionality of Acrobat, I think you'll have a winner. But right now, we're going to have to stick with Acrobat as it's the only way to easily modify text.

Sorry if I might be stating the obvious (but at least I was such a *dummy* once that I needed this explicitely):
In order to move the sequence of images per drag&drop in grid view you need to
Put the sort order in the bottom toolbar to "user order" (toggle visibility with letter T if not displayed)
Grab an image from within its thumbnail, not from its border-cell.
When you move around you see a vertical black thick line wandering in between images where you would be able to drop it
Put the images first into a collection in case they should be spread across multiple folders.
This is the reason why most often from a filter result you cannot re-arrange.
Still sometimes it does not work as I want, but can *be persuaded*, i.e. I repeat the same trial after first moving to another collection, then return back. I can't nail it down sufficiently to file a bug.
For an automated sorting according to filename (chosse that setting finally in toolbar) you could rename the photos in place, without exporting & re-importing. Just select them and hit <F2> to bring up the renaming dialog like possible during import.
+1 vote from me, as I am neither satisfied with the responsiveness of moving folders within LR e.g. from laptop hard disk to NAS.
Apart from that I try not to build much on my folder structure, just break them into manageable quantities and have a quick "diary-overview" by using naming convention "YYYY-MM-DD description of event" (pictures of up to 4 cameras go inside, unique filenames for Canons achieved by renaming during import). For all the rest I prefer to build (smart) collections.

Desktop Software does not detack BB 6 System Software and Language

Hi,
I wanted to install other languages back to my phone (currently only English). However, my Desktop Software 6.1.0.36 installed in Vista does not detect and display BB 6.0.0 system software, and so is language option. BI can see other installed software, even the application installed a day ago, but just cannot see the OS and language.
I tried installed the Desktop Software to other PC, but they were not detected and displayed either. I checked with my other friends, they are able to see the System OS and Language. What can i do ? Anybody encounter the same problem ?
Thanks.

Kindly look for the device requirement online and see if your pc met all the needed requirements.
