IWeb and Club web site...access restricted to club members

I have just volunteered to 'think about' doing our local harley owners group website since the last webmaster has jacked it in.
The old site has gone and I will have to start from fresh. It will be hosted on a commercial local server with server space and domain name already registered.
I have seen reference to password protected areas of websites created using iWeb, and although possible it does not seem that iWeb is actually designed for the job. Also the threads i have seen do not seem to be referring to multiple usernames and pwds, stored in a database, but rather a single username/pwd
What the proposed new site needs is a public area, plus a private area with each member having access using there own Username and password. The Private area would need a Classified 'For sale ' area with members being to add and upload their own ads.
is this sort of thing possible from within iWeb or is it way outside its capabilities?
I thought it best to ask now...before I build the basic public site, and make a start on the private section...only to then find it is not possible
Thanks
Neil

Something exactly like that....fancy an unpaid job?
Guess I'll have to get to grips with the thing (iWeb) and see what I can do.
Before I ask any more questions, I'll have to have a play with it before asking such things as ....how did you do......
I made this one up using it a week or so ago...

I never really did learn this 'black art' of html design. and have been trying to avoid doing so.

  • I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Is it necessary to add? If so, how do I add H Tags to iweb.

    I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Are they necessary to add?  Why would one add these tags and how do I add H Tags to iweb? And are there examples to look at? I am slowly learning about simple web design and assumed that iweb was stand alone without having to write code. Is this one of the reasons iweb is no longer supported? Thanks for looking at this!

    A simple text page like this:
    Heading
        sub heading
              text paragraph ....
    Is traditionally represented by html tags like:
    <h1>Heading</h1>
         <h2>sub heading</h2>
              <p>text paragraph ... </p>
    I would guess that the use of h1-h6 tags helps search engines to understand the structure of a page as the tags imply a certain structure.
    This can be compared to more generic tags like <div> that could represent any kind of content - and may be what iWeb uses (you'll have to check yourself).
    I would generally recommend that you use some kind of up to date blog/site building tool, perhaps Wordpress or Squarespace (I haven't used either one myself) that support current web technologies - this should reduce your SEO issues and make it easier to properly support mobile/tablet users.

  • Can't access online backup and sharing web site

    Does anyone know how to access the Online Backup and Sharing web site from a computer that does not have the O/B/S software installed?  I used to be able to go to My Verizon/My Services/Internet and hit "Launch" for O/B/S, and the link would go directly to the web site for uploading or downloading material.  Now, that link takes me to a Verizon page that asks to activate the O/B/S service, and wants to download the software.  My O/B/S service was activated years ago and has worked until recently without the software installed.  There is no other obvious way to get to the O/B/S web site.  (If it matters, I tried this in both IE 9, with Windows 7 64-bit, and Safari.)
    After some effort, I got the help number for the outside vendor that runs the O/B/S service.  They say that the Verizon web site should link directly to their O/B/S web site, regardless of whether or not the O/B/S software is installed locally, but that the failure to do so is entirely an error of Verizon's on the Verizon web site and they have nothing to do with it.  They also said there is no way to bypass the Verizon web site to get to a Verizon O/B/S account on their web site.  They said they have received many complaints about this from Verizon O/B/S customers, and that the same problem has even arisen when the O/B/S software is installed on the local computer.
    So does anyone know if it is really necessary to install the O/B/S software on any computer used to access O/B/S, and if it is now impossible to access the material from any other computer?  That would be a major reduction in the usefulness of the service that was not announced anywhere that I know of.  I saw a strong of comments on this issue in the Forums from a few years ago, but the conclusion was that the problem had been fixed.  It seems to have arisen again.

    Anthony, I tried to private message you several times, but I kept getting an error message stating that my message had invalid HTML that was being removed, and to resend.  It did not actually have any HTML, and hitting the resend button just led to the same message.
    Also, since my last post, I downloaded the OBS software onto my computer.  This gave me access to OBS from that computer.  However, even after doing this, I cannot use the old method of directly getting to the OBS web site from My Verizon.  The link from "Launch" does not work either on the computer with the OBS software or on any other computer.  Rather, the link goes only to the Verizon page saying that my OBS service has not been activated (which it surely has been) and asking to download the OBS software.
    If this is happening to everyone and not just to me, this means that material stored on OBS is only available from a computer that has the OBS software downloaded on it.  That is certainly not supposed to be the case, and it would make OBS much less useful.
    Again, the OBS technical people said that this was a problem that they knew about, but it was entirely a problem with the Verizon web site that they could not do anything about.

    Chapter 2.3 on the iWeb FAQ.org site has tips on using some of the existing files, image, audio, video, etc., from the published site in the creation of the new site with iWeb.

  • I have a new printer which behaves OK except it will not print directly from a web site accessed via Firefox. We do not have this problem if accessed via another browser. Suggestions?

    New printer is Brother MFCJ615W. OS is XP. Computer is quite old Dell. Printer also refuses to print pictures from .jpg files - but the fact that I can print direct from web sites accessed via another browser suggests some of the problem is with Firefox. I asked this a few days ago and got an email reply giving me a link to click on - but this only produced an error message.

    I think I solved the wifi connection problem, just by switching off completely the router! sounds trivial, but in this case it worked!!!
    the funny behaviour of the trackpad/cursor still persists. any suggestion???
    thanks again

    Check on the setting, as far s i know it was there by going on tools>options> privacy then check it out. If there was no changes, what i can suggest is try to update your firefox.

  • Unable to delete a SharePoint 2010 My Sites content Database and IIS Web Site even after changing timeout

    Hi,
    I am currently having issues with deleting a content database for mysites which has web application http://<servername>:11100. The database was migrated from sharepoint 2010, but on creating web app it timed out (was corrupt due to this).  Problem
    is I cannot delete now as I get "Request Timed Out". Even when I try just deleting the Web App or the Content Database individually. I have already updated the timeout on the Central Admin App Pool to 300. This used to work, but no joy now. Seems
    like ever since I added this My Sites Web App I am getting this problem.
    The setup is 1 Database Server (64GB), 1 Admin Server (24GB) and 3 WFE Servers (12GB each) - all VMS. System is also running PowerPivot. Central Admin is running on a WFE server. Is this setup OK for just one user? Reason I have 3 WFE is this already existed
    and App Servers will be scaled out when we start testing. Running 11 Web Applications.
    Help appreciated - any ideas?
    Thanks.
    John.
    OH - I tried to delete with powershell and it tells me it requires SHarePoint Administration Service to be running, but the problem is it is already running on the WFE with Central Admin on.

    Hi John,
    The timeout may cause this issue. But would you let me know the error message when we delete the database?
    However, you can delete the web application(my site host) and click delete database and IIS web site option.
    Also, you can try to clean cache and check if issue persists:
    Please stop SharePoint Timer Service.
    Please navigate to the cache.ini file location:                  
    Delete all the .xml file and only leave cache.ini in the file location.                  
    Edit the Cache.ini file and set it to 1.                 
     Save the Cache.ini file
      Start SharePoint Timer Service. The cache file will be created autumnally.
    Any questions, please let me know.
    Best Regards,
    Dats Luo

  • IWeb not updating web site.

    iWeb started out working okay. I kept a blog and updated it. Then I went on a trip. Even though I had wireless internet the whole time, updating kept failing. No error message, but the update clock would stop after being about one-quarter filled. When I came home, there was no difference.
    Although this started months ago (before the whole .Mac to MobileMe changeover), I do believe my recent inability to update my web site is related to it. The reason is that although I can access the last updated version of my web site at "web.me.com/myaccountname", when I go to my current iDisk and open the "sites" folder, it's empty!
    Is it possible that my account has not yet been changed over to MobileMe yet? I have already installed all OS updates, including the MobileMe update. My account logs in fine.
    Any ideas?????

    Hey maybe you need to replace only the page that was updated, do not change all the published site, try I just did it and it work I have change a page and a file to be downloaded from the web site, now I can see the changes live on the web. this is what I wrote to others.
    Hey I have found not a solution but a way to publish without iWeb, Just did it and I have seen the changes on the web site. If you guys want to try:
    I have published my updated web site to a folder on my desktop. then open iDisk from the web (where my web sites files are stored for everyone else to see) then open both windows side by side and only replace the files of the updated pages from the desktop folder to the iDisk folder, there is always a file and a folder with the same name. I just replace them, I then checked on the web and Woalah! changes were made. Well... it did work for now without iWeb, not sure if is the right thing to do but if you are brave enough to follow this go ahead and go to bed as I will until the bug is fixed (hopefully tomorrow) then we can go back to normal. Hope is clear and it help! Rog

  • Deleted pages in iWeb and on hosting site but still appear in navbar?

    I've deleted a couple of pages in a site built in iWeb and also deleted the files and html of those pages where my site is hosted (Earthlink). However, I'm still seeing the names of those pages in the navbar — NOT in iWeb, but when i actually access the site. The pages themselves are not there anymore, but their names remain in the navbar (and click through to an error msg).
    This makes me think I haven't uploaded all the necessary changes. Where does the code for the navbar reside? I reloaded the home file+html (among other pages) but not the index.

    If you are using the iWeb default navigation, try publishing to a local folder and upload the feed.xml with your FTP application.

  • Using iWeb '09 when web site was built in iWeb'08

    I built my web site on iWeb '08 and made frequent changes using Yummy. Last month I upgraded to iWeb '09 and attempted to change the Newsletter page (one of the five pages). The content of the Newsletter page upgraded but I lost my navigation ability at the top of the page. All the other pages have the ability to navigate between each other, but all I have on the Newsletter page is a black dot in the left corner.
    The site is www.windsorseniormensgc.com
    I'm afraid to upgrade the rest of the pages for fear of losing the navigation ability for the whole site. Can anyone assist me here?

    This usually means you haven't uploaded the feed.xml file. In your case it's probably because the one on the server needs to be updated.
    To reassure yourself that everything will be OK, publish your entire site to a local folder and launch it in the browser direct from your hard disk by double clicking the index.html file.
    If all is well, republish the whole site and the new feed.xml should sort out the navigation issue.

  • Web site access

    I need to access a web site to add info. I have received instructions for windows xp to access the web site files in "my network places" and have the user name and password for the website. What is the equivalent instruction for Mac?

    If it's a regular smally website then users tend to upload files using FTP (File Transfer Protocol). I have a small website we will call www.website.com which is managed by a company called ISP. I use an FTP client to upload the jpgs, html file etc.In the FTP Client I enter the ftp address which is ftp://ftp.isp.com
    I then enter my user details which are [email protected] and mypassword. The FTP client then presents me with a window/dialogue box where I can see all the files currently on that website probably in the form of isp.com/website/public_html/... Then I can upload and download files as required using the client
    Hope that makes some sense. There are hundreds of FTP clients... as of today my favoured one is OneButtonFTP here are a wide selection.

  • Iweb,fetch,existing web site

    Hi and thanks in advance! I currently have a web site dianabeads.com, which I edit and update through parallel desk top and windows xp and front page. I am trying to figure out how to do it with iweb and fetch so I can get windows off of my mac, I have played with setting up a page in iweb, so easy have opened fetch and viewed my current web site, but when I go to "put" on fetch i cant find where the file (new page) is that I want to transfer. I can be reached at [email protected] thanks again. Tom Bunten

    The main reason for not publishing direct from iWeb would be that a lot of people want to optimize and/or add tags.
    The three applications that I use for this - WSM, WebCrusher and iWeb SEO tool will all upload to an iDisk with one click to save you the extra steps for drag and drop.
    However, if you want to optimize and retain the iWeb features like hit counter, comments etc, you have to publish to MobileMe first anyway. If this is the case, I would agree that there is every good reason for publish direct from iWeb.
    If you follow this thread ...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1743049&start=15&tstart=0
    .... you will see how Old Toad's brilliant and perceptive mind has opened the door to successfully achieving the seemingly impossible task of optimizing and retaining these features.

  • Session Idle time and public web pages access

    Hi
    The idle timeout can happen when authenticated user requests only public web pages on the site (pages in notenforced_list) . Following request to the protected pages is possible only throw the annoying login page.
    I need to configure AM to track access to the public web pages for authenticated users. And so, idle timeout will only possible, if authenticated user actually not sends any requests to the site.
    Please give me an ideas, how it is possible.
    Only one bad solution i know:
    To put hidden image to the all public site pages, which is protected by policy agent. Every request to the public pages will be enforced by policy agent (throw request to the hidden image). And there is no idle timeout when authenticated user actually still active on the site.
    Roman.
    PS: AM 7.1 update 1 on Sun App Server 8.2. Web site on the Sun Web Server 7

    We are find a trouble.
    The answer is for history:
    The idle timeout can happen when authenticated user requests only public web pages on the site (pages in notenforced_list)The idle time can happend only if Policy Agent has no mapping (profile or session) attributes to the HEAD or COOKIE to the HTTP request. If at leats one attribute (profile or session) is mapped, then all work propertly. There is no Access Manager Session Idle timeout in this case.
