IWeb site copied by commercial site???

Is this the first instance of this? Either way, I thought it was funny.
First, check http://wii.ign.com to see their image for their Wii E3 wrapup.
then
Check my site from a few weeks ago.

Coincidence...or something more sinister? LOL!

There is a program called snippetmaster I am implementing on my sites and allows my clients to edit the images and content you specify. You can restrict access to certain areas too, so they can't screw up the site. It will take time to implement them on your pages, but it is worth it when its done.

  • How to copy iWeb blog to new iWeb site?

    Hi Folks,
    I am able to successfully move, via drag and drop, my blog from an old iWeb site to a new one in iWeb.
    However, what I want to do is to preserve the old blog as a backup, and them start updating and chagging the blog contet in the new iWeb site. I actually use the blog on my site as a way to list courses.
    I've tried to copy files in the iWeb site files, and then reopen iWeb, and I can't see the blog page listed.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Inoshi

    To be able to drop and drag from one site to another in iWeb, you firstly need to have iWeb 09.  You then need to open the relevant domain.sites file and you need to have the sites underneath each other, so Site1 above and then Site2 below and all you do is just click on the Blog page on Site1 and just drag it over and down to Site2.
    You can't do it individually, but you need to drag from one site to another.
    I would also advise that you don't use the iWeb blog, as it is not that good and there are better alternatives out there.
    You might like to look at some new software too such as EverWeb - http://www.everwebapp.com.  It is very like iWeb, but is actively supported and developed whereas for the last 2 years, iWeb has not been and has not been sold by Apple either.
    If you wanted a better blogging system, you could transfer your whole website into WordPress.org.  You need to install it on a server at your web host, but it might serve you better and you can create a blog it you want to and you can extend it with the use of plugins.  Would not take too long to re-create depending on the size of your site and it is relatively easy to use compared to the other CMS's.
    Think about changing before iWeb becomes unusable.

  • How to copy/paste iWeb site

    Hi!
    3 questions...
    1) How do I copy and paste my existing iWeb websites pix and text and links and so forth into a newly created iWeb website?
    2) How do I create new iWeb site name
    3) How do I delete the old site?

    The only inane question is the one not asked. The best way to backup your web site is to make a backup copy of your Domain.sites2 file that is in the User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. Varkgirl has an Automator work flow that will copy it to another location of your choice. I believe you can find it on  Varkgirl's iWeb Tips and Tricks site or use this link to directly download it: Click Here. I believe it makes a zipped copy of the domain file and moves it to the location of your choice. It can take a while depending on the size of your site.
    Since I have over 45 individual sites I use a backup application to backup it up after each time I edit and/or publish. After the initial backup the application, Synk Standard,it only backs up those new or changed files in the domain file(s). Much quicker that backing up the entire file(s).
    If you have an external hard drive you can just drag the domain file to it after each use, replacing the previous one - if you don't have a backup program.
    It's all one big learning curve here in the discussions. Some of us are just on a different part of the curve than others. Good luck.

  • Can I copy my iweb site to a DVD

    Can I copy a published iweb site to a  DVD

    Publish to a folder and burn that folder to a DVD.
    The burn command is in the Finder's File menu.
    Or right-click the folder and choose the command from the menu.
    Or create a burn folder and drag the files there. Then click the burn button.

  • How to copy one of my iWeb sites to another computer

    I have version 3.0.2 of iWeb.
    I created a site for someone else on my computer and now I want to give/transfer that site to another computer that has iWeb.
    How do I do this? I read something about all the iWeb files being in the Application Support/iWeb/Domain file, but having never heard of this before, I don't know how to JUST load that SINGLE site and not all of my iWeb sites.
    I was hoping that it was/is something as easy as copying and pasting a Word document.
    Help?
    Sara

    Duplicate the domain file that contains all of the sites. Move it to the other computer and open it with iWeb. Select the sites that you don't want and delete them from within iWeb leaving just the one site.

  • Paypal button in iWeb site

    any idea how to introduce a PayPal payment button into an iWeb site. Paypal give a section of HTML but i don't know how to apply it to the site i am creating for commercial use.

    Here's how I got a paypal button on my site at:
    http://www.rowan-cottage.co.uk/Site/ShopBlog/ShopBlog.html
    Go to Paypal and create your button. You'll get to a page with all the HTML needed. Copy this HTML.
    Open a text box on your page the size of the button eg, 62 px by 31 px.
    Type in the box some recognisable, unique text, eg, PaypalHTML, and change the font size of it so that's it fits in the tiny text box. You can horizontally centre the text or position it left or right, but don't vertically align it otherwise the text box changes into a png. You want it to remain a text box.
    Publish.
    Open the page in your text/HTML editor.
    Find and replace the text 'PaypalHTML' with the actual Paypal HTML.
    That's it. That way there's no alignment problems and it goes where you want it to.
    You use the same principle with banners served by other parties, scripts etc. See my links page for more examples:

  • How to edit the same iWeb site on 2 different Macs?

    How can I edit the same iWeb site on 2 different Macs? I know we create a folder with the files, but when copying that to Mac2, iWeb on Mac2 doesn't see that folder - I can't see what the linkage is between the app's interface and the folder of site files....

    The answer is Domain.sites (extension hidden by default). You'll find this on the Mac you used to create the site at Users/YourUserName/Library/Application Support/iWeb. Copy that file to removable media and drag it to the same location on the other Mac. Launch iWeb and you'll see the site structure in the Site Organizer.
    Once you keep the Domain package in sync between the two machines everything will work smoothly no matter which you use. There's a neat tip here which may help in this respect, but you use whatever strategy you prefer:

  • How can I transfer JUST ONE IWeb site to another computer?

    I am new to making IWeb sites and am now making them for
    other people. I have about 10 sites in my IWeb folder and need to
    be able to give a person's site to them.
    I need to be able to transfer JUST ONE site to another computer.
    Right now, I am only able to transfer ALL the sites I have made to
    another mac and then, it wipes out all their sites! How can I prevent
    the ultimate wipe out of all their iweb sites yet give them JUST ONE
    of mine?
    thank you in advance,
    Beth http://www.yourzensite.com

    First, read Wyodor's post about changing the publishing settings HERE.
    You can create the extra folders in Home Folder/Library/Application Support/iWeb or, as I do, in a folder named iWeb in the Home folder.
    Create a folder for each website, give it a suitable name and paste the Domain.sites2 file with all the websites into each.
    Open each one in turn, double click the Domain.sites2 file to launch it in iWeb, delete all the sites except the one whose name is the same as the folder name, save and quit.
    Now you can launch any site individually in iWeb and sent a copy of the appropriate folder to the client.

  • How do I fix an error "4652747.png" when publishing my iWeb site to iMac?

    Every time I try to publish my iWeb site to .Mac I get an error message that says there's an error in " ...files/ca4652747.png." I know this is an image file, but when i search for it on my hard drive it shows a blank image. I've tried deleting the file from the hard drive but when I re-publish, a second file "c00ff001c.png" on a different web page shows the same error. I can't figure out how to fix these errors. It publishes to a folder, or so it says, but i don't know how to check that. I am supposed to publish the entire site at the end of this week and have all the work done but can't get past this point. Can anyone help me? I'm a new mac user and this is my first shot at web design, so I've probably missed something obvious, but would appreciate any help.

    k, try this:
    backup your domain file! delete the one in the folder BUT HAVE A COPY OF IT SOMEWHERE ELSE. Then open iWeb, create something save it and publish it!
    now go to your backuped file,make one more backup!!!!
    move one of the backuped files into the Users/username/bblablabla folder and open iWeb. try publish all and see if it works!

  • Merge iweb sites from multiple user accounts on same computer

    With the previous iweb version, my children created their own iweb sites on their own users, but all under my own .mac account. It worked great.
    But now with the new "upgraded" iweb '08, that isn't allowed anymore.
    So, I created a new user on our computer for all of us to use to maintain our multiple iweb accounts on.
    How can I move multiple iweb sites from multiple users on the same computer into one user?

    Each of the user's work in iWeb will be contained in a single file, Domain.sites2, which can be found in this location on the hard drive for each user account. You will need to copy all of these Domain.sites2 files to an external drive, or, at the very least, burn them to a disk to make them transferable from one user account to another. A flash drive also works great for this.
    Once you have made all of these Domain files accessible from the new user account that you created, you will still have a formidable task ahead of you, i.e., publishing separate sites, from separate Domain.sites2 files, to the same .Mac account/directory. In other words, bringing all of these Domain files together for access by a single user account will not solve the problem. You may very well be able to solve the problem with things the way they are, but it will involve some shuffling of Site's files on the iDisk prior to publishing.
    The method I'm going to give you has worked well for me. So far, here in the forums, I've read posts from (2) other users who were also successful. Conversely, I know of at least (3) other users who have been unsuccessful with this approach. I sure hope it works for you.
    Open System Preferences and go to .Mac. Turn syncing off, if it is on, and leave it off.
    Now, in Finder, navigate to the current Site files on your iDisk, following this path:
    Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites/NameOfSiteFolder
    Drag the Site folder that is named for your site, (not the directory Site folder), back one level on the iDisk, into the Web folder. This is where some run into difficulties--you may get an error message that the folder is "in use, and cannot be moved". I have never gotten this message, and am able to move my Site's folders around with no problem on the iDisk.
    If you are successful moving the folder, choose one of your other accounts on your machine, launch iWeb, and Publish all to .Mac. The existing site on the server will not be deleted. Now, go back to the iDisk and move that site folder, (the one you just published), back one level, again, to the root Web directory. Publish your next site, from your next account.
    When you are finished publishing sites, just move the Site folders back to their original location on the iDisk--Web/Sites/SiteFoldersHere. All sites will be accessible from a browser using the web.mac.com/username/nameofsite url.
    It is important to use the Publish all to .Mac command in iWeb. A simple Publish to .Mac command will not put the correct index.html file in place on the server.
    Post back and inform us of your success.

  • How do I get my old iweb sites into the new iweb 08 after upgrading?

    I upgraded and now the new iweb 08 does not see all my old web site pages. How do Igetnthem into the new application?

    I had a similar issure after buying a new iMac and trying to get my iweb sites onto the new computer. I called Apple tech support and they told me to copy the file "domain.site" form the user/library/application support/iweb folder from my old imac into the iweb folder located in the same directory on my new computer. Once it is copied to the new location, double click on the "domain.site" file and it should open in the new iweb program. They told me to check all the pages to make sure it works OK in the program. My problem is that the new iweb program crashed everytime I double click on the "domain" file. Hope this helps.

  • How do I get my Old iWeb Sites off my External HD (1 Domain file) and onto my new internal HD?

    I justrecently had to replace my internal HD on my iMac. Before doing it, I backed up my 2 iWeb Sites (the Domain File) onto my external HD.
    Now I have a new Internal HD on my iMac.
    When I open my domain file located on my external HD, iWeb opens. Now I'd like to save the file back onto my internal HD.
    How do I save my 2 web sites that I now see on the left back onto my internal HD. (When I click on "File", "Save", it just saves it again on the external HD, because it's reading the file from the external HD?)
    Thanks....
    Brian

    You need to copy the domain.sites file from the external hard drive into your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder on the new hard drive. If there is no iWeb folder in the Applicaiton Support folder create one.
    Be sure it's your home library that you're working in.

  • Two users on same machine working on same iWeb site

    Hi
    We have two users on our new iMac because some things we want to keep separate. But we both want to work on our iWeb site when we feel like it, from our own account.
    I copied the domains file into Users\Shared and it appeared we could both work on it from there. But then I found that each blog entry becomes only partially editable by the other user. iWeb doesn't complain when I save, but it isn't actually saving the changes to blog entries that were started by the other user.
    Can anyone please help tell me how two users are supposed to work on the same iWeb blog? Thank you!

    I would also like to know the answer to this.
    Thanks!

  • How can I import my iweb site into iweb on my new laptop?

    I recently got a new MacBook Pro and transferred my files over from my PBG4 12-inch (great little laptop). However my iWeb files/site didn't seem to transfer over to my laptop. I found the files of on my PBG4, and thought I placed them in the correct folder on my one.
    Every time I open iWeb it asks to start a new site. How can I import my old iweb site into it and continue with it? Is there a way of doing it? I've a read a few posts some talk about the file 'Domain' in the Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder.
    If I copy that file over to my new MacBook Pro, will my site be in iWeb again? I greatly appreciate some advice. Thanks.
    MacBook Pro   Mac OS X (10.4.8)  

    Isotopecrunch,
    Welcome to the iWeb forums!
    You are correct about referring to the Domain file; this is the file that contains all of your work created in iWeb, and the file that needs to be transferred to your new MacBook. There are some notes on how to do this here.
    Take the time also to make back up copies of this file, and keep them in a safe place.

  • My iWeb site can not be opened by many windows users only macs.

    My iWeb site should open for all platforms = How to do?
    I am also confused about compatability of my hard work and new iWeb sites (I love the iWeb App yet i got 4 family members all in different locations in the USA who run windows ....tell me that they could not open the web site which I announced via email.) Other Mac users did reply back saying it opened fine.
    Please send me a way to enable my work to open or if u must please tell me if the windows users need a RSS Reader and or .Mac accounts and or iTunes etc etc ...I wish to feel like the work I do on my Mac is compatable for all. As is Apple continues to isolate others and will include others only if they switch....
    Hey Macs are great so why not attract others with a platform that just includes all. Noone wants to enter a beautiful garden if the path to it is filled with thorns and at entrance others find a closed gate which reads You are not welcome.... that aint right and I'm a dumb bell old Dad who thought finally I was creating a web page that all could visit.
    Send instructions please on how all people can access my iWeb sites.
    Alex L
    My post above was replied with suggestion from Tom as seen then I followed up with thanks as seen.
    Anyone else out there have problems and answers per setting iWeb sites so all platforms can access your site???
    I really doubt there is any way for anyone to help
    you unless you provide the url which is not opening
    some some users.
    Thanks Tom for posting a reply which suggests I post my url so I have listed it below. I am just a Dad with all else so know that the guy writing this and using iWeb is a novice old man. I do like iWeb very much so if u can again reply or anyone reply how to allow all PC users to be able to visit this site than great.
    Thanks
    http://web.mac.com/alxnj/iWeb/ALsite/My_Family.html
    Anyone else have ideas and or same problem?

    Thanks Andy,
    I wish I could have told my sister about this as she could not open my homepage back before my new iWeb site. She now can open my site without the yet in case denial window does appear = I thank you.
    I think my iWeb site works as Noone has said otherwise from any platform etc...
    Alex L
    I do agree that should not have to be a consideration for any users so i agree that it would be great if Apple could allow simplicity to run seemlessly.
    I have had this problem since Homepage, and here is
    what has worked for me. I send out the link, and
    then for PC users I send the link with "<" after the address (without quotation
    marks. e.g., <http://site.com>).
    I also put a note that if that doesn't work, to just
    copy and paste the link into a browser. With that I
    have only had 1 person say they still can't open.
    Everyone else gets it to work.
    It's a lot to do and seems like a hassle, but you get
    used to it.
    Hope this helps!
    Andy Martini
    PS - APPLE! When are you going to fix this??! It
    seems like such a small thing yet you guys have been
    stumped for YEARS on this!

  • IWeb site remade in Dreamweaver - cleaner code, faster loading?

    I love iWeb. But iWeb sites load slow ... and there is a LOT of messy code in there (my web experts and html whiz friends tell me this). I've tried optimizers, but found they often create odd and unpredictable glitches on individual pages. And only speed up the load process by 10%.
    I'm experimenting with designing the site in iWeb, then transferring all the materials\text\graphics into Dreamweaver ... to see if this gives me a faster loading site. I wonder if I'm wasting my time?
    And I'd love to know a way to have the iWeb sites load faster ...
    Ben

    I don't think you can pin it down to a percentage for each page. If you watch WSM as it optimizes your files you will see the saving for each file in the window - if you are quick!
    I publish my websites to Mobile Me to test them and then optimize and upload them to a commercial server. The difference in download time is noticeable.
    Where WSM really scores is when trying to get your website to load in IE - the World's Worst Browser.
    Pages that hang and lock up IE will usually load after optimizing.
    I have had the band of missing background occasionally. Usually I would just run the files again and mistakes are corrected - sometimes it takes two or three passes.
    After running the files again I launch the offending page in my browser directly from the WSM output folder (by double clicking the .html file) so that I can check it before uploading again.
