Leaving Comments on your iWeb Pages

What kind of service can I use to enable users to leave comments on my blog posts or on my pages? One that's noninvasive and super easy-to-use and most important of all, free, would be ideal. Please let me know what you use and/or how to use it.

Are you publishing to MobileMe or a 3rd party server? For regular pages you might use a guestbook like in this demo page: Guestbook.
I'll guess that you're using a 3rd party server since with MMe blogs can have comments added.

For 3rd party servers one of these might work:

Allow comments on imovie.iweb page

i need to understand how to add user comments to a iweb/movie rather than the blog page - so that the movie page allows comments?

This is just a comment on the side; it does not pretend to be an answer to you question. However, there is a dotmac.info site which does indeed allow for comments of your imovie.

MP3 "jukebox" with playlist on iWeb page?

Well, i know you can drag and drop one track to play in the background on your iWeb pages, but i have a "Lounge" section with widget games and want to create a nice atmosphere with a nice jukebox MP3 player on the page where visitors can scroll through 4-7 tracks perhaps.
Is this possible somehow? Can't find any good widgets that do that. Appreciate any help, thanks
Also, on a sidenote, am i the only one having trouble with getting errors when i try to leave those "helpful" and "solved" awards?
I get this error message:
"Error
An error in the system has occurred. Please contact the system administrator if the problem persists."

Is it possible to widen the page view when drafting iWeb pages?

I'm drafting web pages via iWeb and figured out how to make the page content wider (in page layout/content width), but would like to be able to have a view of the entire page while I'm rearranging the text and images on the webpage. I cannot figure out how to be able to view the page without having to scroll left and right. Is it possible to see what the finished product looks like in its entirety before and/or after publishing to iWeb???

I'm not really understanding your question since the way things look in iWeb is pretty much the way they look online.
In what way do your iWeb pages not look like what you see online?
This is really a feature in iWeb (and one which costs iWeb excessive code if anything): to be able to provide a WYSIWYG canvas on which to build.

How do I add Bloglines graphic to my iWeb page

I have created a knitting blog using iWeb and .mac. Most knitters use Bloglines to follow their favorite sites. I have added RSS to the top of my blog but would also like to add Bloglines and its subscribe button.
I went to Bloglines, created an account, and went through the steps to pick an icon and generate the HTML to add to my web page. I have no clue how I'm suppose to add this code in iWeb.
I did a search of iWeb's help and it seems there are only 3 choices for adding feeds, RSS, podcast, and photocast. I just want to add Bloglines to this list.
Am I not understanding what RSS is? I thought it was different than the more specific Bloglines. Traffic to my site will be limited if I can't figure out how to hook into the knitting blogline community.
Thanks in advance,

Instead of putting the HTML code that you get from Bloglines into your iWeb HTML files, it will be easier just to import the button graphics into iWeb and then attach the appropriate hyperlinks to the buttons using the iWeb Inspector Hyperlink tab... Here are some general steps...
1. Go to http://www.bloglines.com and log into your account.
2. Click on the Feeds tab.
3. Click on the "Get a Subscribe To Bloglines Button" link
4. Decide which button you want to use and the Control-click on the button image.
5. Select "Save Image to Desktop" from the menu that pops up.
6. Go ahead and enter your iWeb RSS feed URL and then click "Generate HTML"
7. On the next screen, you'll see some code that looks like this:
8. Copy the underlined URL from your generated HTML code. This is all you will need.
9. Now launch iWeb
10. Drag the button graphic that you saved into your page
11. Select the button and the open the Inspector Hyperlink tab.
12. Check the box "Enable as hyperlink"
13. Next to Link To:, choose "External URL"
14. In the URL field, enter/paste in the URL from Step 8
That should be it! You can select the button graphic on the page and copy and paste it to any number of locations on your iWeb pages now. The link and everything should stay intact.
Let me know if this works out for you. Good luck!

Copy iweb page into google apps

Hi,
Is it possible to publish a web page created in iweb into my website which is within google apps.
thanks

Determine the width and height in pixels of your iWeb page.
Divide by 72 to get the width and height in inches,
To get centimeters, multiply the number in inches by 2,54.
Create a custom page size in Page setup in Pages (Or any application).
Use the numbers in inches or in centimeters.
Add a blank page in Pages.
Choose the newly created pagesize.
Set the zooming of Pages to 100%.
You now have a identical page size.
Then copy paste all objects from iWeb to Pages.
I do the reverse. I create a webpage in Pages and then copy/paste everything to iWeb.

Can i publish HTML or JavaScript on my iWeb pages?

I don't know how to embed html or javascript - i'm adding advertising affiliates (amazon, etc.) but i cannot post their code. i've had to past the gif logo and then create a link.

Connecting iweb page to domain using transmit

Ok, can someone explain this to me step by step. I just just don't get it.
I created a page on iweb, and then "published to folder"
I bought a domain and hosting with "godaddy", and the I just bought transmit.
How do I connect the page I created (using iweb) to my domain name (using transmit)? by the way, I also have .mac.
Any help would be strongly appreciated.
Cheers
Gerry

In case you have tried "Publish to .Mac" already and want to know how to forward from Godaddy, here are the step by step directions...
1. Go to GoDaddy.com and login to your account.
2. Click under "Domains" and select "My Domain Names"
3. On the next page check the box next to your domain
name and then click on "Forward Domains"
4. On the right hand window, type in your iWeb
address, like http://web.mac.com/yourname
5. Don't worry about the other options for now.
6. Scroll to the bottom and click on "Save changes"
That's it! It might take a little while for GoDaddy
to update everything, but from then on anyone who
types your www.domain.com will be forwarded to your
iWeb pages.
Please provide feedback by clicking on the "solved" and "helpful" buttons in the title bars of my replies. Thanks.

IWeb pages export to Dreamweaver 8

so id like to know if i export my webpages to a folder, that i could import it to dreamweaver 8,,,,,, with all the links, photo album functions, blog and podcast
and then add google adsense and more through HTML,,,,, and how do i add the google stuff into dreamweaver 8,,,,,,,,,,,,,, can i just draw boxes and put the HTML into it or does it all have to be done with script because i hav no clue how to do that.... thnx ver much

If all you want to do is add simple HTML snippets into the code, like Adsense code or other javascript snippets.... you probably don't really to use Dreamweaver.... although Dreamweaver can open the page.html files just perfectly.
As far as getting your iWeb pages ready to be edited, you must first "reserve" the space on a page for your HTML element with a text box and then you will want to make it easy to find your textbox in the code by putting some easily recognizable placeholder text into the textbox. Here are the step-by-step directions...

Adding Flickr to iWeb page

Hi. I'm trying to add a link to my iWeb pages which has my Flickr photos on. How do I do it? I know how to just add an ordinary link, but I want to to add one of those links that I see on other blogs that show little thumbnails of the photos.
Hope it makes sense!

If you can get the code from Flickr, you can add it to your iWeb page after publishing.
Here are some basic instructions for making html changes after publishing in iWeb:
1. Type a placeholder in place of where you want the item to go. i.e. CODEGOESHERE or something like that. Publish your site via iWeb
2. Find your html files.
Go to iDisk/Web/Sites/iWeb/Sitename/Pagename.html
(If you publish to a folder, look in the folder you selected or try looking in your Sites folder of your home folder. )
There are two ways to handle accessing your iDisk.
Method 1:
Turn on local copy of your iDisk in System Prefs, with or without automatic syncing.
If you publish your site via iWeb, now the updated pages exist online but the old pages are on your local iDisk. You need to sync (automatically or manually) to get the new pages on your local iDisk (on your computer).
Then you can open the updated files, make your html changes in Text Edit or whatever program, and SYNC AGAIN (automatically or manually) to update the online version of the site to match what you have just changed on your local iDisk
Method 2:
Mount the iDisk when needed via the "Go" menu in Finder. This is the ONLINE VERSION of your iDisk, not a local copy. When you publish your site via iWeb, the changes INSTANTLY appear on the iDisk on your desktop. If you make html edits or other changes, they appear INSTANTLY online.
I recommend Method 2 - much easier!!!
3. Make the html changes.
You can open the html files generated by iWeb in any text or html editor. In TextEdit, to view the code in an HTML file, choose File > Open and select "Ignore rich text commands." Then locate the .html file (as described in step 2) and click Open.
Make your changes (i.e. replace CODEGOESGERE with your code!) and don't forget to save your changes (not Save As, just Save)!!!
4. Remember, if you make a change to a page like this post-publishing, and later re-publish, you have to make the html changes again! Set up a Find/Replace command in MassReplaceIt and you can do this very quickly. You can save your queries so you can make all of your changes with one click the next time you save.

Any way to turn an iWeb page into a Pages page?

I'm just finishing up an iWeb site and want to send the basic layout and images to a friend via a Pages project file. He doesn't know iWeb (and doesn't want to), but he is familiar with Pages.
Is there any way to convert an iWeb document to a Pages document, or even just one page? Everything is in 'pixels' in iWeb, and Pages doesn't seem to have a 'pixels' function. Otherwise I'd just create a similar background in Pages and copy everything over. Don't want to have to figure out conversions of pixels to inches, points, or picas.

Determine the width and height in pixels of your iWeb page.
Divide by 72 to get the width and height in inches,
To get centimeters, multiply the number in inches by 2,54.
Create a custom page size in Page setup in Pages (Or any application).
Use the numbers in inches or in centimeters.
Add a blank page in Pages.
Choose the newly created pagesize.
Set the zooming of Pages to 100%.
You now have a identical page size.
Then copy paste all objects from iWeb to Pages.
I do the reverse. I create a webpage in Pages and then copy/paste everything to iWeb.

IWeb Blog - How do people leave comments?

Hi - I have made a site with iWeb and added a blog. Even though I have 'ticked' the box to allow comments I can't see where or how anyone can leave any?
Can anyone help me with what I am doing or not doing?

You can use a 3rd party comments site to add to your blog page without having to change servers. This one has been recommended by several users: http://www.intensedebate.com/
Another one is http://aboutecho.com/products-overview.html but I think that's not free if there's over so many comments. I've not used either so can't comment on their effectiveness first hand.

Thanks

As Roddy says, you could look at Disqus or another alternative is http://www.intensedebate.com. Try these 2 if you want the comments to be visible to you and others on your website.
If it does not matter to you whether the comments on your site are visible to others and you want the comments coming directly to you, then try having a look at http://www.jotform.com where you can create any type of form that you want, so a contact and feedback form would work - the comments would come directly to you, but not be visible on your website. You could also try Google docs for this or http://www.wufoo.com.
Another method that Old Toad recommends is a guest book option - the results will be visible on your website, but I have never used this option. Just do a Google search for Guest Book options.
I have used Intense Debate in the past and it worked very well on my site. No longer use it as I don't really need comments and for that, I just use a JotForm contact and feedback form instead. You could write your own code for your form to and use your servers Form Mail option so results get mailed to you and are then stored on the server instead of third party servers as is the case with Wufoo and Jotform - if the servers go down, then you have lost your form. You are a little more protected if the form is on your own server.
