Making a subscribe button?

Hi!
Very pleased with my efforts today!
Managed to publish my first podcast and itunes picks it up if you type the feed into the box.
Next question....is there any way to create a subscribe button to add to a web page so that people can just click it and itunes finds it itself?
Many thanks in advance!
Chris
I'm using windows xp and have no ilife or iweb. (incase that affects answers!)

Here is another option that doesn't require you to have an iTunes Store Account:
Make subscriptions one-click simple
The simplest possible link you can send or post to your site is the podcast feed URL. It usually looks something like: http://www.example.com/feed.xml
Many bloggers and site owners post the link as-is. To make a one-click subscription link, instead of “http”, add "itpc" in front of your podcast’s url to make subscription one-click simple. For example:
itpc://www.example.com/podcast.xml
iTunes immediately takes over and begins downloading the first episode.
Of course you can make it a button by using HTML code and supplying itpc://www.example.com/podcast.xml as the link.

  • New site created in iWeb, Podcast works, but the Subscribe button doesn't!

    Hi All,
    I created a new site in iWeb at http://www.adamonearth.com be great if you could help out a little! I am very happy with the site turned out!
    But I have been trying to get the Video Podcast subscription link to work for a while now, but the Podcast Subscribe button on my Video Podcast page does not work. For some reason iWeb adds in /adamonearth.com after the website domain, like this... itpc://www.adamonearth.com/adamonearth.com/Video%20Podcast/rss.xml
    So if you go to my site at http://www.adamonearth.com and click onto Video Podcast the Subscribe button is on there.
    iWeb won't allow me to edit it either. Be great if you know of any ideas to amend it!
    Also be great if you let me know what you think of the site overall.
    Cheers.

    Hi Tom,
    Thanks so much for all your help, I really appreciate it.
    I fixed the name of the site and called it 'Holly' I now have the Video Podcast link working but one problem, when you enter the website address:
    http://www.adamonearth.com
    It goes to the Index Of/ page then you need to select 'Holly' which is the folder name for it to divert to the Welcome.html page.
    I have put up a directory listing for you http://www.adamonearth.com/54512.tiff
    I have tried moving the Welcome.html page above the Holly folder but that then does not link to the other pages correctly.
    From what I can see I have done everything right this time, as the Podcast link works in iTunes now.
    Any help would be great.
    Thanks again,
    Adam.

  • RSS subscribe button not working in my blog

    Hi there
    I created a site for a game I am playing but the RSS subscribe button isn't working it just goes back to the home page.
    The site is hosted on MobileMe and the url to the blog page is http://www.tttblog.co.uk/, and click on the blog link ( this isn't a shameless plug ) I just need get the RSS feed working
    not sure what other information you require, I have set this to be my personal domain in the MobileMe console
    cheers
    JP

    The URL to the blog page is :
         http://web.mac.com/johnpaul.temple/WFRP/Blog/Blog.html
    And no, you haven't set you personal domain with http://www.tttblog.co.uk.
    You're hiding the pages with it.
    The MMe Help explains how to do it properly:

  • How do you get the Photos 'subscribe' button to work.

    So i've been trying to figure out how to use the 'subscribe' button in iphoto. I'm guessing this means someone will get an email everytime I post a new photo, if they click subscribe? When i click it on my site it goes to a 'page not found' page. Here's my website: www.southbaycruisers.com
    Any suggestions on how o fix this would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

  • Subscribe button on published gallery on personal domain

    Hello!
    Wondering if anyone knows how to disengage the "Subscribe" button on the galleries I publish to my perosnal domain... I need to make this button go away or unclickable!
    Thanks for any input!
    Emily

    Hello. On the gallery, click to select the gallery. Then on the inspector, I believe on the RSS tab, there is a checkbox to allow someone to subscribe.. You can uncheck it. If I'm wrong about the RSS tab, then it's one of the tabs right next to it.. Sorry, i'm away from my mac right now, but I know it's in the inspector..

  • Downloading iWeb podcasts without "Subscribe" button?

    My "enhanced" podcast (photos & audio) in an iWeb podcast page runs fine in a QT window. But what if I don't want a "Subscribe" button on my page or my podcast published on the iTunes Store?
    ...How can a visitor simply download the podcast (right now) to put in iTunes on their computer and perhaps then onto an iPod?
    Control-clicking on the QT window gives the option of "Save as QuickTime Movie" only if the visitor has QT Pro. But is there a way for a visitor to download/save the m4a/m4b file as a podcast from my iWeb Podcast page?
    (Perhaps I'm missing something really simple here.)
    Thanks.

    A workaround for non QuickTime Pro owners.
    Archive the file (Finder will add .zip to its name) and then use the "Link to File" option of iWeb.
    A .zip file will always download and open (expand) with a double click.
    Drawback is that now two files must upload which wastes bandwidth and server space.

  • Subscribe button doesn't work

    I have my iWeb site forwarded to a personal domain site, but published through .Mac. Whenever I click on my RSS Subscribe button I am taken to a page that says "Object not found" Anybody know what I should do?

    It would be easier to help if you would provide the url so someone can see what is happening. But it sounds like you might be using forwarding plus masking/cloaking, which sometimes makes RSS not work right. If so, you can try using the CNAME method instead.

  • RSS & Subscribe Button Problems

    Having major problems with subscribe button for Podcast on website created with iWeb... (www.jumpstartguidestv.com)
    We publish everything to a folder and then drag the contents of exported folder onto the web server. The problem is the RSS refers to the exported folder itself.. is there a way to control/reprogram the RSS link in iWeb? I'm not sure if this makes any sense.
    Any help would be appreciated!

    We publish everything to a folder and then drag the
    contents of exported folder onto the web server.
    You need to upload the folder which has the same name as your site does inside iWeb, plus the index.html file which is published alongside it. That is how iWeb is designed to work. By just putting the contents of that folder on the server you are breaking the site structure and the RSS links.
    Since it is ugly to have your domain name repeated twice in your urls, best to rename your site inside iWeb to something short, like "jstv" instead of "jumpstartguidestv.com" and republish before reuploading correctly.

  • RSS Subscribe Button doesnt work

    When I save my site to a folder and try to upload the folder to my host provider, the RSS subscribe button shows the following:
    http://www.cwa3407.org/LU3407/Blog/rss.xml
    The problem seems to be that LU3407 needs to be taken out for this button to work. What is the best way to edit the html code for iWeb or the easiest way to fix this problem?
    The line should look like:
    http://www.cwa3407.org/Blog/rss.xml
    I can not figure out a way to save my file, without this problem. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Rick

    the RSS subscribe button
    shows the following:
    http://www.cwa3407.org/LU3407/Blog/rss.xml
    The problem seems to be that LU3407 needs to be taken
    out for this button to work.
    The RSS doesn't work because you broke the site structure created by iWeb by not uploading a key part of it. You need to upload the folder LU3407 and the index.html file published alongside it. If you just upload the contents of that folder, the links aren't right.

  • Adding a "subscribe button" with using .mac

    Is this possible, I am currently using iWeb enhancer for comments and such, but I would really like to include a subscribe button for my friends and family

    explain the URL, what would I be entering?
    Whatever your personal url is, like http://www.myname.com
    This goes in the box that comes up if you publish to a folder. The only purpose of that box is to make your RSS feed work.
    Do I need
    to set-up a RSS feed with someone else?
    No.

  • Subscribe button and personal domain name

    Hi,
    Is the subscribe button on my podcast page still supposed to work if I publish to .mac using my personal domain name? It doesn't seem to work for my pages. Here are two pages where the subscribe button is invalid:
    http://web.mac.com/SHIRTLESS/POETRY/POETRY_PODCASTS/Archive.html
    http://web.mac.com/SHIRTLESS/POETRY/POETRYPODCASTS/POETRYPODCASTS.html
    If anyone can solve this problem, many thanks.
    regards,
    shirtless

    Yes, because you are publishing to .Mac and just forwarding to a personal domain. Some things don't work when you use ftp to publish directly.
    Have you made sure that all the correct boxes are checked inside the Inspector in iWeb that are relevant to the podcast page?
