Missing text in posts in Archive on Blog page

I need help! When I go back through my archive on my blog page for the previous 10 months through iWeb, my entries start to appear as first, missing the text, and further back, missing text and pics! I am using it as a digital diary of my baby's development so am freaking out a bit. Any idea's on what is going wrong?? Thank you!

Welcome to the discussions. It's a common problem:
_blog archives missing text but photos still show_
_Blank Blog Archive Page?_
...and you may find more threads by searching for "archive" in the +Search Forum+ bar on this forum's main page.

Basically iWeb's blog is buggy and, in the end, it comes down to this:

PDF missing text when browsing or linking to a page

Hello,
I have an issue with missing text in a PDF file when I try and browse directly to a page in a PDF. Interestingly, the text is not missing when you open the PDF and navigate to the same page from within the PDF. The first Character(s) of the title are missing.
The title of this page should say Criminal Justice, but the "C" is missing when you visit this link--
http://www.northeast.edu/Degrees-and-Programs/pdfs/2010-Catalog.pdf#page=103
This only happens if you try to navigate directly to a page. If you use the pagers within the PDF then the text is fine. If you change the link in the url to represent the page you are trying to visit, the characters disappear again.
Any thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Posting mp3 file on blog page (iweb)

Hello,
Hopefully, someone can help me. I have posted a mp3 file on my blog. It plays fine on iweb, but once published, does not play if viewed from the Internet. Can someone help? Thanks!

I appreciate the input, but I'm not sure it explains why that one link does not work. When I do finally publish the site (for real) on the internet, the tunes will be reduced to smaller sound clips, and not the whole song. The full-song version will be burned to disc, and handed out to industry folks at a trade show. It will take the place of a standard press kit. Right now, I'm just using this to show my clients, and get the thing working right. None of us can figure out why that one song won't play. But thanks so much for taking the time to look at it.

Suddenly unable to post comments on iWeb blog - image verification error

People suddenly can't post comments to my blog page (web.me.com/stannerory). I've tried this myself, and posting continuously fails at the image verification process, one receives an error message that says the letters entered don't match the image, yet they do. Someone suggested that cutting the comment, closing, reopening, and pasting, and doing the process a second time would work, but I haven't found this to be successful either. Is there some kind of a workaround? Anyone else having this issue?

OT -
Thanks for your efforts.
It seems to be intermittent now, which is an improvement. I still can't add or remove a comment without fail. It's some consolation that it might be a server issue, but if it were, wouldn't there be all kinds of unhappy Apple users complaining about the issue, AND wouldn't the mobileMe website have some kind of problem indicator light flashing? Of course it would.

Blog Page Add a Comment

Just lost all posted comments on the blog page. In the Archive section, I can see 15 comments for my last entry, but they do not show when I access my site. All the other enties read "NO COMMENTS". Is there any way to restore the comments? Help!!

Why won't video show on blog page?

I have created a web site that is just a blog. When I just have a picture on an entry page, it shows up on the main blog page too. When I have a video on an entry page, only text shows up on the main blog page, no video. How do I get the video on a blog entry page to also show up on the main blog page?

The Blog main page has a section with the Blog Summary.
iWeb will generated the content of this Blog Summary based on your content in the entries.
The picture placeholder in a blog entry is for pictures, not for movies.
Here's what I do :
Start playing the movie until you see a frame that is good for representing the movie. If it's a QT movie : save the frame as picture with QT Pro, if it's a YouTube movie, use Grab (press simultaneously Apple, Shift, 4 and select the frame) or use an other app to make a picture from a selection on the screen.
Drag the picture in the placeholder.
Position the movie on the blog entry where you want it.
Now you have a picture of the movie in the Blog Summary.
If you do not want the picture to show in the blog entry, cover it with a rectangle that has the same filling as the page background or hide it under the movie.

Blog archives missing text but photos still show. Mac genius's stumped...

Why would my text disappear from my older blog archives while my photos still show up?
The text is still there, because if you bring up the html and view it in source mode you can see it...
but just not on the blog page... like if you used white font on a white background. Any ideas?
Even the genius's at the apple store couldn't figure this one out.
thanks, mark.
http://www.artfulrvadventures.com go to archives before may of this year...

thank you cyclosaurs... I've been AWOL lately and am tardy with this response. *I should be able to just republish from my backup files, right?*
Mark,
Not just yet.
What you should do is to publish your site to a folder in your local machine, then look for these xml files.
If these xml files are published and exist in you local machine then you can force apple to correct the problem - otherwise, you may/will face the same problem in the future, when they screw up again.
I will try to repost if I learn anything from the MME techs
Jessica,
I'm sorry to hear about your situation, but I would leave your blog as it is for now... *it's a long shot, perhaps* apple can recover those xml files.

How to have more months and years appear for selection in the archives for blog posts?

Hello,
How to have more months and years appear for selection in the archives for blog posts? It just shows past 3 months in the year 2014, but we have many blog posts in years 2013, 2012 and 2011 and further back. I am using the OOB SharePoint blog
feature.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply; it doesn't add anything as RSA6 was one of the options I listed and this was my fall back option if there was no other special treatment for the COPA datasources.
I have found out why this, and other fields, are not available in KEB0. The program uses a Function called KERA_COPA_METADATA_INTERFACE within which there is a section that selects the COPA fields:
***** 1. RULES (choice/class)
* set rules for fixed fields
PERFORM COPA_SET_RULES_FIXED_FIELDS USING I_ACCTCOST
                                      CHANGING E_T_RULES[].
When you look at this code section there is a hard coded list of fields to exclude:
MRULE 'MANDT     ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PAOBJNR   ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PASUBNR   ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PAPAOBJNR ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PAPASUBNR ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'HRKFT     ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'HZDAT     ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'USNAM     ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'RKESTATU ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'TIMESTMP ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PERDE     ' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'PERIO     ' OBLIGATORY CHAR_CE3 OBLIGATORY CHAR_CE3.
MRULE 'COPA_AWTYP' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
MRULE 'COPA_AWORG' NEVER FORGET_IT NEVER FORGET_IT.
As this is a standard delivered SAP function I do not recommend that you change this code as you will invalid your SAP support and upgrade paths.
Thanks
Neil

Photos in text of blog entry do not port to main blog page

I have posted before about the photos from my entry page disappearing when ported to my main blog page. I have yet to find a solution so I'm asking for help again.
I'm am trapped using iWeb 1.1 until I find a solution. I use the Modern Template with modifications. Usually I delete the snowboarding surfer placeholder. Please note I'm not concerned that this photo doesn't port. I don't want it to. I do however need the photos that I have embedded via text wrap within my blog entry to port to the main blog page. They do not.
I have tried keeping the snowboarder place holder and redoing entries with wrapped text, but my additional photos are still missing. I have checked the box in iWeb 2 that says show photos. My layouts conveted to iWeb 2 look perfect on the entry's page, and horrible with missing photos on the summary page.
This problem is beyond frustrating. My blog can be seen here, however it is still the iWeb 1.1 format.
http://web.mac.com/knittsings/iWeb/knittsings/knittsings/knittsings.html
As you can see, almost all my entries have numerous photos. I want them to display on the main blog page.
Am I missing something very basic? I have seen others with this same question but no one seems to have had any luck resolving this problem.
Thanks,
Kathryn

And that's the way it should be.
If you look at this page about navigation you'll see that the main navigation uses eternal links and the sub navigation internal ones....

Randomly Missing Text in PDF Created from FrameMaker

This problem relates to a structured FM document, but I suspect it might be a general issue and have posted it here in the general forum for that reason.
I am generating PDFs that are missing text somewhat randomly throughout. I tried searching the forum for solutions, but none of the suggested fixes worked and none of the posts specifically addressed the issue I am experiencing.
I am working in structured FM. The templates we use were originally created for FM8. We use both FM8 and FM10 in our work group. We are able to duplicate the same problem in both versions and on multiple computers.
I thought I had narrowed the problem down to certain paragraph formatting, since it only ocurs in three or four paragraph formats (a bullet list, table text, etc.) Garden variety formatting. But in most places in the document, these formats appear perfectly. The strangest occurence is a single intance where the page number is missing from the footer.
I thought it might be a font issue, as I've had similar issues in the past. I had a missing font warning in the console, but I am pretty sure that this has nothing to do with it, since they are fonts we are not using and all the other text from the same formats appears.
I tried turning off "Remember Missing Font Names" in preferences. No help.
I checked that the fonts are in the local directory and appear as embedded subsets in the PDF.
I also tried checking and unchecking the "Rely on system fonts only; do not use document fonts" option in the PDF output settings. Also no help.
The randomness of the missing fonts bewilders me and I've exhausted my own troubleshooting abilities. I would be happy to share a source file if anyone thinks they could help me that way.
Thanks in advance,
Douglas

IWeb 08: Blog page and Archive

I set up a new Blog. The first COMMENT (entered on the Comment page) shows on the Blog page. (it I had set it to show 4 comments) All other comments are on Comment page, but do not show on Blog page. Also, I do not understand how to get any of the Comments (now 10 of them) onto the Archive page.
Please help..

I am not sure what you mean "use report this post & ask that it gets moved,".How do I do this?
Sure bottom right of each post, every post has that link in the bottom right corner...
there is no "New Posting" mention when I go to the iWeb page
Right, I wish Apple would make it easier, but try this...

Shockwave Player 11 - Missing text xtra

I produce e-learning products using Director MX 2004 that are
used nationally across the NHS in England. These ran perfectly in
Shockwave Player 10.x but when users 'upgrade' to Shockwave Player
11, error messages appear stating that there is a missing Text Xtra
that the application requires to run. The html file into which it
is embedded states Shockwave Player 10 as a requirement and all
Xtras are set to Auto Download in the Director movie. When the
application runs, text is replaced by red cross boxes and they are
unusable. A solution is needed desperately! Please help!

I don't have a solution, but rather this breaking of existing
content
relating to the Text Xtra has been noted on one or two of the
listserves
too. If a fix becomes apparent I'll post here.

5800 XM missed text light keeps flashing!

Hello everyone!
Right, I dont know why, ever since I updated the 5800 with the latest firmware the little white light that used to only flash when I had a missed call or a missed text now flashes constantly (at that same slow rate..but its always flashing). I went through my inbox, outbox everything. Then went though all the missed calls etc, but it still flashes.
Any ideas why or how I could stop it?
Cheers!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It's the "breather" as mentioned in the hundred or so other threads about this issue on this forum.

How to post more than one photo on blog page

Can you post more than the top placeholder photo on a blog page? I'd like to post photos as they relate to the blog I'm writing but can only use the placeholder photo at the top of the entry page--is it possible to place more photos on the page or do you have to use a web layout and not a blog layout?
Thanks.

It is possible because I Do it on my blog. All you have to do is click he media button and get the photo you want, I then drag it to the desktop, and then drag it into my blog. For some reason iweb can get a little wonkey and makes it look like it can't be done, but it can. Good luck!

Where do I change the color of this text in the blog page?

I'm trying to add a blog page to my non-template iWeb site. On the Main Page, I'm unable to change the color of the font in the hyperlinks, where the default reads "Day of Longboarding" and "Read more…". I don't know what I might be overlooking. Any pointers? Thanks…

That's not something iWeb has a menu item for. However with the proper javacode you can change a lot about the navbar. This deoo page describes how: Change Navbar Text and Background Color.
