Moving site to new url

hello all.
in dw6 what is the easiest way to move a site from one url to another, what is the easiest ways to copy the files over and should all my links connect ok with the new url?

"css/style.css"
This is a relative link.
"http://www.yourwebsite.com/css/style.css"
This is an absolute link.
If you've used relative links, regardless of which URL you're moving your website into, you need not make a code change as all links will be relative to your webpage/ webpages. If its an absolute link, you're in trouble. you need to check and change links sitewide.
Please avoid appending 'promotional' links to your post. It's against the forum guidelines.

How do I remove old web site when publishing new site with same URL in iweb? Hit replace when publishing new iweb site (so we could have control over changes) but new site name is attached to old via a / after our www address we want to keep.

I hit the replace when publishing the new iweb site (so we could have control over changes - last one was not an apple based site) but new site name is attached to old via a forward slash and underscore after our www address. Makes it very messy with a very long web address. Original address now followed by iweb site name followed by name of first page? Went for iweb as not that computer literate - all going so well?! Cheers for help in anticipation. Have to get off to work now but be great end to week if we could be sorted tonight. Rupes

Well yes of course, if you try and publish through iWeb there won't be an option to publish without your site folder which is exactly why I told you to download Cyberduck and use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server having published your site from iWeb to a local folder. That is what you need to do if you don't want your site name to be included in yoru url.
It would have been easier also if you had used Cyberduck initially to connect to your server and delete your old site yourself - at least that way you would have deleted the correct files rather than relying on your hosting service to do it and doing it incorrectly.
Download Cyberduck and then select the publish to a local folder option from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to your server, but rather than uploading the whole site folder and separate index file, upload ONLY the contents of your site folder and then your url will be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.
It really isn't rocket science!

Hi, problem occurs when I'm clicking a button or a new url on the current site. For instance, when i clicked that "Ask This" button on this web site, It redirects me to the default homepage. I cant go back and I'm losing the previous web site HELP PLEASE!

Try the Firefox SafeMode. 
''A troubleshooting mode, which disables most Add-ons.'' 
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default Theme.)''
# You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the '''Shft''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
# Or use the Help menu item, click on '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' while Firefox is running. 
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shft key) to open it again.''
If it is good in the Firefox SafeMode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.

Minefield just would not open pages, whatever I tries to type in the addressbar the URL just stayed there and nothing happened. Even if I opened a new tab and put a new url again it did not even start loading the page. This is happening since the last updates from today or yesterday.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems
See [[Basic Troubleshooting|#Make_a_new_profile|Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile]]
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins"
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile (be careful not to copy corrupted files)

Cant generate new URL() Object in Dashcode

As the topic says i im not able to generate a new URL() Object.
like:
var url = new URL();
in Dashcode it says that url is not declared why?

Hello,
Thx for the answer but I think I didnt told you why i need the fetch() method.
The fetch method takes the data(e.g. html) and puts it in a string variable or into a file.
I need this because I want to make a widget(I finished but one feature is missing) which opens a site and tells you how which trains or busses you need.
My Problem is that this site needs detailed information and so you have to choose on the site.
I want to put this choosing into my widget.
As you recognized the idea is like Ajax.
But i dont think that xmlhttprequest will work for my problem.
Is there any other solutions?

A basic question about upgrading iPhoto before moving to a new iMac

I just ordered a new 27" iMac for my wife who uses several iLife programs and is a big user of iPhoto. Her present iMac still uses Tiger and iLife '08. Don't ask why Tiger! I'm wondering if there is any advantage/disadvantage to upgrading iLife to '09 before we move everything to the new iMac which will come with iLife '09? I'm not sure if the iPhoto library being upgraded on the current iMac would be moved to the new iMac "easier/cleaner" than copying the "old" library then placing it into "Pictures" (and opening it with '09 in the new iMac). For some reason it sounds "easier" to upgrade Before moving the library to the new iMac. Obviously this same "theory" applies to the other iLife applications. I'd rather ask this question today than to have to ask it when there's a great big problem!
Many thanks for the suggestions.

TD certainly you're right and I sit here laughing at the fact she has iPhoto '09 on her macbook Pro and '08 on her desktop. It wasn't until Saturday night that she let me put Snow Leopard on her MBP and I've been running it on my MBP and MP since it came out. Oh well. But at this point we'll upgrade the desktop (a PPC iMac) then can copy and move the library to the new iMac without some potential for problem.

New URL for PieroF FCE Effects

Since a few days ago, the site where I make some FCE and FCP plugins available for free, has changed its URL. The new URL is:
http://web.mac.com/piero.fiorani/PieroFFCEEffect/Welcome.html
You can still access all my plugins, either from the Welcome page or after you change each "%20" char into "_" in their URL, AND remove "iWeb/" from the URL.
Note. That's correct: the site has changed its URL... I did not change its URL ! This seems a new feature for iWeb (in iLife 08) which maps "blank" characters in the web page names into "_" and not "%20". While I personally like this solution, I didn't like the automatic renaming of all my pages (without warning or request for confirmation) since this made them immediately unavailable to whoever knew the old name...
In any case let me know if you still have problems accessing those plugins.
Sorry...
Piero
Thanks Tom: in fact redirection works, but to the Welcome page only.
Message was edited by: PieroF

Thanks for letting us Piero. The old link still works though. You just get redirected to the new URL name.

Help moving to a new pc

Hi everybody:
I'm moving to a new pc and need to know how to do it...I
moved my project's folders to my new pc and I define the sites but
i can't see the templates...
how I move my templates?
If you have a tutorial please redirect me....or if you can
bring me some tips...

Has this happened in all the sites or only one? And you have
the Templates
folder at the root level of the site, and it contains your
*.dwt files? If
that's the case, try this -
1. In Site Manager, select this site and click on the EXPORT
button to
export the site's definition (use the first radio button -
the full site
definition) to some locatable folder on your drive.
2. In Site Manager, select this site, and click on the REMOVE
button to
remove the site's definition from Site Manager.
3. In Site Manager, click on the IMPORT button, and IMPORT
the site
definition you just exported.
Do you see the templates now?

Deafult search engine on a new tab-this thread was closed but I have a related question. Once you put the new url in, what then? Close? When tried, did not work

"deafult search engine on a new tab" - this thread was closed but I have a related question. [the word “default” is spelled as it on the thread] Once you put the new url in, what then? Close it? When tried, it did not work. The closest answer is noted here. Instructing to go to about:fig. Specifically, I installed the accuweather add=on and it took over my tab home page - the one that comes up when you click for a new tab. I didn't like it so I clicked the button to remove it and the page went blank. I searched to see out to restore the tab page, tired the reply at this page :
http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/753256?s=install+search+box+on+new+tabs&r=3&as=s
But it did not work. Can some on help me? Just want to know how to make google or some page open on a new tab.
Many thanks

Thanks so much for your support. As I said I am not a professional, so I by chance saw a friend who is and this is what he suggested and it worked.
We googled for an answer and found this site: http://www.guidingtech.com/8004/have-new-tab-page-open-specific-website-firefox-chrome/
It says to Download and install Download and install''' NewTabURL''' and gives instructions on how to. Now when I open the tab it goes to my preferred search page!

Moving to the new BT Mail system

Hi,
I have just received an email today and it looks like I will be moving to the new BT Mail system shortly. So I am trying to ensure that I am all set up for it, but have two related questions I have not been able to find answers to ...
1. I do not currently use the Yahoo web-pages, but my e-mail is instead forwarded to another account where it is merged with all my other e-mail from various accounts. Will this forwarding be carried over to the new system, or must I set it up again?
2. The T&Cs worringly says that I must look at the BT Email webpage, otherwise my account will be suspended. What is actually meant by this as there are also instructions for collecting the email via IMAP and POP for PC programs or on a mobile device. How will people using email forwarding or a separate program/mobile be affected?
With thanks
Andrew

I do believe that BT Retail are starting to move existing customer's who email accounts are on the BTYahoo email system to the new BT Mail system provided by Critical Path from this month onwards (ie from March 2014 onwards)
Though always be wary if you do recieve an email claiming to be from BT Retail or BTplc asking for your details or to verify your account.
Link on how to check if the email you recieved is actually from BT Retail: http://bt.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/9191/c/346,6588,6595
Anyway these links below should help you how to get ready for the move to the new BT Mail system and platform:

Muse site on BC - URL Redirects list not working

Hello. A Muse site has just gone live on BC host.
The URL redirects don't appear to be working.
Doing a Google search on 'parkerandassociates.co.nz Amy Williamson' gives a result leading to http://www.parkerandassociates.co.nz/people/amy-williamson/ From the screen grab below the Redirect is showing that this should be working, but in reality the page is not being found. I tried several times to edit the Action and also imported the Import Redirect Urls method and it imported successfully.
My import file was CSV and had one row for consisting of the following columns Old Url (= /people/amy-williamson/) New URL (/amy-williamson.html) Enabled (True). I wasn't quite sure what to put in the columns for Enabled, so I put 'True' as shown below. But still the redirection is not working.
Can anybody tell me where I could be going wrong?
Cheers
Grant

Hi Grant Senior,
Update the source of the redirect from /people/amy-williamson/ to /people/amy-williamson/index.html and the URL http://www.parkerandassociates.co.nz/people/amy-williamson/ should then redirect successfully. This is because BC sees the source as a directory and not an actual page.
I have done this for http://www.parkerandassociates.co.nz/people/amy-williamson/ on your behalf, and can confirm that it is now working.
Cheers.

4.0 flashes or sustains a glaring white screen when opening a new tab 0r a new url-can this be corrected to show a dark transition screen instead?

We have a special color theme which we use for all your previous versions of Firefox so as to eliminate all white screen glare which has been successful until we installed 4.0. When opening a new tab the screen now flashes a stark white eye-strain glaring white light, and much worse when opening a url site this condition does not flash but lingers as long as it takes (sometimes very long) to load a new url. Since this never happened with previous versions, how can this be corrected without having to return to Firefox 3.6?

You can cause a new tab to display the site of your choice by installing the following Add-on:
*https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/newtaburl/
*after installing, set the options by going to Add-ons > Extensions >New TabURL > Options
Also see --> https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/new-tab-homepage/
*If you have multiple home pages, the first one is automatically chosen by this Add-on
Future versions of Firefox will/may have this option without an Add-on.

First of all how is anyone supposed to help you correct your coding when you have posted any. We can't possibly know what is going on inside the event handler for your button. I suggest that post some of your coding here. In general if you want to open another URL in the same page without using the linkToURL UI element, you should consider the usage of Exit Plugs:
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/45/1bc575ba064574e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/45/1bc575ba064574e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm]
Second, please don't ask people to do something "immediately". Everything done in the forum is on a volunteer basis and people help out as fast as possible. Your prompting for immediate action is quite unnecessary and could be considered somewhat rude.

Open new URL page in same window

Hi all,
I am using LinkToUrl UI element for opening a new URL
page.
I did it successfully by giving the URL in reference property.
But the link is opening in new window.It should be opened
in same window instead of new window.
Any one can help me........

Hi
Use the target property of LinktoURL .
You can specify the window name where you want to load new URL.
Check the following Link.

How do I move from one website to another using Safari, while still allowing Pandora to provide music in the background? It seems that when ever I open a new URL, I lose Pandora.

How do I move from one website to another using Safari, while still allowing Pandora to provide music in the background? It seems that when ever I open a new URL, I lose Pandora.

Try running Pandora in its own tab and leaving that tab open (Safari 7.1.5, OS 10.9.5). I don't have Pandora to try this, but it works for me otherwise.
Good luck
