Posting iweb to an external site--slide show

My wife is considering switching from a pc to a mac. She already has a web hosting site where she maintains a web site. We understand that we can use iweb to create and post the her html to this domain, but, without the enhanced slide show functionality. Does this mean that there is NO slideshow or that some of the functionality (the enhanced part??) is disabled?
Thanks
Steve

There is NO iWeb slideshow at all when not hosted via .Mac. There are alternative ways of doing slideshows however, as discussed in this thread...

  • Can iWeb do an auto-runing slide show embedded on home page?

    I want a slide show of photos to start running automatically when the page is loaded. I don't want visitors to have to click anything, and I don't want the slide show to take over the page.
    (Example: http://www.csl.edu/ )
    I have tried placing a MobileMe Gallery widget on the page, but when I do this, the little window comes up asking me to select the album to display. I do have a MobileMe account, and I do have albums in the gallery, but the iWeb Gallery widget is not showing any of them.
    Can anyone help?

    both albums page and photos page have slideshow that can be auto start with a few lines of code.
    see my posts in this thread for albums page slideshow:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8422394
    here is example: http://temp.cyclosaurus.com/ImageRotate2/ImageRotate/ImageRotate.html
    albums page slideshow requires some manual works for good quality images.
    do search for my posts on photos page slideshow, here is my photos page slideshow slideshow:

  • Redirect iWeb Pages To External Sites?

    I have a persona domain that I have linked to my .mac account. I have a previous blog that I am trying to substitute on my site instead of having to create a whole new one using the iWeb blog feature. How do I do this?
    Currently, I have tried to change my CNAME records at my Domain control panel. I use blogger.com so I entered in a new CNAME record that would direct to the correct destination field.
    All I want to happen is to have on my navigation bar where it says blog to redirect to myname.blogger.com. I can not figure out how to do this. Maybe I am just making it too complicated.

    I was struggling with this same problem for a few hours tonight and finally got it figured out.
    1. Create a blank page in iWeb and set it to be included in the navigation bar.
    2. After publishing your site, find the file iWeb creates called "index.html" and open it with a text editor. (I like TextWrangler, but TextEdit should work as well.)
    3. The file should be very short. Find the section that looks like this:
    meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= PageName.html" /
    4. Replace the portion after "url=" with the full external URL you want the navigation bar link to point to. For example, your final line might look like this:
    <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=http://myblog.blogspot.com" />
    5. Select "Save as...", and use this file to replace the blank iWeb page you created for the Navbar. (If you made Blog.html, this will become your new "Blog.html" file. (Don't just save the file, or you'll screw up your index file. We're just using it as a template.)
    For an example of this fix in action, here's my site where I did this exact same thing earlier this evening:
    www.timelypersuasion.com
    (click on the "blog" link in the navbar to see the external redirect)
    Hope this helps.

  • Using iWeb, links to external sites revert to the apple site.

    I have been wrestling with this for 2 weeks.  Even the apple help desk can not sort this out and I have tried all suggestions from the apple support communities so far.  When I try to link my web site to LinkedIn, it reverts to apple.live web site.  I am going out of my mind trying to fix this.  Does anyone have the solution??
    Tony

    Delete the link and try the following:
    Try the following:
    delete the iWeb preference files, com.apple.iWeb.plist and com.apple.iWeb.plist.lockfile, that resides in your Home() /Library/Preferences folder.
    go to your Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iWeb folder and delete its contents.
    Click to view full size
    launch iWeb and try again.
    NOTE: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Home()/Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

  • Missing Arrow pictures in iWeb Slide Show

    iWeb creates navigation items for slide shows created with photo pages.
    Now due to the closing down of me.com these images have disappeared.
    Here an example of one of these items:
    http://www.me.com/1/slideshow/images/arrow_right_on.png
    I use iWeb 3.0.4.
    It's an oversight that is not very Apple like, please get these images back on the server quickly, to confirm that you are a company that puts quality first. Thank you!

    @roger
    Why should this be a problem?
    it would be a problem when you design web sites for multi client:
    1) it's not fair to one client to be leeched by others.
    2) when the image host server goes down, other clients are hosed... just like with mme.
    but if you have a neater solution please publish it
    what's there for me to publish, it's an installation package and I have it.
    @roddy
    Why would you want to crticise OT's method
    not crticising, just pointing out the flaws... it's an open forum.
    It may be that the iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the "proper place" to modify the slideshow but it works.
    The "missing control background image" is easily fixed by changing the file paths in the iWPopUpSlideshow.css file in the resources folder.
    that's just to prove iWPopUpSlideshow.js is not the proper place.
    hint: slideshow.html is the file uses both iWPopUpSlideshow.js and iWPopUpSlideshow.css, start from there.
    I don't see anybody coming up with something better and this is
    yes I do have installation package for it, but with your (and other poeple's) snipy remarks at me... karma is...

  • Combining multiple slide shows

    I'm not sure this question was ever really answered. I did see it posted. I have about 5 slide shows that I would like to put on 1 DVD. I can make a menu and link to each individual slide show. But I can't figure out how to play all 5 slide shows from beginning to end. Each slide show has 99 slidees. How do I do this? I need to know from someone this week, if possible. Thanks!

    I figured out how to build the playlist. Now I have a playlist with all 5 slideshows on it. What's the next step to put it all on a dvd?

  • IWeb site loses functionality (Slide Show and Click to Enlarge)

    I have three iWeb sites, to which I have added Slide Show and Click to Enlarge features on Photo pages. They are all published via web.mac.com.
    Two of them lost these abilities after about a week, although the cursor still changes from an arrow to a hand when passing over Start Slideshow and the various pictures. The other site still functions normally.
    Recommendations?

  • Can I add a slide show to my iWeb created site using MobileMe

    Hi there,
    What I want to do is to create a folder with a load of pictures of me in them and then add them to the Home Page of my website, so that when people visit my website all the pictures play as an automatic slideshow at the top of the page and automatically scroll through all the pictures in that set.
    I have created my website in iWeb 09 and it is published on MobileMe, I really hope that someone can help me because I really want this to work. At the minuet I can add MobileMe photo albums but I cant get them to play as an automatic slideshow and just scroll through all the pictures (without having to open any separate windows or anything)
    Huge thanks for you help

    Jason ~ The following two suggestions don't involve MobileMe...
    Here's an example of a fast loading, looping embedded slideshow (not mine):
    http://www.heese-cadieux.com
    ...and done like this:
    iPhoto > select photos > File > Export... > QuickTime tab ...set width and height, etc.
    Then iWeb > Media button > Movies tab ...drag in your movie created above by iPhoto.
    Then iWeb > Inspector > QuickTime tab ...settings.
    Note: The above generates a QT slideshow of small file size and thus appears quickly in a web browser.
    An alternative approach (that doesn't require QT to be installed on the viewer's computer) is to set up a slideshow at weebly.com — open a free account there and then embed your Weebly slideshow page in your iWeb page:
    Embedding a Site Within an iWeb Page
    To see a Weebly looping slideshow, see the third example here:

  • Slide Shows in iLife, iPhoto, iWeb  '08 and Web Gallery

    I have iLife '08 abd thus iWeb '08 and developed my website in 2006 using iWeb '06. I also belong to .Mac and therefore have access to that Web Gallery or .Mac Gallery (unsure which name it has). I like the newer slide shows/carousels that are newly available and would like to know whether I can make such slide shows and place such slide shows in my iWeb website.
    I realize that another alternative is to make a slide show and put it in the Web Gallery and access it in my website via a URL pointing to the slidehow.
    Is it true that ALL OF THE VARIATIONS OF SLIDE SHOWS are created in iPhoto '08? If so, then I guess if I make the slideshows there, I can decide where I want to place them (in my website or in Web Gallery).

    Go to web gallery, find out the album ID that you need to delete.
    iDisk -> Web -> Sites -> _gallery
    Delete the album ID of the albums that arn't in iphoto.
    Then resync the albums missing.

  • IWeb 08 blogging with slide shows

    Help!
    I am using iWeb 08 in a fairly generic way. After seeing what her sisters have all been able to accomplish with blog sites such as blogger.com she wants to be able to include a slide show in her blogs. 2 questions:
    1. I have figured out how to export photos from iPhoto to quicktime. It creates a simple but usable slideshow in .mov format. I then open iWeb, click on the "entries" screen, create a new blow, then drag/insert the quicktime movie into the "placeholder" image to replace it in the blog. The problem is that when i go to my website, which opens up to the home page that shows all of the recent blogs with the most recent one first, the embedded quicktime file doesnt play. It only shows the first frame. When i click on it, it takes me a page with just that one blog on it, and then the mov file works, and i get my slideshow. What do i need to do make the .mov slideshow work in the home page. My wife wants the slideshow(quicktime movie) to work on the main page...).
    2. Second question. The quicktime slideshow is pretty generic. Sites like Picturetrail let you create pretty cool slideshows (flash files i believe) and then embed the html in your own blogsite ie blogger.com etc. I played around with embedding the html in iWeb and couldn't get it to work? A) can i embed a flash html in an iWeb blog, and B) will have the same problem of it not working on the homepage screen..
    Sorry for the long post. Huge brownie points if i can get it to work, not to mention less grief for switching to a Mac
    Thanks for your help!

    I have batch renamed all my assets, deleted all my slideshow thumb nails and replaced them so none of the images in my slide show have the same name as other assets anymore. I am sure this is what caused the problem.  I am about to reupload my website, so you won't be able to see the problem anymore (I sincerely hope).
    The problem wasn't always reproducible. To be able to reproduce the bug you need 10 different slideshows (all with images called page_1.jpg, page_2.jpg etc with more than 50 pages in some of the galleries, and then you have to upload the slideshows, make changes to the website,upload again, then make more changes to the website, then go to all the galleries one at a time with the thumbnails visable then uncheck the show thumbnails box for all the different slideshows and upload again.

  • Blogging, Podcasting, Slide-shows etc... on external URL

    Is it just me, or is there an issue with publishing a site to an external URL from iWeb?
    In my case the site I have created works perfect on .mac account, works fine on my desktop when published to a folder, but when uploaded to an alternative hosting provider, looses certain funcationality, namely blogs, and podcasts (in my case) and slide shows (as reported by others here).
    Is there certain scripts, softwares that we need to install at the server side?
    Personally I have got the rss feed working on podcast after editing some xml and html files (nothing major, only addresses).
    I suspect we need pool together, and determine what we need to install on the our servers, and develop a tutorial!

    Check out this support site about using two monitors, since that's what you're doing when you're projecting:
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT202351
    You can either set it to "mirror" or arrange the monitors side by side. Then when you want to show the working window on your projector slide it in the direction you set as the second monitor. Many teachers will do this to show a video or powerpoint to their class while working on another document or answering emails.
