Publish site not with MobileMe, done in iWeb

I have created a new site and want to publish it but not with the help of MobileMe.
When I mark the name of the site there is supposed to show a page where I can fill in all info about FTP and so on. But I just get a white blank page....?? I never see the page where I can fill in about FTP, Username e.g.
I need help !

You need to upgrade to iWeb 09 to have that feature.
In iWeb 08 you publish to a folder and use a free ftp app like cyberduck to upload.

Why is my published site not operational when using Firefox or IE?

The original problem I experienced had to do with the fact that my published site's navigation bar was totally missing on each page and replaced with a "period" as described by the following thread... http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=9899999&#9899999
The weird thing is that this problem only exists when using IE or Firefox on a PC (at work). Site is 100% operational using Safari on a Mac (at home).
Thinking my iWeb files were corrupt, I uninstalled and reinstalled iWeb '08. After doing so, I republished my site. The good news: the nav bar is now present on each page and operational. The bad news: my photo pages and blog page have zero content other than the header banner and nav bar. Again, this problem only exists when accessing the published site using IE or Firefox on a PC. The site is fully operational and all photos/blog entries present when accessing the site using Safari on my Mac.
What gives? Did a recent iWeb update (intended for iWeb 09 users or intel-based macs) corrupt my iWeb '08 on my PowerBook G4?

Please note that Java and Javascript are not related. iWeb uses a lot
of Javascript, not Java. There may be some issues with the Javascript
generated by iWeb -- I don't know. If it seems to work for someone
and not for someone else then it is an issue at the browser end, not
the website end. Each browser may not be handling the Javascript in
exactly the same way. (You gotta love standards.)

Site Not Appearing When I Open iWeb 09

When I open iWeb 09 my web site usually appears. Now the application opens but the site does not. The inspector apears but nothing else. Under File I cannot open a new page or new site. Under library/application support/iweb the file named Domain is there. If I try to open that the same thing occurs.
Just before this started happening I would be able to open my site and on my blog page the main page opens and looks fine but the page with the individuals blogs as well as the archive page were blank. The program crashed a couple of times and now nothing appears as I have noted above.
If you have any thoughts on what is happening or has happened and what I can do about it please respond. Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the link. Deleting the preferences file worked. Now I get my site back, however the problem with the blog remains.
I have the blog as a second site in iweb. It has been working fine as I have been creating it (haven't published this yet) but now only the Blog page is visible. The Entries page and the Archive page are blank white. When I went to try to publish it just now it came back with an error and unable to publish.
Any thoughts on this remaining concern? Thanks.

Help, published site not updated

Hi,
I published it and the links don't work, plus photos are scattered on the open house page. the links work on the Our Team site, but not on the welcome page.
Everything works and is set properly in iwork 08.

your hand made bottom navbar is in the body_layer but is is behind footer_layer, and that won't work because of z-index. see my post about z-index:
http://discussions.apple.com/click.jspa?searchID=-1&messageID=7431333
hand made navbar this is a pit fall ever since iweb1:
http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=6550436#6550436
you need to move your hand made navbar from behind footer_layer, try to change page 'content height' to something smaller (in Inspector --> Page --> Layout settings)...
or change z-index with javascript...
or scrub all the above and build the bottom navbar with a widget (notice the navbar get duplicated):

javascript is linked to my example.

Published site doesn't look like my iweb site

Trying to launch my iweb 08 site www.nwhorsemassage.com using acornhost in Portland, Oregon. I thought I uploaded site using FTP and renaming homepage index.html. When I open it on my desktop it looks great, going to the site it looks like a mess without pictures, color, and most text. What am I doing wrong?

Think your problems might come from re-naming a homepage index.html. You don't need to do this and it can cause confusion because iWeb creates a separate index.html page on publication to a folder.
Have you uploaded correctly? When you publish to a folder your will get one large site folder with all your files and your site in it and then a separate index page. You need to upload both these pages ibn full and then place then in either the www or the public_html folder at your host or whatever is there.

Published site has more pages that local iWeb files

I added several pages to my site. Then my hard drive crashed and my backup did not have the new pages. Now the published site has more pages than what i see when I open iWeb. How can I fix this? I want all the published pages also available in my hard drive.

You will have to recreate the new pages, unless you can use a file recovery service to ressurect the domain file that was on the crashed hard drive.
You can copy and paste images and text from the published website (view it in your browser) into new iWeb pages, but there is not a way to import html files back into iWeb.

Publish site NOT using MobilMe

Hello,
I am working on a site in iWeb for a school project. My teacher wants to se the process of the creation and I want to upload it manually on the Internet. Is this possible? Because of now when I press "Publish site" I get some stupid message up saying I have to pay etc...

Depending on the version you use, publish to a folder and use an ftp app to upload to your webserver.
In iWeb 08 it's in the File menu.
Or use iWeb 09 ftp built-in to do so.
Click the Sitename.
And browse this forum. It's discussed every day. You can also look to the right to see more of this.
Or simply wait for these answers to be delivered to you.

Delete old Iweb published site not saved

Hi Team, My compter crashed and I have a published website, but I dont have a backup of the files that created it. I have heard you cant download all of it and I have to start again. How do I delete it and start again??????? I have read how to get the bits and pieces back but I don't want it to count against my total iweb allowance.
Cheers Paul

site is web.mac.com/jpaullowe

First, you could look at this page for help in retrieving stuff......
http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebBackupretrieve.html
If you rebuild the site with the same name and publish it to MobileMe, you will overwrite the original or you can go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk/Web/Sites and delete the website folder and the index.html file.

Can use iweb and publish sites without a mobileme account?

I have a old imac and it died and I lost all of my websites and Im afraid that I cant republish the websites without a mobile me account… anyone know what I can do ?

When you 'lost your websites' do you mean you lost the 'Domain' file in your User/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder? iWeb keeps all its information there and if you do not have it you will have to recreate your site from scratch. If this is the case I would most strongly advise not using iWeb - it's not been sold or supported for some time now, and indeed v2 ('08) does not work with Mavericks: v3 may stop working on a future update. There are many other programs for making websites - Everweb is popular and is designed to be very like iWeb, with more facilities.
If you do have the Domain file then you can publish to any website hosting service as outlined by Old Toad. There is a more detailed description of the process for the two different versions here:
http://wilmut.uk/missing2
However if you are going to use iWeb remember that as I said a future system upgrade may very well break it; and you would find it very difficult to update the site by editing the published pages in the absence of being able to use iWeb and the Domain file.

Published site not matching iWeb

okay, let me see if i can make this make sense.
i can publish to .mac, but not everything publishes. specifically, i notice that older comments - while appearing in iWeb - do not publish to my .mac site. in addition, new blog posts, once they are published, dissappear from the domain.sites2 file the next time i open it in iWeb. additionally, new comments on blog posts are not saving in the domain file.
any ideas on where the breakdown might be occurring?

Hi, Old Toad. Here is an example. If you scroll down a bit, you will see a Hotel Indigo logo on the right side. In iWeb, I placed this logo parallel and to the right of the hotel name. However, it is now much higher. Thanks.

Synching Notes with MobileMe?

I have been trying to set up Note app synch between my girlfriend's iPhone(3Gs) and iPad. Phone is updated to 4.2.1, iPad is new.
Here's the problem:
In General>Mail,Contacts,Calendars, I select her MobileMe account, and then select Notes ON.
No Default Account setting shows up under Notes settings or under Mail, Contacts,Calendars, so I cannot select MobileMe to synch.
Any suggestions?

If MobileMe is set up on both devices, then whenever you ad a new note on either the iPhone or the iPad, you should see the little spinning gear going right after you hit "done" when you a finished creating or editing the note. That means it's syncing back to the server.
Glad it's working now.

Media Tab Missing in Publishing Site

Hello
I have a Publishing site created with the Publishing template. I edit the default.aspx page of the site and click 'Add a Web Part', I then select Media and Content and pick the Media Web Part. I then edit the web part, but I don't see the 'Media Tab' in
the ribbon.
I tried creating a new page but it still didn't show.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is not working?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Yoshi

Hi Yoshi,
I tried reproducing the issue in my SharePoint Server 2013 by creating a site collection of Publishing Portal. Then I created a new page, and inserted a media web part. When I click on the web part, WER PART tab and MEDIA tab were both shown in the ribbon.
Then I tried any possible reason, I deactivated publishing feature in site feature, then the media tab still existed. After I deactivated the publishing feature in site collection feature. The media tab disappeared and all ribbons in WEB PART tab greyed
out.
I’d recommend you check the if publishing feature is activated in site collection feature and site feature. Could you edit this media web part properties? Did the issue occur in other site collection with publishing feature activated? Did the issue occur
with admin permission?

My site no longer shows up in iWeb...

I made some changes in my site and kept the pages I had deleted in a "site 2" folder. After the last iWeb update, I find that "site 1" (my published site) no longer shows up in iWeb! I went to my library folder and the only "domain" file there is the one without my published site (site 1) on it.
Any ideas on what happened?

Open up your Finder window. Find the "user" list on your hard drive.
Open your "user" folder and navigate to: Library/Application Support/iWeb.
In the iWeb folder you should see a file entitled "Domain". Click on it and it should open up iWeb with all the information on your websites. If they still don't appear, then go to an older backup of this same file (easy with Time Machine) and try replacing the new "domain" file with the older copy.
If this doesn't work, then you are probably in the same boat I am, a sinking one...
I'm having to cut and paste all my text from off the web and re-build the site by scratch. The photos I will restore from iPhoto as drag and drop from my website will result in loss of resolution.
Like I said before, I'm glad I'm using something other than iWeb for my main website.

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!

How come my comments are visible in iweb but not on published site?

I published my site (after many frustrating attempts and publish errors) and had allowed comments. I made a blog entry and published to .mac and found out from a friend that that particular entry didn't have an option to add a comment. I tried to republish many times - I don't know how it happened but the comment option showed up eventually. I had the same thing happen again today so I tried publishing again but this time I tried publishing to a folder. Not sure if this caused the problem but now one comment on the blog disappeared and the rest are only visible in iweb and not on the published site - on the published site there isn't an opportunity to add comments where they used to be. Can I get the comments back on my site?
Thank you for any help.
MacBook Mac OS X (10.4.10)

Oh, rats. Do I need to remove the folder that I published to? I'm not even sure where to find it. I have republished successfully with the comments still in iweb but they don't show up on-line. I'd really like to get them back on if possible.
