Secure sites, Google and Business Catalyst

Hi guys!
I read today in a Mashable article that google is going to start bumping up rankings of website with the https prefix. I know that BC uses the prefix but it always comes accompanied by the .worldsecuresystems in the domain. Does anyone know if business catalyst has anything in the works for this? I know this has been discussed before but it seems like it could be more pertinent now.
Thank you.

Nothing from BC yet, lots of threads on this already. Lots of people up in arms on the web, lets see if they change their minds as well (google) - It would not be the first reversal on decisions similar to this one.

  • Looking into starting a business using creative cloud and business catalyst

    Hi,
    I am just looking for a bit of clarification on a few things. I am looking at using Creative cloud and Business Catalyst for a new business.
    Firstly, if I have both a Mac and a PC, will one creative cloud subscription allow me to install on both?
    Secondly, with Business Catalyst if I am wanting to make more than 5 websites, do I have to use the partner plan? or is this just if I want to make comission? Basically can I pay individually for subscriptions to more than 5 sites on behalf of customers without paying the initial partner fee while I am starting up? Obviously long term the partner option makes sense but short term for start up it would be useful to just sell the adobe subscriptions without earning comission. Hope this makes sense?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Adam

    Hi Adam,
    I'm very happy to hear that you want to start a business using BC and Creative Cloud - this is one of the goals of our integration.
    To you first question, yes, you can install Creative Cloud on both your machines.
    To your second question - you don't need to be a paid partner while you're starting up. You can remain a free partner, and just buy supplemental websites from the Partner portal. You're right, you won't get the comission, but it's a pretty good deal anyway.
    If you're starting up, I also strongly recomment the BCGurus "Zero to BC Hero" training program - not only they explain you the BC product, but they also include a lot of great business insights on running a web agency
    Sincerely,
    Alexandru

  • Taking a Muse site live with Business Catalyst

    I have a complete Student and Teacher creative cloud subscription through my school (I am a student). And I have designed a website in Muse. I would like to take it live via Business Catalyst, but when I click "Launch Site," I get a window that says, "To launch this site you should upgrade to a paid Adobe Creative Cloud Membership which includes hosting for 5 sites with Adobe Business Catalyst." Then it directs me to the purchase page. But I already have a cloud membership. What's happening? Can anyone help me out?

    Hi,
    Creative cloud individual subscription allow you to host 5 free sites with Business catalyst. As you are using Student edition, your product does not qualify for free sites. To push your site live, you must pay for it.
    Do let me know if you have any question.

  • Mixing  ordinary html and business catalyst

    Hello,
    I am trying to come up with a decent workflow for my designers , who can draw up a page in photoshop or indesign, bring it in DreamWeaver,
    then when it is final ,I want the page to sit with other web apps in businesscatalyst like email marketting.
    Is this a standard practise?
    I am having some issue, which may be because one of the designers was using Muse.
    However I want to know if we can add a brand new page in dream wever and let it it seamless with rest of business catalyst generated sit.
    Can any one give me an answer from first hand experience with DreamWeaver and Business Catalyst? Thanks for your time.
    Cheers
    Pronob

    I figured this : we need to first  create a site through the business catalyst site  option in dream weaver.
    Once it is done we can import other sites into the same site, by first creating a local copy of the site to be imported and then specifying the same business catalyst site that we created already as the remote server.
    After that we can selectively upload individual files /pages from the importing site[local copy].

  • Create and send EDM using Adobe MUSE and Business Catalyst.

    There is just one thing missing in my armour as a graphic designer – creating and sending EDMs.
    Given the success of creating websites using Adobe Muse, an EDM functionality would be a fantastic addition to MUSE and Business Catalyst (BC). Imagine this:
    1. I open Adobe Muse.
    2. I select "New EDM"  (instead of "New Site").
    3. I design and build my EDM to spec.
    4. I test my EDM using 'Preview' or a single send to myself.
    5. I publish my EDM to Business Catalyst.
    6. In BC, I review my EDM and add 'FROM NAME', 'FROM EMAIL ADDRESS' and 'SUBJECT'.
    7. I import my database.
    8. I hit SEND!
    After my EDM has gone out, I can review a report in BC - just like any report for a website.
    As a designer that does not know code but can build a website using MUSE - creating an EDM is the one thing I can't personally offer. Using a digital supplier can be expensive and website like Mail Chimp aren't professional enough.
    To the Adobe Muse team, please – for the love of humanity – consider this as viable addition to MUSE. You will save a lot of heart ache and win a lot of hearts.
    Thanks,
    Phil

    Done!

  • Adding a search bar when using Muse and Business Catalyst

    Hello and greetings,
    I am creating a site with Adobe muse and Business Catalyst integration for blogs and ecommerce.  I know you can add a search bar using this tutorial from Muse Themes. However, will it search everything created between both Muse and Business Catalyst, or will it only search for Muse created content if inserted in Muse?
    Does anyone know?

    Hello,
    When you create a search option in a Business Catalyst site, it searches everyting in the site, all th contents of the site that is. So, whatever the content of the site is, it will be indexed for searching purposes, provided you used the BC search bar.
    Cheers

  • Publishing a Unique Site Using Dreamweaver CS6 and Business Catalyst

    What are the steps to publishing a unique site using Business Catalyst with Dreamweaver? By "unique site" I mean not using Business Catalyst templates, but rather my own original site design and directory. Also, does Business Catalyst support flash based sites? I tried to start a new BC site using one of my flash based sites and it wouldn't show up in the preview, but rather resorted to using a layout of one of the BC templates. I can't find any information on how this all works as a Creative Cloud subscriber. For example, you provide "learn more" links from the website seciton on the CreativeCloud default subsriber's page, but when I click on that there is no relative information other than some videos about Muse and Dreamweaver, but nothing on how I can use either of those apps as integrated with publishing sites on Business Catalyst. There is a BC help page: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst.html?promoid=IMJLB but this is in context of being a BC member, not a Creative Cloud subsriber so all of the information doesn't relate, especially if someone want to publish a unique site using Creative Cloud.

  • How do I edit the CSS of a Dynamic Menu with Dreamweaver and Business Catalyst.

    I've watched tutorials on v2 menu module and it obviously was not made for someone just starting out in Business Catalyst. I want to edit the CSS of my Dynamic Module, preferably V1, but if I have to use version 2 I will. The problem I am running into is that the width of the menu I am trying to make is not big enough. The menu is extremely simple, I could whip it up with css and html in a matter of minutes. Just black words horizontal layout with a dark red hover color and selected state. I can change all that in Business Catalyst Site Manager just fine, however, the width of my menu when I look at it on the site, is way too small. Probably only 750px wide. I want it 1000px wide, but I haven't the faintest idea of where to find that information to change. When I add the menu module to my html code i get this: {module_menu,1534789}. How do I add or find css/html to edit the properties? I know I can add classes to the items inside the menu in the Site Manager, but where do I find the html code that shows those names?
    I'm obviously missing something important and probably really easy, so I hope someone can help.
    Thanks, Evan Schmidt

    I went ahead and built the navigation without a module, easier than wasting all this time trying to figure it out.
    But initially my main problem was when I add the Menu module to my html in dreamweaver, this:  {module_menu,1534789} would be put in my html instead of css/html code. Now if publish my site and look at the page source, it shows the css/html, but it doesn't in dreamweaver. So is that the only way to edit the css/html code, copy the page source and replace the {module_menu,1534789} with the copied code in dreamweaver?

  • Can't use Hosting and Business Catalyst

    I have full CC-Membership, but can't use Hosting and BC.
    Following messages appearing on my CC-Account:
    On the apps-Page:
    "Full Creative Cloud Membership comes with hosting for up to 5 sites. View and manage these sites from the sidebar on the Creative Cloud home page."
    On the sidebar
    "Full Creative Cloud Membership comes with hosting for up to 5 sites."

    Same. This had me perplexed too for a while. And the 'help' pages aren't particularly 'helpful', so I did little poking around in the apps themselves.
    As it turns out, if you open up Dreamweaver and go to the 'Site' menu, there's an option to create a Business Catalyst test site from there (Dreamweaver helpfully crashed for me while doing this, but upon reopening it was all working). You pick a  site name and subdomain, assign a local folder, it asks for your CC/Adobe credentials (because it would make too much sense to just sign in automatically) and you should be good to go.
    After doing this and uploading a dummy test page, when I reloaded the Creative Cloud homepage it was now listing my test site undeneath the aforementioned confusing text in the sidebar.
    Hope that helps.

  • Delete site in Adobe Business Catalyst

    How can I delete a SITE create in Adobe Business Catalyst, I have a Creative Cloud account.

    From this post from the Business Catalyst forum:
    Login the into the admin first
    After login click on the Partner Portal link on the top.
    Click on clients tab
    Click the site that you want to delete
    Under Details section on the righthand side you will find [Delete site] option at the bottom right corner of details section or next to the Upgrade site button.
    Click Delete site button a feedback will be asked fill it if you want or just press the Delete site button at the bottom of the form and your site will be deleted
    Hope this helps!
    EDIT: Here's a screenshot of what this function looks like, found in a very recent BC blog post:
    Delete paid and Creative Cloud sites from the Admin Console
    We moved the "Delete Site" functionality to the Admin Console of the website in order to help Creative Cloud users and beginners cancel an existing paid website that they don't need anymore. Here's a snapshot of this new feature.
    Note that this "new" BC does not go live until July 2nd, so this feature may not be accessible until then.
