Some people can't see my iWeb site

Quite a few people complain of not being able to see bits of my iWeb site, most typically these are users from the public sector, and they either can't see photos or albums, or, worse still, can't see any of the links iWeb puts automatically at the top of the page, so they only see the one page. Is there anything I can do make sure everyone can see it?

Many thanks. I'm downloading now and will give it a go. When I was looking for an update from within iWeb it just tries to sell you iLife '09!

Some people can't see my iWeb pages

I've just published my first iWeb site with two photo albums. When I view it online it is OK. When a friend with a Mac viewed it, it was also OK. Another Mac friend said it asked for a password. Another PC friend said he could only see small pictures. Another PC friend sees NO pictures.
I just tried clearing my Safari cache and the site loads OK. I then tried in Firefox and I see NO pictures.
Does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix it?
Here's the URL:
http://web.mac.com/martinhbalcomb/Site/MyAlbums/MyAlbums.html
Thanks

Can't see my iweb site. please help

I have just created an iweb site which worked fine and was able to visit using the safari button on the bottom of the iweb page which directed me to http://web.me.com/mmerry/Mikes_Inks/Welcome.html
I have added a domain name ‘mikesinks.com’ with go daddy which worked fine to start with but now when I go to the safari button it directs me to http://web.me.com/mmerry/Mikes_Inks/Welcome.html along with the message Safari can’t open the page “http://www.mikesinks.com/Mikes_Inks/index.html” because Safari can’t find the server “www.mikesinks.com”.
this also happens in firefox.
please can someone help.

Try it without the "
http://www.mikesinks.com/Mikes_Inks/index.html
Use the shortest URL possible to arrive at your site.
This will work : http://www.mikesinks.com/Mikes_Inks/
This will work : http://www.mikesinks.com/
And this link : http://mikesinks.com/ uses URL forwarding.
Use forwarding to : http://www.mikesinks.com/

I can't see my iWeb site on iPage hosting

I made my site in iWeb after upgrading to LION
I bought my domain name and published my site to the iPage hosting service
my site should appear at www.positivelyproudtobeme.com However, what shows up when I go to that URL is a blank white screen or a redirect page saying the site hasn't been created yet.
When I log into my ipage account directly, I can see the pages on preview, but can't get them to publish.
Can anyone help? Please!

The index.html file you have in your root folder is - more or less - blank. You need to upload a new copy. Try publishing the who;e site again using the iWeb FTP.
The external index.html file is slightly different to the one inside the website folder.
Your index.html ...
<HTML>
</HTML>
What it should look llike...

Where is your site hosted? If it's hosted on MobileMe you can use SEO to edit the site online. No need to get it locally.
If the site is hosted with a 3rd party fpt client then publish your site to a folder on your hard drive, use SEO on it there and then upload the site to your server with a 3rd party ftp client.
What do you mean "add a better blog"?

Can other people upload pictures to my iweb site and other people comment or rate them? if so how?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. If you use a MobileGallery from iPhoto to house your photos and videos you can set it up in the settings so visitors can upload items to the gallery via email.
Click to view full size
You can them embed the gallery in an iWeb page like this: MobileMe Galleries and Quicktime Movies.
I've not tried emailing a photo to a gallery so can't comment on how well it works.
For photo pages or album pages in iWeb visitors can add comments and attachments, photos, which other visitors can view. How they are added I don't know. Here's what the iWeb Help says about that:
+*About visitor comments and attachments*+
+If you publish your site to MobileMe, you can let visitors add comments and attach files (which other visitors can download) to blog, podcast, and photos pages. These comments and attachments are visible to anyone who visits your website. To prevent automated programs from posting spam to your site, anyone who posts a comment is first required to type a displayed group of characters.+
+Comments appear as soon as they’re posted, and you can delete a comment and its attachment at any time using iWeb or by visiting your site with any browser. You can also turn off comments to prevent new postings without affecting the comments already posted.+
+Comments and attachments are stored on your iDisk. Each comment can be a maximum of 32 kilobytes (KB), and each attachment can be up to 5 megabytes (MB).+
+IMPORTANT:Before posting anything to your website, make sure you own the copyright and other rights to what you or others are posting, or that you obtained all necessary permissions.+

iWeb stores the data in a Domain.sites2 file whose default location is shown here...

Move this to your new Mac.

That's exactly what you would get. Create a folder with a suitable name: publish to it. Zip it; email it. Tell them to start with the 'index.html' file inside the folder. The rest will follow - they will see it exactly as they would see an online site, links and all.
Note that there is usually a 20MB limit on email attachments so if your site is image-heavy you might have a problem. An alternative is to post it to your webspace - you could post the zipped file and give them a link to it - that will download it (and it's a preferable way of handing a large file anyway, as they can download it at their convenience rather than being forced to in order to get their other mail).

How can I make my iWeb site private?

How can I make my iWeb site private with a password?

The inbuilt facility to do this disappeared with the demise of MobileMe. It is possible: some ISPs offer this facility (GoDaddy is one) so you should start by checking whether yours does.
If not, you can do it yourself provided your ISP allows you to add an .htaccess file to your foldere - not all do. Also it's not entirely straighforward if you are unfamiliar with the techniques involved.
This page describes the method:
http://www.thesitewizard.com/apache/password-protect-directory.shtml
Please note the caveats at the bottom of the page: this isn't a highly secure method and you should not rely on it to protect sensitive information.

Is there a free loan calculator that I can put on my iweb site

Does anyone know of a free loan calculator that I can embed in my iweb site? I need a simple interest loan calculator where you can choose different terms, rates & amount financed.
Thanks.

Some users can't see attributes in the Query Builder

Hi.
I have problem. Some users can't see some of attributes of info-object in the Query Designer. Where is the problem?

I think you would need to give more details on the problem,
as <b>some</b> users are not able to see <b>some</b> attributes.
Do they all share the same profile, what is the distinguishing thing among the some users who can see the attributes and the ones who cannot see the attributes.
Need to drill down further I guess.
Cheers

Can't see my local site on ios device

Hi there!
Edge inspect is installed, Chrome is running, iMac and iPhone are connected with each other - but I can't see the local site I opened on my Mac in the iPhone screen.
I opened the the website I am currently working on with chrome on my Mac and now it should appear on my iPhone screen, too. Shouldn't it? Other regular www-tabs are shown.
What am I missing?
Thanks,
bartl

Hi bartl,
Edge Inspect needs the site to be served through a web server for a number of reasons, but primarily because that allows an external computer to access the files in a way that doesn't compromise machine security. To view local pages you can set up a web server like MAMP/WAMP or Web Sharing on iOS, so you don't need upload your files to a web server elsewhere. Inspect understands localhost and 1270.0.1 URLs and the connected devices will translate those so you don't need to set up a virtual host name.
You're right, Edge Inspect doesn't provide web hosting as a feature, and it's not intended to. The primary features of Edge Inspect are:
synchronous browsing - so if you have multiple devices connected you don't need to browse/refresh on each individually
connection management - so that devices connect quickly and easily and (attempt to) remain connected to your computer
screenshots - take individual or multiple screenshots simultaneously with a single click and without needing to root the device
remote inspection - inspect the DOM of the remote device on your computer via weinre
Hope this helps,
Mark

How can I transfer my iWeb site to iCloud?

The cloud doesn't do website hosting. You need to publish your site via the iWeb FTP or to a local folder and upload to a hosting account...

How can I import my iWeb sites??????

I had a crash trying to install Leopard.
I have reinstalled the original OS with my new Intel iMac. BUT - how can I get my web sites back into iWeb? I REALLY do not want to have to recreate all these pages! It's insane! Is it just ME, or is there absolutely NO WAY to import my stuff in the folder (which I backed up, luckily)? Or do I have to recreate the sites YET AGAIN? Is there no way to make separate web sites so that they don't have to ALL be published in the same folder and have to save and resave and resave EVERYTHING over and over every time I do a new page, or update or whatever. It's maddening.
Judie

THANK YOU!
I just checked it out and it sounds too good to be true.
I won't do anything with it until I have Leopard installed, but it's great to know it's there and the PRICE IS RIGHT!
Also, about my install: We bought a 5 pack license and made a copy for me. SOMEONE didn't verify the disk and it obviously had a glitch. When it was checked it got to about 30% and I got a message that the disk wouldn't work. So I clicked whatever buttons I was told to and then got the blue/grey screen. It sat there so long I had to turn it off with the button. Perhaps it was trying to reset everything to before I tried the install, I don't know. So, the problem wasn't necessarily Leopard and my computer, but the disk to start with and perhaps I compounded it by not waiting for 28 hours for it to fix itself <G>. Anyway, I have to kick myself for not doing a back up of EVERYTHING, and my famous last words were "Nothing ever screws up with a mac."
Lesson learned. I will have a 500G hard drive next week and this will never happen again.
I will also disconnect all peripherals as I saw some people suggested that was causing problems. But, what is MOST annoying after the data loss is all the TIME that it takes to do this. I have work to do on this darned machine!
Thanks again for the RapidWeaver tip, tboelsklfte.
