"Sub-pages" in iWeb

I am making a site in which one of the pages needs a bunch of "sub-pages" that should not be listed among the main menu links (Welcome, About Me, Contact, etc.) The main page, listed on the menu, will be called "Books" and each sub-page will concern one book. I want to have five or six of these. This would create way too much clutter if each book were included in the main menu.
The sub-pages could be listed on a drop-down menu from Books. If iWeb won't do this, I could simply link manually from within each page's content. But every time I go to create a new page, iWeb wants to put in the main menu.
Is there a way to accomplish my goal with iWeb?
Thanks!

James ~ See this Apple doc:

Regarding sub-pages, this article may help:

Or, instead of iWeb, use a free web-based app such as weebly.com that provides for sub-pages:

  • How do I create sub-pages in iWeb?

    Hi, How do I create sub-pages in iweb like it does in this website
    http://www.e-alliance.ch/index.php?id=405
    with all the main menus "about us", "advocacy capacity", etc?
    Thank you for your help!!!

    To create sub pages, just ensure that the main menu item is in the main menu and then for the sub pages themselves, ensure that they are NOT in the main menu and you link back by creating links instead.
    For example, you could use Staff as a main menu item, so Staff would be in the main menu and then descriptions of different staff members would be underneath, but not in the main menu - they would have separate links that you create and then hyperlink.
    If you want to make drop down menus in iWeb, as in the site that you linked to, you can't do this directly in iWeb itself.  You have to make it and then upload various css files to your web host and link to it in iWeb etc.  It is quite a complex task to create drop down menus in iWeb.  If you want to do that, then I would suggest that you use a different app instead - take a look at http://www.everwebapp.com.

  • Creating sub-pages in iWeb'09?

    Hello!
    i've just starte using iWeb, and trying to create my own web page. I can't find a solution on the above: how can i create "sub-pages"? For example: I want to create a main page called Photos (appearing in main menu bar), and UNDER this page i want to create "sub-pages" called photos1, photos2, photos3, etc. (appearing UNDER Photos page).
    How can I do this?
    Thanks,
    Bazsi21

    Hello:
    I just read your post regarding creating web pages in iweb. This is something i have been trying to do also. Do you happen to know whether there's a way of creating sub pages from the main navigation menu, rather than pasting hyperlinks into the page. If i create an envertainment magazine, and one section is "movies", then I want all articles on movies to fall within that category, WOuld be far easier if visitors click on 'movies' link in navigation bar, and then see the list of articles. Is there a way to do this in iweb?
    If not, i am wondering why Apple didn't include this basic necessity when creating the program.
    I look forward to hearing from you.
    Thanks.

  • Sub-Pages on iWeb

    Hello Forum! I am learning how to create an iWeb site. I'm curious to do the following:
    If I want something like a sub-page, let's call it "My Portal", to be under the "About Me" link...how do I do that?
    Another words, people that will come to visit my site, they'll see that there's an "About Me" link, but they won't see the "My Portal" sub-page, until they go to the "About Me" page. That's the only way "My Portal" will be visible.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks so much in advance!!

    Find out more about iWeb navigation here...
    http://iwebfaq.org/site/iWebNavigationmenu.html
    Larger sites are usually organized into main sections that are listed in the main navigation. Each main section has a sub menu to navigate around it.
    In your case, About Me would be in the main navigation and My Portal, and any other pages you may want to add in the future, would be in the sub navigation. This is probably more than you want at the moment but will help you stay organized as you website grows.

  • Can there be an Home/Index page that has links to sub pages in iWeb?

    How do you set up a Home page with links to other Photo web pages?
    iWeb does a super job creating individual pages full of photos.
    But if I want to have a "Directory" page that kicks off the whole site, how do I do that in iWeb?
    I want to break up my photo pages into groups like:
    Portraiture, Still Life, Life Style etc.

    Thanks Will.
    Most of my site is created in iWeb. I have been messing around with a iCalendar PHP also, to create a nice calendar for the site.
    The Home page is a couple of programs used together.
    1. I drew sketches of the little main street.
    2. recreated the main Street in a GREAT program called SketchUp. it is the most User Friendly 3D program around and their Website has super tutorials to get you up and running in no time - seriously. Then exported it out to Photoshop as a flattened jpg. (I also did this for the individual buildings for my Banners)
    3. In Photoshop, I painted my buildings and gave them some personality.
    4. I originally had an Image Map that I created in ImageReady as my Home page, but that doesn't work for iWeb, so I had to use Flash.
    5. I made a Flash Movie creating my Buttons and Links and Rollovers (Here you have to Plan some, cause you need to what pages you will have at the end and know the URL to the final pages iWeb produces. It is something like ..sitefolder/sitename/Home.html.
    6. Then, I published it as a Quicktime Movie from Flash. You have to Publish as Flash 5 compatible in order to get a quicktime movie. Also, I set up my movie to loop, no controller, and auto play in Flash.
    7. Put it on my Home page. (The controller shows up in iWeb, but not in the final Published Site. (I also do not have to manually change the HTML to autoplay "true" and controller "false" on this particular page. I do have to on others though.)
    Thanks again Will, for your kind words - I have been working very hard on this site.
    Also, don't forget to go to Suzanne's Site 11mystics.com for a lot of information and iWeb tips, tricks, and related links.

  • How to add sub pages in iWeb templates

    Anybody knows how to add a sub pages in the templates? I want to add sub pages under the main header, e.g. "About Us."

    Just to say that you can do it in the way that Steve has already said and I did this on one of my sites and it worked really well.
    Lets take your example of About George. You create your page About George and you include this page in your navigation menu. Now lets suppose that you have more that you want to add about George with two other pages - George at Work and George at Play. You want to link to these pages from About George, but you don't want the page names visible. Well, you can do this by creating the pages and then going to Inspector. Click on pages and then check don't include in navigation menu. Then you can create links on the About George page to get to the other pages George at Work and George at Play - use shapes or text boxes to create these with something like Back and Next on those pages to take you forward to the next page and then back to the main page.
    I think you will need to create your own nav bar to be able to achieve this, as it means linking to different pages, but it does work well.

  • Trying to make seperate sub pages for a website?

    I have a website that I would like to make sub pages for.
    Example www.marisaleigh.com/411
    Can I make sub pages in iweb? How can I do that?
    THANKS!
    Marisa

    You need to select some text or an object in order to make the enable hyperlink to become available.
    You can create a hyperlink to your payment page by adding some text (something like "Click here to order" or whatever), selecting the text and go to the link pane and select the Link to External page. Then put http://www.LASTARBABIES.com/payment into the URL window. Then you can format the link color and rollover color in the Format section of the link pane.
    The resulting link would look something like this: Click here to order". You can set the page to open in a new window or not.

  • Maximum number of pages in iWeb?

    Is there a maximum number of pages that one can have in iWeb?
    Thanks!

    There is no "maximum".
    Once a website has got to a dozen or so pages it needs to be broken up in to "main" pages with related "sub" pages. These sub sections are better to be built on separate domain files so that they can be worked on and published one at a time.
    Otherwise the navigation menu gets out of hand and you would have to do a lot of scrolling in iWeb to find the individual pages!

  • Creating sub pages

    How does one do this in iWeb?

    Keep main page in the navigation menu and then for your sub pages, you don't put them in the nav menu - open the Inspector and then click on Page and then click on the box that has "don't include page in nav menu" and that is it.
    You then create your own links on the sub pages back to the main page and wherever you want by using either shapes or text boxes or whatever.
    To make the whole process easier, you could always ditch the iWeb page template nav menu by turning it off and creating your own text based nav menu, which makes creating sub pages easier - you just don't include what you don't want.

  • Sub Menus/Sub Pages in iWeb09?

    Hi all, VERY new to this iWeb thing, but there is one question I need to ask:
    Can you do sub-pages after navigating to a main navigation page?
    For example:
    If I have a website for a company that has a page for each member of the business that you navigate to from the main navigation menu bar, is there then a way to have sub pages from each of these main people's pages to go to FROM WITHIN their page?
    Hope I make this clear enough to understand!
    Cheers,
    David

    For the main navigation, you can either use the iWeb default one, or build your own which gives you an opportunity to customize the look.
    http://www.iwebformusicians.com/WebMusic/Navigation.html
    If you choose to keep the default navigation, go to the Page inspector and uncheck the box "Include page in navigation menu" for each page you that you don't want to appear in it. In other words, the extra pages for each sub section.
    Build a sub navigation in a text box for each section and create the hyperlinks to the pages of this section.
    If you want to build your own main navigation, uncheck "Display navigation" for each page of your site.
    The site I referred you to above is build on ten different domain files for ease of handling and updating. The main menu consists of external hyperlinks to each section and the sub menu uses internal links.
    For an example of a site that is built on one domain file and has a custom main and sub navigation go to .......
    http://roddymckay.com/PlanetRoddyPhotoSatellite/iWebPhotoSatellite.html
    Here, both the main and sub navigation use "Link to: One of my pages" in the Link inspector.

  • Sub pages

    My website is growing pretty rapidly and I want to know if there is a way to group pages together. I know iWeb supports it, I want sub pages to be in a hierarchly like the way Archive is beneath Podcast. It will just clean up my sidebar and make things much easier for me.

    Nope only Blogs and Podcasts do that

  • I would like to create sub-pages

    I would like to create pages that are sub-pages of other pages

    It will cost you a lot of time as family trees have lots of links.
    I use ohmigene : http://ohmi.celeonet.fr/ohmiGene/indexEN.html to generate html pages.
    It has a very clumsy interface and there are errors in the html pages, so you'll have to correct them.
    In iWeb you can use an iFrame (insert html snippet) to show the index page of your family tree.
    But, you better ask someone experienced with html family trees.

  • How can I get a song to play automatically on a web page ?     iWeb 1.1.2

    Can I get a song to play automatically when my web page opens? iWeb 1.1.2

    As long as you don't mind doing a little post publish editing of your .js files, it's fairly easy to do. You will find them in this path on your iDisk, using the Go menu in Finder:
    Go/iDisk/MyiDisk/Sites/iWeb/Nameofsitefolder/Page_filesFolder/Page.js
    Open the .js files for that particular page on your iDisk with any text editor (I like Taco, and it's free) and make the following changes to the script code that controls your movie: (you will find the movie code near the top of the page in the .js file)
    Change autoplay="false" to autoplay="true"
    Change loop="false" to loop="true"
    Changing controller value="true" to controller value="false" will remove the controller from the page entirely. Make these changes in both sets of tags, (object and embed).
    Make the changes and just "Save". Clear your browser cache and you should see the changes take effect immediately. Bear in mind you will have to make this modification each time you republish your site. You can also save this modified .js file and replace the republished file with it, as long as no other changes were made to the page in iWeb.

  • Hi, I'm making hyperlinks. They work for the main page of the webpage, but when I'm trying to redirect the hyperlink to a "sub page" of the webpage it is still going to the main page. (allthough I'm pasting the complete url address)

    Hi! first of all, thank you so much for your help.
    I don't know about that panel you are talking about.
    what I do is RIGHT CLICK, INTERACTIVE, NEW HYPERLINK, and a window pops up, where I paste the address (images).
    Where says URL I paste the complete address that the "sub page" gives me.
    Is that correct? (for the main page of the wabepage works correctly)
    thanks!!!
