Un-publishing a site

Hello-- Is it possible to take my site off the web and still save the pages? How do I "unpublish" and still save everything as is to be re-published at a later time? Sorry-- I know this is probably easy to do, but I've only used iweb once and I'm really fumbling.
Also couldn't find an answer when I searched on the forum, though I'm sure it's on here or iweb "Help" somewhere.
Thanks!

Where is your site published online? MobileMe or somewhere else? Logon to your host and remove the site from there. If it's MobileMe then go to Finder/Go/iDisk/My iDisk and remove the site from the web folder by selecting it and pressing delete. If it's on a different host then access their FTP control panel through their site if it's available and remove it from there or login to your host through an FTP application and remove it.

Adding meta tags to published web site

I have created my website using iWeb and subsequently downloaded the RAVE SEO tool and used it to add for meta tags to my sites (description and keywords).
I followed this procedure:
1) I published my site from iWeb to a local folder on my iMac
2) I added the meta tags using the RAVE SEO tool
3) I tried to publish the site to my webhotel with tags added using the ftp tool in the RAVE SEO tool.
PROBLEM:
when I publish from the SEO tool, it is the old sites which are published. In my local folder where I started out publishing the web site to, I can see that the tags from description and keywords have been added. But the site which is published does not contain the tags.
I have a feeling that the SEO tool is looking in a wrong foder, but I cannot change the folder using the "FTP Details" funktion in the SEO tool.
Do anyone have a suggestion for what to do?
Thanks,
Klaus

When you click publish and choose FTP you can create a new setup or use an existing one.
And if you do not know which folder to publish to, click browse. You decide.

When I publish my site on one specific page where i've added {tag_pagecontent} I get the error:Some files on the server may be missing or incorrect. Clear browser cache and try again. If the problem persists please contact website author.

I'm trying to get a blog module going, I've even deleted the html insert bog with the tag in and re-published which then I don't get the error but as a result no blog either. But then I add the tag in again and publish the error comes back. I've used the dev console and it says that my musicians sample.css is out of date but why is it only out of date when I add in html to my muse site?
HELP!!!! I've searched other threads and to no avail I'm publishing so no direct ftp going on. the only thing I changed in business catalyst was the module stylesheet in order to style the blog. I've tried uploading and replacing all files nothing seems to work. the site is here:
http://www.musicstudentsforhire.co.uk/musicians-samples.html
It's only this page as it has the blog on. Also I've noticed when I've re-published occasionally it will show the mobile version on my desktop and not the desktop version??? no idea why that's happening so I've had to turn that off. any explanation on why that is happening would also be much appreciated.

I haven't received an answer as of yet, I'll post t on here when I do. I de-activated the mobile site because it's my clients site so he needs it to be operational during the day. I hope someone gives me an answer soon.

I cannot view my site in browser or publish my site after 2014.3 update

Hi,
I updated to 2014.3 and cannot view my site in browser or publish. I see that alot of other people are having issues. Can you please assist. This is very frustrating.
I am using OS X Yosemite 10.10.2.
Thank you
Brett

Hi Sanjit,
I cannot even publish the site. Muse crashes when I try to view site in browser and it crashes when I try to publish the site. It is not the browsers - yes I have tried. It has only happened since I updated to 2014.3 - just like everyone else having problems. This is a problem with the update. I can make a new site in the new release and it works - however all existing sites built before 2014.3 release is no good. This a big problem that needs sorting out. I should not have to rebuild everything again. I have sent my muse file via dropbox, as I have seen other people having trouble being asked to send the file through and it will be looked at. The url is http://australiasnaturecoast.businesscatalyst.com/ . This is not the correct version as I made a new site in the new muse update. I need my original version to work. I have tried uninstall and reinstall of Muse and this has not helped.
Thanks

Can I publish one page at a time to the ftp when publishing entire site?

I am currently using iweb to manage my website and i changed a number of pages and require to re-publish the entire site. When i go to do this it attempts to bundle all the files together and publish, but the site only allows for 8 connections via ftp. Is there a way that when i publish the entire site that i can publish one page at a time?
Thanks for your help!

Publish your site to a local folder...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
... and upload the files using an FTP application...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Upload.html
That way you can upload individual files and folders - one at a time.

Publish one site at a time

If I have two "sites" on my iweb, how do I publish one at a time. I keep getting messges that I can't connect to iweb. This was during the time I was uploading new pages and each one was going fine. I thought this was because I had too many pages, so I separated them to two "sites". This now shows many pages with changes (as in red folders), but I only want to publish one "site". Anyone have the same issue? It was taking 20 minutes to get the error message.....

I use iWebSites to manage the multiple sites.. It lets me create multiple sites and multiple domain files.
If you have multiple sites in one domain file here's the workflow I used to split them into individual site files with iWebSites. Be sure to make a backup copy of your original Domain.sites files before starting the splitting process and move it to another location on your HD until you're satisfied the separation process is completed and what you want.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

Error while trying to publish a site...

Hello,
I'm quite new to Muse and I wanted to try to publish my site, (which is at its very beginning) but I got an error message.
It says "Error: Error uploading file +.png. Click resume to try again. If this problem persists, try again later".
I know I did make the mistake of creating a file named "+", it was just for a test and I immediately deleted it, so I don't understand why it's asking for it while publishing. In doubt I checked the assets and did not find the file in the list. I renamed the file in my folder as "plus.png" and I made a search on my entire computer to make sure I hadn't forgotten one somewhere. I quitted Muse and relaunched it but the problem remains. Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks in advance

Sorry to have bothered. I found where the problem was. In fact, in one of my pages I had an animation made with Edge Animate and in the Images panel was the "+.png" that was causing the problem. I don't know why it's still there but it is. The animation I made has nothing to do with the plus image and that image is not used in the animation... well... I changed the name to plus.png and the problem was solved.

TS2167 I changed my header in iweb and when I published the site the font had shrunk and it displayed incorrectly. It was only on my home page, not on others. I have iweb 3.0.4. Help!?!?

I changed my header in iweb and when I published the site the font had shrunk and it displayed incorrectly. It was only on my home page, not on others. I have iweb 3.0.4. Help!?!?

Just in-case anyone els runs into this, I figured it out... I was working from my hotel and apperantly the fire wall was not allowing anything to uplaod, but I wasn't getting an error message from iweb, it would say that everything was published succesfully even though it wasn't. Once I went home and used my connection eveything worked fine.

Hyperlink is not working after publishing my site!

I can fully activate my newly added page on my iweb site with no problem. I created a button and hyperlinked it to the newly created page. After I publish my site, the new button is NOT clickable. I created a new photo gallery page. I already have 1 photo page so when I clicked on that page, at the very top I am seeing a clickable link that will lead me to my newly created page. THIS IS NOT HOW I HAVE IT SET UP THOUGH! I have a button on my home page that if clicked, it will take you right to the new page! I tested it and it works! I go and publish my site and all the sudden it does NOT work!!! Anybody have a clue why this is?

Turn on DB logging and see what the syntax is that CR tries to send to the Server. You can also enable crlogger ( search for this and you'll find a KBA on how to enable or DB logging component )
First guess is the Date format is wrong, typically is the cause. try removing the date from the SQL and see if that works. Then try to add the selection formula in CR Designer and look at the SQL being generated
Can be specific because you did not mention what DB you are using.

How can I publish iWeb site in root directory in place of a prior site?

Hi there... I have created a family web site and published it to my .mac account. The problem is that I had previously published another site and that site remains in the 'root' directory of my account. Practically, this means that if anyone types in:
web.mac.com/[username]
... they will get my old site instead of the site i wish them to see... Is there any way I can move my new site so that typing the more simplified 'root' address (above) will bring up the site I wish for them to view?

Do you have both sites in iWeb together? If so, then simply look in the Site Organizer, select the site that you want to come up by the short URL and drag it to the top of the organizer. iWeb will make whatever site is at the top of the Site Organizer the default site. You should probably do a "Publish ALL to .Mac" after doing this so that all the files are in the right place. So once you do this you can access the default site with the short URL http://web.mac.com/yourname and then you can access the second site by using its URL directly... http://web.mac.com/yourname/iWeb/sitetwoname You could also provide links from site one to site two and vice versa to "link" the two sites together.

I replaced my hard drive and I backed up my files on an external hard drive but when I reloaded my iweb to my imac none of my files were on it so I can't make changes to my Published web site have I lost my files what can I do

By default iWeb keeps its data in (user)/Library/Application Support/iWeb in a file named Domain. Without this file you cannot proceed (other than by recreating the site from scratch using the published version as a reference) so you need to locate it on the original disk.
To confuse matters, Apple have hidden the user’s Library folder in Lion and Mountain Lion to casual viewers, in an attempt to stop new Mac users messing their machines up. To access it, in the Finder go to the ‘Go’ menu and hold down the Option (Alt) key; the Library folder will appear as a choice.

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!

IWeb error messages -- can't publish large site after upgrade.

I just upgraded to iLife 09 and all of my websites showed up red in the new iWeb - indicating that they needed to be published. I hadn't changed any of them since the upgrade but I figured it was part of the upgrade to republish all of them.
Whenever I try to publish the sites I get the following message:
An error occurred while publishing file “/private/var/folders/pM/pMWBd0yEF04cfDIeAZkuPE+TI/TemporaryItems/com.apple.iWeb7281_TEMP_288612390_15/sites/JW/Things_and_Such_files/shapeimage2.png”. Try publishing again later.
I've tried all the usual suggestions. I threw away the preferences files and cache files for iWeb. I logged out of MobileMe and logged back in. I tried to publish from an older version of my Domain file from Time Machine. If I tell it to publish the site to my desktop then it works just fine. The site that it has problems with creates a 179MB folder on my desktop when I publish to my desktop. The other two sites that I have in iWeb publish perfectly in MobileMe but are not bigger than 3 MB each.
I tried moving parts of the larger site out of it, publishing the significantly shrunken page and then adding the rest back in smaller pieces. It will publish the smaller selection with no problem. It won't let me add the pieces back in, however. IWeb freezes up when I try and I have to reload the previous Domain file from Time Machine.
So, my question is: Is there a limit to the size of site that can be published using iWeb? If so how do I get around this?

Reboot fixed it.

Ensure the page you are linking to exists in the correct folder.
Check your file name for case sensitivity . Index.htm is not the same as index.htm!
Temporarily disable any rewrite rules by renaming your .htaccess file if it exists

It's a really bad idea to post your email address - it's an invitation to spam - and I've asked the Hosts to remove it. (Even though I've now noticed you mis-spelled it! - anyway, never post your address in a forum.)
You have a site here: http://virginiagordon.com/www.virginiagordon.com/WELCOME.html
If that's not the page you are having trouble with, what is that page's URL?

iWeb has two other ways to publish your site...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Publish-Website.html
... and the second method allows you a choice of how you upload the files...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/URLs-Favicons.html
Here's a publishing workflow checklist...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Website-Publishing-Wo rkflow.html
The MobileMe only features can be replaced by alternatives...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Comments-Password-Protect.html
If you have folders of assets outside of the main website folder on MobileMe, download them from the Apple server. From the Finder Go menu, follow the path iDisk/My iDisk/ to get there. Your website files are in the Web/Sites folder. Drag any files/folders onto the desktop.
Use an FTP application to upload these assets to the root folder on your new server...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/Upload.html
...and change the relevant URLs to...
http://www.domain-name.com/Folder-Name/file-name.file-extension
There are lots of options for hosting for about half the cost of MobileMe...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/iWeb/Website-Hosting.html
If you have been using a web.me.com domain name, you need to register a new one. Most hosting services give you at least one free and registering with your hosting company will make forwarding and managing it a lot easier.
Make sure you add the new name to Google and create, upload and enter a new sitemap.xml...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Search-Engine-Optimization/SEO.html
If you have inbound links on other sites...

... remember to inform the webmasters of you new URL.

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites?

I have created a Muse site for a client that wishes to host with Business Catalyst. How do I publish the site with their account rather than using one of my free sites? This is so I can keep my free ones for personal projects but also so they can pay for their own hosting. I am happy to set it all up for them but not sure what to do.

Hi
You can use their BC login details and use them , which on publish the site will be under their account.
Please change the BC login from Edit > Preferences > Publish > Switch Accounts , for Mac it would Adobe Muse > Preferences
