Unable to Edit in Business Catalyst

i have full admin privileges but seem to be unable to edit using the "Edit" tab. nothing happens when i click the tab. Tried using both IE 11 and Chrome. i have been able to do this in the past, but have not tried in a few months.
i am not an IT specialist. How can i contact a live person to help?

Hi,
If still having troubles with the editor I would recommend seeking additional help via BC direct support so they can look into your set-up and attempt to replicate your concerns.

Muse and "In Context Editing" in Business Catalyst

Since they updated the ICE feature in Business Catalyst, the sites I create in Muse do not seem to have the same ICE editability that they used to. I can edit the text, delete and add text in the edit popup. But the small tool bar that used to (below the "Edit Content" title) allow you to edit links, fonts/weights, indents etc. has disappeared. Am I missing something? Have I missed a step? Please advise any help would be appreciated.

Hi Abhishek,
I believe Lawrence is looking for editing features in ICE that are only available in the BC sites. If sites are created in BC even with the new Ice editor you still have access to basic formating of text etc.
Here is a screen shot from a site I just recently went live with. These features are available in a site started in BC but not ones started within Muse.

Unable to login to Business Catalyst

I have followed Terry White's instructions on using MUSE to create a sample web page and upload that to the Creative Cloud business catalyst website. (https://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/tutorials/video/publish-lightroom-web-galleries-cre ative.html) That all worked, but I am unable to upload a lightroom gallery using his instructions.
I get FTP Transfer Failed with message 'an unknown error occurred'.
I can manually upload the files using FileZilla client so I know I can SFTP to the site with my credentials as well as login to the manager console and perform updates through MUSE.
I AM using the format of jenglephoto.businesscatalyst.com for server & jenglephoto.businesscatalyst.com/[email protected] and my Adobe/Business catalyst password, SFTP & port 22 (same settings as FileZilla).
Thanks for any assistance. Anyone have this working through Lightroom 5 (64-bit Windows 7)?
JenglePHOTO

I am having the exact same problem after watching the exact same video from Terry White. AND I can also SFTP using Filezilla. I haven't tried to perform updates through MUSE, but the point is Lightroom doesn't work as propoted.
I am currently waiting for a "live chat" to start, been waiting an hour or so..... If I find an answer, I'll post it.
Apparently no one from Adobe watches these forums.

Can i enable in-browser editing without business catalyst

I've just downloaded the trial version but haven't used it yet. I have been watching adobe tutorials all day on Adobe Muse and so far it has everything I am looking for.
I have one question, however, I am currently designing a website for a customer who would like to have in-browser editing made available in order to update text and photo. I work for a company who has their own IT gurus who will be hosting the website. Is it possible to enable in-browser editing without using Business catalyst or having the site hosted by adobe? If not is this a feature that will possibly be added to Muse in the very near future?

Hello
At this stage, in-browser editing is available only for the sites that are hosted on Business catalyst.
This feature to work for other hosting providers may be added to Muse in upcoming releases.
You can join our pre-release program to know more about the upcoming releases - Adobe Muse Private Beta Program

Credentials for In-Browser Editing in Business-Catalyst

Hi!
IN-BROWSER-EDITING is a really cool service, but it seems there’s one quite critical point to this.
Sharing the test-site means for me, communicating the url to someone, so he can have a look at the actual site via, e. g.: myproject.businesscatalyst.com/ or even on my own server, e. g. www.myproject.com/ with no further interaction possibility.
But I’d like to open the gate for the client to edit texts by himself, as shown in Dani Beaumont’s video “Katie’s Café” / www.katiesbakerycafe.com. Here’s the clip :
https://helpx.adobe.com/muse/how-to/site-owners-edit-live-sites.html
And here another clip relative to the same topic:
https://helpx.adobe.com/muse/how-to/muse-in-browser-site-editing.html
Now, if I host the site on my own server, things are quite clear: I’ll set up a separated ftp access for my client.
But if I host the site on Business Catalyst, things don’t look so clear anymore.
Katie would like to edit Details like her daily specials and things like photos of her bakery items. Therefor, so she needs to log-into the site administration. I was chatting with the MUSE-Support this morning and they suggested I should share my credentials to the client (Katie) so she can log-into the project and edit things online. Hmm…
But I don’t think Dani Beaumont, like me, would like to share her Adobe-Product-Manager’s credentials with Katie. Would she?
Support: Yes, you can share the url but for editing you have to share the credentials
Me: And Tom’s Sandwich over the road wouldn’t like Katie to have access to his projects-files Dani is also working on.
I can’t really believe Adobe is suggesting us to share our own credentials, i. e. working with and even producing such a massive security issue in Creative Cloud. I hope not. Well, actually I think I missed something. Or didn’t I?
Any hints would be much appreciated!

Hi,
Rather than sharing your credentials, you'll want to add "Katie" as a user of the Business Catalyst site. There is a direct link to "Add In-Browser Editing Users" in the dialog that shows up after Publish completes.
The same page can be accessed by selecting the File > Manage Business Catalyst Site menu in Muse, and then (in the Business Catalyst page that opens in the browser) selecting Site Settings > Admin Users.

Unable to connect to Business Catalyst when publishing

Hello,
I'm trying to publish my site to a temporay site for sign off by my client. But when I click on publish all I get is a spinning wheel and a progress message saying ' Signing into Business Catalyst' I have already logged in accepted the new terms and conditions.
Any ideas?

Sounds like you are using Dreamweaver and are connecting with plain FTP.
Go into the server setting (Found in the manage sites dialog) and set the 'Connect Using' to SFTP

Designing in Muse & Editing within Business Catalyst

Hi everyone,
Apologies upfront for the newbie question however I've struggled to find a topic which fully describes the relationship between BC and Adobe Muse. I've created site in Muse and happy with the look of the website, I've just realised that when published into BC I'm given some tight limitations, i.e. I can't create pages or modules in the BC admin...the options just aren't there, I can see the web forms I've created however. Am I right in thinking you are not allowed to fully edit the content? Adobe want you to make updates within Muse and then upload the site each time. However, when you want to get Forms, Customer Logins and more advanced functionality working I'm going to need to make specific changes inside BC and within the markup, i.e. which means 'enabling editing options'.
Therefore, does this mean you should design sites in Muse, pull them into BC and work on them purely from BC? I cannot see how you can maintain a link between Muse and BC because Muse is a piece of design software and BC is a CMS.... they do different things.
The issue is, I setup a range of forms, a secure login area, develop more content in BC and then I want to make a significant design change which means going back into Muse and it overwriting everything which has just been setup... is there something I'm missing or is this how it works?
I'd appreciate any help on this topic,
Many thanks,
Sam

Thank you!
You Rock!!
in one answer.... you...... solved it all...!!

that just turn out to be more questions...... [k]

How do I make it so my client can edit Links in business catalyst when they create new pages?

Okay so essentially I have built a site in Muse uploaded to business catalyst and I've setup a site template so that the client can create new pages as each new course arrives, but how do I get the link from the homepage to link to the new page? basically I need the link to be editable.
What would be ideal is a kind of portfolio layout where there is a thumbnail and a new page but for my client to be able to add a new project adn it would create a thumbnail on the homepage and a new page that he can edit. Does anyone know of something like that possible in Business catalyst?

Hi
Editing with Business Catalyst only works with image or text editing , we cannot add new page or page items using in browser editing.
However, you can manage the site from BC end when your client and login to admin and add pages, modify etc, but if you re-publish the site from Muse then then changes will be overwritten.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Making an adobe muse hosted by adobe business catalyst editable by your cliennt

Can somebody direct me to easy step by step instructions on how to make their web site editable for their use. Adobe business catalyst is the host to the site.

Many thanks in advance- David Claghorn

Is there away of converting elements in muse to modules in Business catalyst?

When I publish my site in Business Catalyst the code is very messy. I want my menus to become dynamic menus, and to be able to convert elements to modules so clients are able to easily edit them. Currently the site comes accross very messy and is difficult to edit in Business catalyst. Is there something I am doing wrong?

Hi
You can try to group the objects and then apply scroll on all, else try to insert tooltip inside any other composition and then apply scroll to that composition.
Please let me know if I am missing something here.
Thanks,
Sanjit

Business Catalyst Question

Hello. I am very new to making websites and I was asked to make one for a charity. They sell items to raise money for their cause. Anyway, I signed up to use the Business Catalyst and I know what I want to do. How to I use these templates? I see a box that says "hover over what you want to edit and click", but I can't edit anything. For example, changing the text on the template. Can I even do that? Is that what these templates are for? Is there a link to a more in depth tutorial that I am not finding? The ones on here don't answer my questions.

Hi leeee,

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?
