Uploading iWeb to different webhosting sites.

I purchased some webhosting space a while back and I was wandering if it's possible to use the publish to folder option and upload the site to another webhost so I could access it with my domain name. -- Thanks! Mike

yes it is possible
just click
file
publish to a folder
and then u can use an FTP such as cyberduck
http://cyberduck.ch/
enter the ftp access code
and publish!

Uploading iweb layout/site to personal domain

I'm using FireFTP through Firefox to upload my site designed on iWeb. However, once uploaded and I visit my site images don't show up, fonts are wrong and some text doesn't show.
I'm getting really frustrated, I've tried the other free FTP's and they don't work either. How do I fix this problem?

Will I just send my whole "site" folder to my public folder at my personal domain?
You send the folder created by iWeb which has the same name as you gave your site inside the iWeb app, plus the index.html file which iWeb created alongside that folder.
How will I update each day?
By publishing again to a folder and uploading again via ftp.
(Can I set up iWeb so that when I click "publish" it will update my personal domain?)
No. If iWeb could do that you would not need an ftp program to start with.
I was planning on using some wordpress plugins to modify my site.
No idea, but generally speaking modifying iWeb to add stuff requires manual editing of the html after publishing and redoing it every time you republish.

Working with iweb and ATT webhosting

I made my business website on iweb and downloaded it through FTP to my att webhosting site because it was simple and easy through iweb's step by step process.
I'm new at website building and don't even understand the lingo when trying to read these blogs for more insight.
I want to build beyond the basics such as adding meta tags and checking my site hits but I'm not sure if I do it through my webhosting account or through iweb.
Anyone know where to go to find help how to work these two programs together?
Apple tech only help with iweb and most of the ATT tech don't know how to work iweb so it's hit or miss when talking to them depending on who answers your call.

To add meta tags to your site you need to do this in your site directly, but your published site so that it is added to the html code.
Download a programme called iWebSEO. Go to iWeb and publish your site to a local folder and then open your published site with iWebSEO and add the tags, Google analytics etc., and anything else you want. Then use either iWebSEO to upload to your server or use a dedicated ftp client such as Cyberduck to do this - it can be downloaded for free from the internet.
You can easily place a hit counter on your site by inserting the code into an html snippet on your site. Do a Google search for hit counters and you will have lots of choices.

Uploaded image colours different to photoshop

Hi, I've never had this experience before, however I started using lightroom 3 and photoshop CS4, and the colour calibration from photoshop to uploading is completely different. The only way past it is I've found to screen dump it, then save it as a png, yet the colours are still very distraughted .
http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs177.snc3/20451_1239212413707_1031169870_305 66108_2408780_n.jpg
image 2 (saved as a high quality jpeg from the TIFF):
http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc3/hs197.snc3/20451_1238513876244_1031169870_305 64537_3460636_n.jpg

Slightly better then the last but the colours are still completely wrong. The colours are fine when I send the picture over by email to someone, the colours are also fine in programs like word, paint and fax viewer (which you would expect to have no colour correction).
For the first image I showed, I combined it together, then I cropped it, saved it as a jpeg, and it still had the distraughted colours, I had to save it in png. I can't directly save it as a png because the colours are still distraugted :/
All browsers I've tried have done it, as on my friends computer. We've tried Firefox, chrome, internet explorer and oprah, ff on linux also.
Photos have been 16 bit modified to 8 bit, however, I've done that plenty of times in the past and its made no difference to the colours. 2nd image is 16 bit png and still weird :/
I've also tried to upload them to about 5 differnet sites, (facebook, devientart, flickr, imageshack & photo.net gallery). Attachments also do not look fine (however attachments for other sites do :/ *is very stumped*
Please help. *note, 1st image was edited in lightroom > cs4 > cs3*
Thank you

Both images are RGB, I think it might be something to do wiht lightroom, since when I import it into lightroom to CS4 save it and then go into CS3. Colour space is RGB, and both pictures have been converted into 8 bit, however, wihtout the conversion, they still have the desaturated colours.
Before I was using Adobe CS3 and the in built RAW photo editor, which has been fine. Ever since I've been using lightroom / CS4 combination (I switched both programs at the exact same time), its been a problem. However some images have a greater effect then others (for black and white you hardly notice).
Would it have something to do with the rendering mode in lightroom? Since I do not have the correct graphics drivers to render in CS4 because my fan doesn't work in my GPU...its holding on till I get a new one, barely...

IWeb 3.0.4 Site Doesn't Work in Mountain Lion

I am running iWeb 3.0.4 on OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion). When I open iWeb and select a site (which uses the black theme), all I see is a blank gray box where the page used to appear. The YouTube videos I put on the page are there, but none of the text and background shows. I went to the Theme menu to try and re-apply the theme, but it is grayed out in the list and nothing changes in the box when I select a different theme.
Is this a permissions issue or something else happening? I have looked for a com.apple.iweb.plist file in my Library > Application Support folder but nothing is there. I really need to access this site to make updates and/or to port it to another software package that is supported.
Any idease are welcome. Thank you for your help.

You were looking the wrong library. The library you want is invisible in Lion and Mt Lion. However the following will let you make it visible again:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
Once it's visible use the app below to select and open the domain file to work on:
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site?

Can I publish my iWeb 2.0.4 site? I designed it, hit "publish" and it went to now-defunct Mobile Me...

I do believe you can publish your website to a folder.
I think (it's been a while since I have used the older version) in the File menu you should have an option to publish site to a folder.
Then you will need to use an FTP application like Cyberduck to upload files to your web host.

In using iWeb to publish my site with FileZilla, I have inadvertently published a subdirectory instead of the root site. Can anyone guide me?

In the site name I put my site: combustionevent.com
And I put in my server address in the ftp settings and correct user name & password
In the website URL I typed in: www.mysitet.com
But when it publishes, it's found at: http://www.mysite.com/www.mysite.com/mysite_Home.html
I can't seem to figure out how to get it out of a subdirectory.
Thanks,

Well, of course you won't be able to because producing the site folder, which is what it is is normal practice for iWeb. Due to the site structure, iWeb will create and publish a site folder.
To get over this you have 2 choices:
1. Change the site name to something shorter and more applicable and upload again and keep the site folder.
2. Publish your site to a local folder from iWeb and then use Cyberduck to upload your site to iWeb, but upload the CONTENTS ONLY of your site folder rather than the whole site folder itself. Your url will then be http://www.domain.com/page_name.html.

IWeb opens but my site won't

I am a Photographer and I use iWeb to publish online contact sheets for my clients. Basically for each job I complete I copy my existing domain.sites file to a new folder rename it add my content publish it to the web and I'm good to go.
Well for the site in question which is a rather large one 56 galleries each with over 40 photos that was nearly complete and I was trying to put the finishing touches on, I click to open it and iWeb opens but the site does not. iWeb is running I can open the inspector window the font window image adjust, and color windows just not the window with my site in it. Hmmmm any ideas anyone??
I can go back and create a new site from a different file and it opens fine. But this one site wont open? I've tried deleting the prefs in the User file, and deleting the Cache from the user file copying the file to another location, opening my backup copy. Also when I opened it to day for the first time I got the iWeb tutorial window.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Michael

Try deleting the prefs again - Home Folder/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iWeb.plist
Restart your Mac and run Disk Utility to repair permissions.
If this doesn't work you need to consider the possibility that the domain file is corrupt.
When you say you are duplicating the domain file to another folder and adding content to that, are you deleting any content from this file as well as adding new?

RE: Podcasts, photocasts uploading to i tunes podcast site

i am pretty new at podcasts
excuse the simple question
i notice that if i type in photography in the podcast site ( itunes) there are results that bring up people's personal
photoshows with music in the background. These are not the top ten listed but nevertheless they are available to subscribe to
i would like to be able to podcast my own movies using thekenburns effect on my photos with my music in the background ( from Garageband). Now my questions:
1. can i do this and upload it to this podcast site so that people could subscribe to it?
2.How do i use my own music ( GB3) my own photos ( iphoto 6) and Imovie to upload the whole production ( i guess thats called a podcast) so that people could subscribe to it?
is iweb simply a podcast that is geared for the web
whereas an uploaded podcast to the podcast directory is just for those who go to the podcast site?
anyone able to straighten this all out for me

"can i do this and upload it to this podcast site so that people could subscribe to it?" - you don't upload it to itunes directly, you upload it to a server and then inform itunes of it's availability. But yes.. you can do that easily in iMovie, export to garageband, publish to .Mac, submit to itunes.
"How do i use my own music ( GB3) my own photos ( iphoto 6) and Imovie to upload the whole production ( i guess thats called a podcast) so that people could subscribe to it?" welllllllll... ok, it's like this.
Create your music in garageband, export it to itunes, open imovie and import your song, use your photos, movies, and music in iMovie to creat your podcast. Export out of imovie to garageband (select the SHARE to IPOD command in the SHARE menu)
when in garageband, add any other voiceover, or other effects, then publish to .Mac and submit to itunes.
Hope this helps, if you need more, email me.

Is there any way to upload iWeb files updates only with a 3rd party ftp program to a new hoster, e.g. Godaddy? I see no posts newer than 2007

Iweb problems publish second site

Hi everyone!
I use IWeb to make my site with no problem. however now I'm doing another site (diferent file and domain) and can't publish the new site). I've tried to erase my the first site from "sites" but cannot publish the other site!
it doesn't respond to the command "publish".
any help?
thank in advance
rita

I delete "Cache.db" in Library/Cache/com.apple.iWeb ; "com.apple.iWeb.plist" in Library/Preferences.
iWeb publishing don't change.
With Time Machine, I restaure an older version of Domain all in "blue". When I want publish one modification, all the sites turn red.
I chat with french MobileMe support. They say it's a iWeb issue.
I delete iWeb. I install it and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I re-install Mac OS Snow Leopard and upload the last version. iWeb publishing don't change.
I use iWeb since the first version, and I like it. I have many published pages.
No news from MobileMe. Distressing situation, isn't it ?

IWeb won't Publish site when Podcast is added

I have two seperate sites on my iWeb account. I've tried publishing the first site with the new podcast I created. It worked fine. Then I tried publishing the second site with the podcast. EVERY time I get an error message that says it was unable to publish. I've gone as far as to export the GB3 podcast as a mono cast instead of a full quality movie. The size is about 15 MB. WHAT CAN I DO!?!
Is there a way to publish a podcast without using iWeb?
Why won't iWeb publish my podcast??
Thanks

Irish....
there are two possible solutions to fix this problem if I understand your problem correctly. you have two sites, with podcasts on both that you want published at the ITMS.
First... in the SITE ORGANIZER in iWeb. Drag the site you want published to the TOP of the SITE ORGANIZER WINDOW. You say you have two sites, iWeb treats the one at top as the master and publishes that one. I'm guessing that the one you want to publish, and are unable to, is in the lower position.
If you are submitting this new site to the ITMS for the first time, then choose the FILE MENU, then SUBMIT PODCAST TO ITUNES command. Follow the instructions like you did before and you should be good to go.
If you are submitting a new EPISODE OF AN EXISTING PODCAST (think second podcast episode, or new chapter in a book) then you take care of it this way. This is a post I gave to someone in the podcasting forum to help them with a second podcast they were trying to submit to itunes.
Publish your site to .Mac (or your server if it's different)... then PING itunes to let them know to go look for new content on your server (or .Mac). You PING iTunes by cutting and pasting the url addy below into safari and clicking return. You'll get an error message, don't worry, it's supposed to happen. About an hour later, maybe a bit longer, your new episode will be available.
DONT submit your podcast by selecting the "SUBMIT PODCAST TO ITUNES" menu selection again. That command is for your first submission, not your subsequent ones. Think of your podcast as a book. And each episode is a chapter. When you ping iTunes, they go get the whereabouts of the new chapter and make it available for the world to come and read, hear, or watch.
the PING url is...
https://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZFinance.woa/wa/pingPodcast?id=INSERTYOURFE EDIDHERE
Your feed ID number is in your original email from the itunes folks when they sent you your acceptance email and said that your podcast was now up and running on the ITMS.
Hope this helps.

Is there a way to only upload iWeb changes? I am not using MobileMe.

Is there a way to only upload iWeb changes? I am not using MobileMe.

One method you can use, along with optimizing your website for increased loading efficiency in browsers, is to publsh to a folder on your hard drive and use Web Site Maestro to optimize and upload only the new or modified files with its Smart Handling feature.
If you publish to a folder you can use the synchronizing feature of Cyberduck, help/en/howto/sync – Cyberduck, to upload only those new or changed files.

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Is it necessary to add? If so, how do I add H Tags to iweb.

I am running 10.6.8 and using iweb for my web site. After several SEO analysis they all indicate I need H1-6 header tags. After looking at the source code I see there are none in iweb. Are they necessary to add? Why would one add these tags and how do I add H Tags to iweb? And are there examples to look at? I am slowly learning about simple web design and assumed that iweb was stand alone without having to write code. Is this one of the reasons iweb is no longer supported? Thanks for looking at this!

A simple text page like this:
Heading
    sub heading
          text paragraph ....
Is traditionally represented by html tags like:
<h1>Heading</h1>
     <h2>sub heading</h2>
          <p>text paragraph ... </p>
I would guess that the use of h1-h6 tags helps search engines to understand the structure of a page as the tags imply a certain structure.
This can be compared to more generic tags like <div> that could represent any kind of content - and may be what iWeb uses (you'll have to check yourself).
I would generally recommend that you use some kind of up to date blog/site building tool, perhaps Wordpress or Squarespace (I haven't used either one myself) that support current web technologies - this should reduce your SEO issues and make it easier to properly support mobile/tablet users.

How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site

How do I convert a word document into a pdf and then upload it to a web site so people can read it from my
site with Dreamweaver 4?. How can I do this? Can anyone please help? I'm only a newbie. Thanking you in anticipation.

First you need to install a means of printing to pdf from word. I like cutepdf writer ( http://cutepdf.com/Products/CutePDF/writer.asp ). Once installed you will print the doc in word and under the printer selection you choose pdf.
Once you have the file you put it in your local site folders and upload it using Dreamweaver. Be sure to link to it from a page so users can get to it and I would recommend giving the link a target of _black so it will open in a new window (see the properties inspector in DW).
