Using iWeb for 2 different sites...

Hello all~
I am tinkering around with iweb today. Just updated my .mac site and am considering creating a site as I have personal webspace provided through my ISP.
My problem is... I can't figure out how to create 2 totally different websites with iweb. Each time I try, both sets of info goes to one site or the other.
Any suggestions???

This is what I've experienced...
When you choose "Publish to a Folder" it asks you for a URL. This means that only one of your sites can have an RSS feed, to my understanding.
I actually have 5 sites, but only one that I know will have a working RSS feed.
When you publish, it does a good job of separating the files by site name.
If you publish to a folder on your ddesktops called "Websites" it will look like this:
Websites> (will contain a index.html which references the one you typed in) and Two folders:
Site 1 Folder> (will contain another index.html file and the rest of the sites html pages and page files).
Site 2 Folder> (will contain another index.html file and the rest of the sites html pages and page files).
So it can be done, but only the site whose name you type in when you publish will have the RSS feed capabilities.
Hope this helps.

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.

Can I use a domain for one site and mobile me for a different site?

Can I use a domain for one site and mobile me for a different site?
I have two sites, I would like to have up and I would like to do one through a domain and one through mobileme is this possible?

Yes you can. You can use the CNAME method of forwarding for the first site (the top site in iWeb) and use the MMe URL for your account for the other site: http://web.me.com/YourAccount_Name/SiteName/

Can I use Iweb for a domain outside MAC?

Just curious of I can use Iweb to publish a site of my own, not for a .mac account that is held through a go daddy or something like that?

The issue is that when you go to the site, the web address shows www.modnostalgia.com/www.modnostalgia.com/default.html.
That is exactly what is supposed to appear in the address bar. The url you give to customers is still
www.modnostalgia.com
I tried copying the files from the www.modnostalgia.com folder directly into my public_html folder, but then I have issues because it wants to overwrite the index.html file. What do I do?
Let it overwrite the index.html file. A different index.html is required if you want that to work. But truncating the structure produced by iWeb that way will make any RSS Subscribe buttons non-functioning, should you choose to have these at some point.

How to use IWEB for multiple websites?

Okay.
I have two websites. One on a 3rd party, one on .MAC.
Computer 1 = .MAC website
Computer 2= 3rd party website
I want to use computer 2 to edit my .MAC website and moved the DOMAIN file but haven't open it in iWEB on the second computer as I need to know how to open and not destroy the 3rd party website.
How is this done?
Thanks.

You can rename the domain file to something descriptive of the site and open them manually. But I find it much safer to use iWebSites for managing multiple sites, over 25. I use iWebSites to manage 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.
This lets me edit several sites and only republish the one I want.

This workflow cannot be imported because it was created in SharePoint Designer for a different Site

Hello everyone. I am getting this error when attempting to move minor workflow changes from mirror SharePoint development / production environments and hoping someone can help me.
"This workflow cannot be imported because it was created in SharePoint Designer for a different site, or the original workflow has been moved or deleted. To move a workflow between sites, use Save as Template (.wsp file) instead of a Visio workflow
drawing."
So basically I have taken an image of our single SharePoint server, Domain Controller, and a client and restored them to an OFFLINE development environment for the testing of workflow changes prior to production. I've put quite a bit of time into one
particularly and would like to export/import rather than re-created from scratch.
I've successfully created the form template and imported. This created the necessary list items nicely and the form appears to work as expected. However, when attempting to import the .VWI file exported from dev SharePoint, I am getting the above
error. If I change the .VWI to .zip and remove the "workflow.xoml.wfconfig.xml" file, then re-zip and change the file extension back to .VWI I get a dialog that allows me to import, but I have to choose a new name and much of the related content
is lost. I need to be able to overwrite/merge the existing workflow with the import. Any suggestions?
One strange thing I ran into was during a test of an export/import from and to the exact same environment. If I simply export to .VWI, then import from .VWI with no changes, SAME everything I still get this error. Very weird. Hoping someone can shed some
light on the subject. Thank you.

Exchange server 2010 redundancy using static IPs in different sites

Dear All;
We are facing a problem in Exchange server 2010 which is that we need to provide redundancy for two different sites which contain the same exchange databases using DAG but the issue is that if the main exchange server fails, users from the internet will
not be able to access the server because the main static IP is in the main site ...
========================================
My question is how to provide redundancy using two Global IPs in two different sites, and is there any consequences of doing such a setup?
========================================

Hi,
From your description, I would like to clarify the following things:
1. It is recommended to configure the IP Configuration for both the MAPI and Replication NIC on DAG nodes.
2. A site failure is managed differently from the types of failures that can cause a server or database failover. A site failure is considered to be a disaster recovery event, recovery should be manually performed and completed for the client service to
be restored and for the outage to end.
For more information, here is an article for your reference.

Besides, what do you mean by "global IPs"?
Hope it helps.

Sharepoint Cross-Site Content Rollup using Sharepoint Designer with Different Sites deployed in different ports

Hi
In Sharepoint Designer Cross Site Content Rollup is achieved using SOAP service in different site collections in Same domain (Same Port where site is deployed). Please provide the information that different sites in different
ports.
For Eg: Site A in one port (1000) and Site B in Another Port(2000). I want to access it from site A SP List in Site B using Sharepoint designer.

HI Krupesh,
You can call the web service or REST API to update the item in List B and List C in workflow.
Below mentioned links help in calling web service activity in workflow:

Can I use iWeb for my own domain without .mac

I want to use iWeb for creating a simple website. But how can I upload this website to my own domain? Do I need another program. I myself use Dreamweaver. Can I copy the website made in iWeb to dreamweaver? Or... Who can help me out!!!!
margriet

You publish to a folder and use an ftp program like Cyberduck, Fetch, or Transmit to upload. I recommend you not use Dreamweaver. Some tips:

Using iWeb for a persoanl web site.

Hi everyone
I have used iWeb to create a web site to upload to my .mac account before and its really easy.
Now my question is, can I create a web site with iWeb but upload it to a web site of my own on a third party web hosting company?
if yes, can you also explain how to do it?
Thanks a lot
Bob

Yes, you can. First, you probably want this 3rd party hosted site to be separate from your original site. This might entail making a separate Domain file for iWeb to keep the sites separate. Another way to do this would be to create a separate system login account with its own instance of iWeb and separate Domain file. Again, this is a way of keeping the sites in different Domain files so that you can publish both sites independently and to different places. If, instead, you are basically starting over and don't mind erasing your previous website then you can disregard this.
Assuming that you have the particulars of preparing your separate site worked out (as above), then all you have to do is to design your separate site and then in iWeb choose "Publish to Folder". This will place all the files needed for this website in a folder on your desktop. Then you will need to get ahold of an FTP program of your choosing (Fetch and CyberDuck are two that are mentioned all the time). You will also need to figure out exactly where you 3rd party webserver wants you to upload files. You will use the FTP program to navigate to the desired web server directory and then upload the site folder that iWeb made into that directory. That's it!

Using iWeb for non dot-mac sites

Hi all,
I own a number of domains that I'd like to use iWeb on. Am I able to utilize iWeb for a non .mac domain, or do I need to use something like Dreamweaver?
Many thanks.
-Hugh

No, in fact I have a sneaky suspicion that not using dot-mac sites will eliminate a lot of problems other people have. You will also lose some of the effects like the nicer slideshow etc.
I have never used dot-mac and never encountered any of the uploading/publishing problems that are so often mentioned on this forum.
Here is what you do:
After editing your website you choose :Publish to a folder.
This lets you choose a location on your hardrive into which all the necessary files will be compiled/rendered. In this folder you will find an htlm file plus a folder with the necessary files for easch of your pages.. This publishing is done lightning fasy pecause it is done locallly and not trhough your internetconnection like when you published to dot-mac. Also post-editing is easy and hassle free.
For editing and uploading my website I use "Transmit" but there are lots of other applications like "Fetch"
What to upload?
Well I believe the jury is still out on this.
I just upload the contents of the published folder and that works for me. Other publish the whole folder plus the dummy "Index file" that is generated outside that folder. You will heve to find out for your self.
If any changes or editing has to be done afterwards, I republish and then just upload the altered files.
There is one more thing I do, and I believe others don't. I keep my domain file in the same folder where I keep the Published folder.
E.g. there is a festival website, so I have a folder "Festival" in which I keep the domains file, and the published "Festival website" folder.
This way it is easy to keep various different websites.
When you want to edit one of them, go to that folder and double click the domains file, this will start iWeb with the right website for you to edit.
Really very easy.

PLEASE HELP!! I've used iWeb to create multiple sites, all published to third party servers. The very last site I made changes to is showing up in any domain file I open - despite their different names and locations on my iMac. I just switched to Lion.

Please HELP!! I just switched to Lion. I have created multiple websites using iWeb 3.0.4 and despite my having saved their 'domain' files in various locations and using different filenames, upon opening the domain files I keep getting the very last site I published. All the sites were published to third party servers. The domain files (still have a preview that look correct and have different file sizes) but keep going back to the last site published. HELP ME PLEASE!! Are the old files still available?!!

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.
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.

Using iWeb on a different Mac for the same website?

I designed, published and am regularly updating a site using iWeb on my iMac at home. A friend is going to help me with the design, and he will be doing the work from his Mac at home.
How do I do this? Is there a particular folder I need to give him that has the files that iweb uses to publish the site? And once his work is done, do I transfer the new files back to my iMac?
thanks!

Is there a particular folder I need to give him that has the files that iweb uses to publish the site?
It's ~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/, where ~ is the item in the Finder's sidebar with the house icon.
And once his work is done, do I transfer the new files back to my iMac?
Yes. A Domain package can be opened in iWeb regardless of its location by double-clicking it in the Finder.

Using iWeb to create a site for another .Mac family pack user

I started a new site in iWeb for our son today, but I can't see how to upload it so it resides in his part of the family account we have on .mac.
Is this possible?
If not, if I publish his pages how does it interact with our main family site that is currently uploaded.

But with two sites in iWeb now, what will end up on my son's part of the site when I hit publish? Should I try to keep changes to just one site or the other and do the user ID switch, or will it try to post all the pages to each account?

Using iweb for school website

Hi
This may have been answered before but I cant find it in the discussion. I want to set up a website for a very small school (24 students)using iweb. Do I have to use Apple for the ISP and if so is it the same rate as for a private individual?
Anyone out there done the same thing? I have been using the moogle style and they are unbelievably complicated for someone like me! Iweb seems to solve those tech problems and I would love to use it.
Thanks

It is extremely easy to produce a site like this within iWeb. Just start with a white template so that you can design is yourself as they have done.
To get the colours, what they have done and you can do is create a text box and then use either colour fill or gradient fill to achieve the contrast in colours. They have then placed photos and their logos over this. You could even achieve the same effect with a shape too with a rounded or a square edge that is colour or gradient filled.
For the navigation bars, all you need do is to go to the Inspector and hide the page template nav bar and create your own as they have done. They have probably created theirs by using either shapes or text boxes that are again colour/gradient filled. You can then enhance the look by using picture frames to make them stand out more. Don't forget to hyperlink them though. The other nav bar is just done using different text styles and colours.
It is really as simple as that and to make it even more effective you can change the colour of the page background and also the browser background for even more effect. Just open Inspector and go to Page Layout where all these changes can be made.
