  • Need help understanding about the linking the pages together

    Hi everyone,

    I have been building my website for the last two weeks and I been reading the tutorial area but still dont get it about the linking part. Need someone to educate me, :)

    Keep in mind I have not yet to put my domain name in for publishing part. Also I have not been in my Cpanel as I just kept building my website.

    Remember with linking your pages, that it wont work until you publish your pages. Links to other site will work in testing, but not your own site links.

        For your home page you do not need to add the index.html, for the others they would follow that format you outlined but you do need to add http:// in front of everything, such as

            What your menu bar text says has nothing to do with how you link it. You link to the pages you created, for example your index (home page) was saved as index but you menu bar could say Home, same with your opportunity link the page could be saved as opportunity but the menu bar could say opportunity, or jobs, or careers what ever. The links must reference the page names not the menu title. So if you saved the page as opportunity the link would be http://yoursite.com/opportunity.html

                Name, save and publish your page as index ... nothing else, just index

                Every domain is called to the internet with the first page being named, saved and published as index

                the link to this is your domain name

                for every other page you create you can name it whatever you like .. ifyou name it opportunity you then link to it via http://yourdomain.com/opportunity.html

                        In the email you received it should say your IP address, your login ID and your password. When you go to publish your index page click the publish icon at the top of the builder, find your Server IP using the drop down arrow, enter the user name VH sent you as well as the password. The folder will be public_html and for files select publish all files. Then click publish, if everting is entered correctly it will publish the page. You have to publish each page individually and since you do not have all your pages done you will probably have to update your menu bars (on the pages) as you add the new pages.

                          Yes, you understand me and you will want to apply the same navigation to and from all of your pages one every page ... if your website is still incomplete, perhaps rethink about being in a hurry to publish it.

                          But if you create a navigation menu that lists the pages of all of your website, and apply this menu on every page, that will be your navigation menu .. its what you want ... even if you make the menu now, make a page now that says coming soon for those pages that are incomplete, it will be better than coming to a 404 page cannotbe found page ..

                            okay I tried to load up the website to publish and giving me an error. Is there something else I need to do in the Cpanel area?? as I notice the FTP to load up the file is that correct?
