Moving to BlueVoda support section.

Your files where never saved on your computer as .HTML, By default BlueVoda saves all files with a .bvp extention. When you publish the pages. BlueVoda
dynamically creates .html pages. on the fly.

Every time I try to put something on my page,it does not show up when I check to see what it looks like.How do I get it to show up so I know if it is going to look like before I get it published?

If you are using Blue Voda, simply use the "Preview" feature (top of Blue Voda browser/tool bar -- rollover until label presents..).
IE will start, and give you a look at your page of how it will present when published.

1) Have you watched the tutorials about how to add text and images?
2) What are you trying to add that is not showing up?
3) Please publish the page and we will look at it.

Your computer must have Windows 2000 or better for Blue Voda to work properly. Most of the Preview and logon functions work best (by default) with Internet Explorer.

When you have your Page "open" in Blue Voda, and are working on it, it is not "live" and you will not see the page in dynamics.

To see, to check, and to 'test' your BV created webpage, use PREVIEW. ("Save" your page first...)
It will allow you to see a "mock-live" view of your webpage.

To see it truly LIVE, you must publish it.
To publish it, you must have a VodaHost account.
If you publish it, and need to make corrections, the next time you publish the edited page, it will overwrite the old one, so you do not need to worry about stacking up old pages in your account.

If you need instructions on how to USE BLUE VODA, learn from the video Tutorials : Click Here For Video Tutorials on Using Blue Voda

Slow down. Relax. This is supposed to be fun.

I figured out the problem,but don't know how to fix it.It's when I put a background image in, that's when the texts and other stuff I put in does not show up.How do I fix this problem so I can continue to build my site?

Vasili · #10 08-06-2006, 09:17 AM

Your image is laying "over" the other elements: left-click on the image once, then right-click on it > Properties displays > click on SEND TO BACK

Try that and tell me what you see now.....

Remember, now that you have an image (or any element) under text boxes, you will need to set the text box "backgrounds" to transparancy to see through them...to (right click) Format the text box to 'clear' select "AUTO" as the background...

I have the pic in there,but it scrolls up with everything.I tried to make it transparent to where it stays stationary while everything else scrolls up and down,but when I do,I can't see anything again.What do I do to fix that problem?

Please publish the page and we will look at it.
