How do i create a subpage

rjayabad · #1 02-15-2007, 10:40 PM

My domain is www.esfclan.org.

I was able to make an index page that worked. I can't seem to figure out how to make the sub pages.

Could you please help me?

Do you have to save it, name it, or publish it a different way?

Thank You

You would "Save As" whatever you wanted to name it.
i.e.,,,,, "about" no quote marks
members
contact
challenges
You would then publish them to your public_html file
A linked button (members) would have the URL.... http://www.esfclan.org/members.html
You must add the .html to all links for them to work. (except for the index page)
When saving the pages do not add the .html to the page name. BV will do that automatically.

ya like on each page you make the buttons and just link them to other pages.
Home link would be /index.html
News link would be /news.html w/e u save the page as it should be that .html

Home link just needs to be www.whatever.com no html is needed for the index page.

I did those steps exactly yet I still get this instead of the desired subpage when I click the link:

"
Not Found

The requested URL /about.html was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request."

Did you publish the sub pages?

He linked them wrong. Look at the example - /about.html. He didn't add the domain name to the front of the link.

I read an article that mentioned when making internal links that the pages actually load faster if you make the link like so:
about.html
I tried that but BV automatically adds the rest of the URL when publishing.
If he had not put the " / " infront of the " about " it may have worked.

everything seemed to work just fine until i tried making a subpage within a sub page. All the links should be done properly because i followed the tutorial step by step and i still get the page was not found message. On the members page in my site (www.esfclan.org/members.html) im trying to get the bio pages of each member up and running. This is the last thing i need to do for the site and its quite frustrating. Can someone PLEASE help me i dont know what im doing wrong. According to what everyon tells me and what the tutorial tells me it should be working

You may think that this is a page within a page but in reality it is just another page. (unless it is an I frame and I dont think it is)
You need to link to the page you made for crimsOnshadow.
Unless the page is named members_crims0nxshadow.html you are linking incorrectly.
The link should be (i.e.) http://www.esfclan.org/crims0nxshadow.html
Leave out the reference to "members"
What is the page name for crims0nxshadow?
If the page name is members_crims0nxshadow have you published this page yet?

rjayabad · #13 02-21-2007, 02:13 AM

Yes I have published members_crims0nxshadow, and in my members page i have linked it to I have linked it to http://www.esfclan.org/members_crims0nxshadow.html

CarbonTerry · #14 02-21-2007, 05:37 AM

This may be redundant but stay with me.
A page name and a page title are 2 different animals.
You have published to your IP# and public_html (nothing following html)
as: members_crims0nxshadow
and not as: crims0nxshadow ???
Blue Voda adds the .html when it is published

rjayabad · #15 02-21-2007, 05:43 AM

i dont understand was that a question? haha. I published it under members_crims0nxshadow

CarbonTerry · #16 02-25-2007, 06:50 AM

Would you care to email the BV pages to me in order for me to check them?
