Thread: Index of

I published my page as tutorial suggested but when I go to my site it shows "index of" and shows files

Did you save your home page as index Do not add anything else and use only lower case letters. I will check back and see how you made out.

I went to ftp manager and accidentally deleted my files. Can I get them back or do I need to start over?

Just republish them, remember to save them as instructed above.
Also give us your web site address so that we can help you more fully.

yes I saved as index
tdfantasyleagues.com

I see you have two pages named "Index" , one is "Index-bvp" and the other is "Index" They are the same page, or so it looks. You need your home page (landing page) to be saved as index
You have Index with a capital "I" also you do not add the bvp tag, your builder adds that when it saves to your computer but when you publish it will change to either a html or php depending on you page properties.

Got it!
Thanks for your help.

Nice looking page. I have to scroll right/left with a 19" screen @1024x768

Thanks! First time/ first website and muddling through it pretty well at times.
Another question.
I made a 2nd page - saved as "leagues" - linked it from home (index) page to new page using http://www.tdfantasyleagues.com/leagues.html as suggested in tutorial and it is not working.
I loaded both pages.
Any idea what I am doing wrong??

Did you save the page as leagues or Leagues? It makes a difference, a good habit is to save all pages in lower case with no spaces if more than one word. Use undrescores for that.

lower case all the way around

Try to "save as" your page again to make sure that you didn't leave a letter out, or in the wrong place and republish when you know its correct, there has to be a mistake some where in the file path. You could also check your file manager in the control panel to check it there.

You published your "leagues" page as (leagues.php)

Please help.

I don't know if you are responding to me or not, but I'm not guess about your "leagues" page. It has been published as:
http://www.tdfantasyleagues.com/leagues.php
You just need to open that page in BV and go into page properties and select "publish as (html). Then save it on your computer then republish it.

"I see" said the blind man.
thank you very much!

No problem. Glad I could help!

hi, i just started publishing my pages and i had the same problem (Index of and then a list of files) i deleted the files by using file manager in my CP. then i tried to republish the index page (i named/saved it as index using lowercase, and adding nothing) but it is still just shown as a file...help?

I see your home page just fine. You apparently fixed your problem. If you still don't see it; you may be seeing a "cached" view. You will need to press F5 several time to "refresh" the browser.

oh okay thanks alot, right before i posted my above message i tried publishing a new index page. then i checked it out and i was still getting the Index of / message. apparently there was a load time for the new index page to register?

You might consider selecting more visible colors for your linked words. Some of them are really hard to see!
