Thread: publish webpages

Hi,
When I publish webpages, they look nothing like in BV.
I've watched the tutorials and everything looks right.
My links is not working and I do not know why.

Please check for me

Thanx

Hello Bloemfontein,

You've lost me as to different look from BV to actual published pages
Regarding the links:
The actual link looks alright http://www.kids4themes.com/themes.html so please check that you have saved the page in BV as themes and republish the pages (same for various link pages).
Couple of additional comments:

• Shopping Cart spelling
• Consider centre aligning pages (right click blank area on page>page properties>centre in browser)
• You've somehow swapped the T-shirt banner "button" or present header with your 5th nav button (check nav bar style)

Cheers,

If you open www.kids4themes.com it has a banner on top that says T-shirts. This is wrong. It should say Kids4Themes as in BV.

Only the products link is working. It is no different from the other links.
If you look at products you will see that the banner and buttons are different from the home page. No idea why, since the all look the same in BV.

I have renamed and resaved all the pages with no luck.

I can see a very small version of your Kids4Themes header in the 5th (from top) nav button, I don't understand why they have swapped. I started playing with a header:



Cheers,

Very funky header you have there! Hopefully I will have photos up by next week. Can I send you my BV pages to look at. Maybe you will see something I've missed.

By the way it is Welkom - not Bloemfontein

Yes you are welkom (LOL) My contact details are on www.froggdesigns.com contact page.

Cheers,

Hi, you seem to have an ip of 74.86.118.18 & I don’t think this is a VH server. For BV to fully work you need a Vodahost account & publish to a VH server.

It is a VH acoount and a VH server

Hi, I couldn’t see the ip listing that I was getting for your site. But there maybe some updates that I haven’t got on my machine yet.. It was just the problems you were having related to this type of thing & I thought this may be part of the problem. Out of curiosity? Is that your correct ip address on the above post?.

Good luck.

74.86.118.18 is the correct IP.

I am so frustrated, I don't know how to make it work!

Hi Melinda,

No answer from email. I put a basic template together, you seem to enjoy the colour orange so I used it in the template. http://www.froggdesigns.com/new_kids_template.html
If you like it its yours.

Cheers,

If you didn't receive the email let me know, but your link problem is due to saving files with a cap (eg Bookings should be bookings)etc

Cheers,

Thank you so much, it is very nice!
Orange = Cheetah country = another currie cup win...

Thought I had the caps sorted.

hi sir what is ip server and how can i find my ip

Good Morning to the "cats" fan,

• "www.kidswthemes.com/bookings.html" the bookings link has a "w" in it.
• "www.kids4themes.com/shopping_cart" link needs .html at the end.

Just before publishing a page in BV have a look at: tools>verify links>verify links this will give you an indication of any dead links as per above.

If you would like to open the "orange" template in BV: you can insert the url into: file>new page>from existing HTML page>file name: "www.frogg ..." >click (remote on the internet)

Cheers,

I have fixed the bookings and shopping_cart links.
When I verify the links, I get a couple of dead ones.

When I save the pages in lower case they overwrite the origional ones, seems as if there is a problem.

I will rename them different, delete the origional ones and name them again.

Hope it helps.

I will try to save the orange template now.

Hi Melinda,

Yes as you republish pages they overwrite the previous version. (as you add or update content on a page it replaces previous version, otherwise we would have hundreds of similar copies of our pages on the internet and your ftp file manager would be a mess LOL)

Cheers,

Remember that when using the 'varify links' tool and you receive a fault, it is generally for these two reasons:

• You haven't published a file with that name "yet".
• The links file name has a typo

Cheers,

I am busy with the renaming, delete, back to origional name thing.
It is working. Can not understand why the capitals don't want to be replaced by lower case letters.

I have saved the orange template. I am busy to "copy" my other pages into it.

You just make it look so easy.

No comment yet regarding the top picture, will I be able to get one I can use for thumbnails with different pictures?

Hi Melinda,

Please refresh your webpage (open www.kids4... and push Ctrl F5) as I have been seeing your header fine since yesterday (LOL)

Cheers,

Your links in all of your nav buttons (eg "http://www.kids4themes.com/contact_us.html") must match the name by which you save that specific page contact_us 100%. Now if you publish that page it will overwrite any previous page. Remembering to republish your index page (if changes made) and contact_us page.

Cheers,

This is just not happening. I have renames my old pages, used your template, gave it the origional page names, with no luck.

When I publish the pages it says "successfully published", but it still have the origional wepbage on the web. No luck with F5.

Seems as if Ctrl F5 helped!
