Thread: publishing

I have redone a couple of pages after my site has been published...i know you have to republish,but it just keeps comming up the old one?What do i need to do?

You are probably viewing cached pages.

Hit F5 a few times or clear out your temp files.


Andy

I did that and it didnt help,i also renamed the page and deleted the other one ,then published it and the old one is still comming up

Please post a url of the page so we can have a look. Also, please give some explanation as to what you changed so we may look to see if it is showing the change on our end.

I have published a few pages of my new website, and it shows up ok on my computer, but it does now work on other people's websites. Am I doing something wrong?
www.belmontbowlsclub.com

The most common reason is that you published the page to the wrong directory. By your statement, I assume that you have other websites on your account-correct? If yes, then make sure that when you hit publish that you are designating the correct directory (folder).

For only your website it would look like this:
public_html/

But for another site it might be:
public_html/theothersite.com or public_html/theothersite

Hope that makes sense

Andy

Thanks, but I have only one website (belmontbowlsclub.com) and I am publishing it at public_html/.
Do I need to do anything else here?

? What do you mean by this then? What other websites are you refering to?

but it does now work on other people's websites.

Also- you did not explain what changes you did and what I should look for when I bring it up.

Andy

Does it take time (up to 72hrs) to see it on other computers? As I have just joined and published my first page (index page) after only a few hours after getting the welcome email.

I can see your site- so please explain to me what changes you made that aren't showing up and I will see if I can see them.

Andy

Sorry if I don't explain myself properly, but what I meant to say was, that what I published, I can access my site (www.belmontbowlsclub) on my computer, but my friends cannot access this same address on their computers.

Thats a whole different ball game.

1- they need to make sure that they are typing in the name correctly- best way to do it is to send them a link in an email. Make sure you do it correctly also. www.belmontbowlsclub.com

2- If you are publishing new pages or corrections and they are showing up fine when you go to the site- then there is nothing wrong with the way you are publishing.

3- if your friends still cannot access your site given a correct link- tell them to add your website to there "trusted sites" in Internet Explorer.

? Does that sum it up

Andy

Thanks for your time Andy, I will send them the email and see what happens.
Phil

No problem-

Cheers

Andy

The website is working fine now,
Thanks for the advice.
