Publishing pages

selfmanagementstrategies.com

I did get the index page published. I then published two other pages and the indication was that they were published okay. But when I pulled it up neither page is found and the links to the pages are 404 error.

Okay what did I do wrong?

Thanks

This:
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com/about/html
should be:
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com/aboutus.html

Check your other links as well based on the above.

I made the changes but still does not show up. Now what?

davidundalicia · #4 11-13-2008, 11:08 PM

This link is now working OK !!
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com/aboutus.html
Have you published any other pages yet, if so check the spelling etc.

selfmanagementstrategies.com

I have successfully published several pages but I have 3 that will not publish:

corporate issues
personal issues
fees

I have double checked the code and it appears okay to me.

Also I can not link back to the home page. What have I done wrong?

Thanks for helping a newbie....

Link back to your home page like this only:
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com/...strategies.com

Try deleting those other 3 html files from your website(use the bv ftp or file manager in your Cpanel) then republish those 3 pages again.

Note:
Please do not open seperate threads on the same subject.

I went into cpanel and deleted the three pages:
corporate issues
personal issues
fees

and republished them. Still did not publish so I am missing something somewhere.

Also, I am sorry, but I don't understand the advise on linking back to the home page. Where do I use that info?

selfmanagementstrategies.com

Thanks

Use that link In your menu system on the Home button/icon (every page)

Those other 3 links have got me curious, because I could not see anything wrong with them either.

davidundalicia · #9 11-14-2008, 06:49 PM

The link back to your home page has been corrupted above:
USE THIS: http://selfmanagementstrategies.com

dong347 · #10 11-14-2008, 07:37 PM

I have tried the suggested link. Still can not link back to the home page.

I checked all codes again and republished the three missing pages still no luck.

Any other thoughts?

davidundalicia · #11 11-14-2008, 07:41 PM

You need to change your menu buttons................

I still see this:
selfmanagementstrategies.com/selfmanagementstrategies.com

dong347 · #12 11-14-2008, 08:13 PM

Okay, I'll change them but I thought that was what I was to change them to...

What exactly should that home button read?

I'm sorry to need so much help and I thank you for your patience.

dong347 · #13 11-15-2008, 04:47 PM

what does "moved" mean and how do I find it?

In what context are you seeing "moved" ?¿

dong347 · #16 11-15-2008, 08:44 PM

When I pulled up my thread in General Support Issues the far left column read "moved" and all the detail on the right columns had been deleted. Didn't know what that meant or when it was "moved" to.

On my issues: I changed the homed buttom to read:
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com

On the other pages for the home button I have:
http://selfmanagementstrategies.com/...strategies.com

That combination does not work. I still can not go back to the home page from any other page.

Also the three pages that did not originally publish are still not publishing:

Corporate Issues
Personal Issues
Fees

Where do I go from here?

selfmanagementstrategies.com

Thanks

Don .... there is no such thing as a "corrupted link" but you do have to go back and add the "www" to all your links in the Menu buttons so they look like this (the "Home" page link looks like this): www.selfmanagementstrategies.com

And the first page to your website you Saved as and then Published as index correct? (all your web pages must be Named, Saved, and Published using all lower case letter and no spaces if they are to be visible online, and like a book, every website must have one index page as the first page)

So, if you have that index page properly Named/Saved/Published as index the link back to your "home" page is simply www.selfmanagementstrategies.com and nothing else ......

The remainder of your pages must be Named/Saved/Published also with all lower case letters and without spaces (or indicate spaces with a hyphen like-this or an underscore like_this).
If this is done, they will be viewable online, and the links you will use will look similar to the standard format: www.selfmanagementstrategies.com/corporate-issues.html ; www.selfmanagementstrategies.com/personal-issues.html and so on.

There is nothing difficult about it, especially when we have wonderful Video Tutorials on Linking Pages to detail every step!

You need to change every home button on every page to read the same as below:

http://selfmanagementstrategies.com

dong347 · #19 11-20-2008, 05:58 PM

Okay I am even more confused.

One says the home button should be www.selfmanagementstrategies.com

The other say home button should be http://selfmanagementstrategies.com

Which is it??????

Tom Finley · #20 11-20-2008, 06:06 PM

The absolute safest way is to combine both: http://www etc. That way there is no possiblity for confusion when the link looks for your home page.
