I have managed to remove my page navigations from the front page.  I have looked at page manager but can't find any way of getting them back.  Please help - first time website building!  Thanks.

New blog stuff ready yet?

Several months ago in response to a question I had you said that you were going to be going with a new blog format 'thingy'. Have you all worked the kinks out of that yet or are we still going with the same format?

Thanks!

Automatic Image Compression
Mood:  don't ask
Topic: Image Questions

I noticed when I upload images to my media folder for the SiteBuilder that it recompresses them. Unfortuneatly it does a horrible job and compresses them very heavily. Is there anyway to upload images for use in my media folder and NOT have them re-compressed by Angelfire?

I tried ftp'ing the images direct into the  folder but they would not show up in my media folder...

Now Playing: Quickly switch between multiple /index.html pages
Topic: HTML Questions

I would like my home page to be different based on my location. (blue theme for at home, Red theme while traveling for work etc. etc.)

I have made separate index.html pages and can upload to my webshell each time.

 

 But that is very tedious and slow.

 

Is there an easy way to get angelfire to swap index.htm files?  Maybe  .php ,  email index.html  , create several directories with index files and redirect from homepage  ,  or ??

 

Thanks for your help

Noting on Account Page
Topic: FrontPage

I suddenly started getting the dread message that "the server has sent a message that FrontPage cannnot parse" or thereabouts.  I wanted to check to see if for some reason my FrontPage extensions had been deselected, but when I sign on there is noting on my account page.  Anyone have any idea why this has occurred?

Now Playing: creating 404 page
Topic: HTML Questions

I've followed the directions below...but my own 404 page doesn't work...hints, please ??

 

Creating a customized 404 Error Page ("File Not Found") is a convenient way to redirect visitors who attempt to view a page on your site that does not exist or has been moved.

To make your own 404 Error Page, simply create an HTML page called error404.html and place it in your top-level Angelfire directory. You can use the page to link back to your homepage or promote specific parts of your site. What appears on the 404 Error Page is up to you. The only requirement is that the finished page must be at least 512 bytes in size.

locating web shell
I signed into Lycos and could not find a place to sign in to edit web page, ok3/basketry.  I clicked on websites and found Angelfire link.  I could not find my web shell to edit files so I upgraded thinking that was the problem. I found my control panel with weaver1025 sign in. my web name, ok3/basketry could not be located.

Where's that domain name?

Bought a domain name on July 2, didn't have domain name for assignment until today, after multiple attempts with "help tickets."

 I could not get a response nor find a phone number to call though my hosting package included phone help.  Finally checked to see if the transaction showed up on my VISA--it did, TWICE.  But a phone number also showed with each transaction.  I called and had the matter straightened out.  after about 3 hours, our domain name was alive.

For our trouble and time, we were awarded a month of free hosting.  

Please check your credit card statement to ensure that you have not been double billed.

To Amy, backing up

You can use ftp software you can get one for free from here http://www.coffeecup.com/free-ftp/

login to angelfire

host : ftp.angelfire.com

your ID and password

create a directory on your PC  and download all your files from angelfire to that directory.

it is very easy, one thing about the pages in the basic, when you  re-upload the pages, they convert to advance.

Need help with backing up

Hi Everyone,

How is everyone doing? I am trying to figure out how to go about backing up my files. I'm in WebShell, using my mom's computer at the moment, since mine is having problems.

Anyways, sometimes I just run into problems figuring out how to get things to work properly. Can't seem to find certain things that people say will be there. I see things that say, Duplicate, Move, stuff like that. I tried Duplicate, and yes, it makes a copy of things, but trying to get them on my Discs. I keep getting hacked and stuff alot, and trying to make sure I don't lose all my hard work with things.
Recently, a bunch of different repairmen keep messing things up. Plus someone who did Remote Access, turns out is not the person we thought we were contacting. A wrong information given. So, is a hacker who has looks like done something. Not sure. 

Thanks,

Amy

Alternative to Front Page
I have used Front Page since 2003, but with all the problems I'm having now with it, I am looking for an alternate way to maintain my website.  I don't want to spend a lot of money, and wonder if there is a way to convert my site to angelfire's default method of maintaining a website?
