FAQs - How do I publish my site using
Front Page? |
| Uploading
in Front Page is accomplished using
the Publish function. It is
very important that when your site
was created in Front Page it was
created as a "web" and not individual
pages. Front Page knows to
publish all pages within the web
when it publishes.
To perform the publish function,
open the copy of your site which
you have created on your computer.
Before beginning publishing please
make sure that the first page of
your site is named index.htm or
index.html.

1)
Click on the Publish button (pointer
1 in Figure FP1 above). This
will open the Publish Dialog box.
|
2) Figure
FP2 and FP3 show the Publish Web
Dialog box. When it first
appears it may look like Figure
FP2. Click the Options button
(pointer 1 in Figure FP2) to drop
down the Options shown in Figure
FP3.
In the
location line (pointer 1 in Figure
FP3) type the location of your website.
Do NOT over type the http:// portion.
That needs to remain. Ex.
if your website were mywebsite.com
in this line you would type http://www.mywebsite.com
. Next, click the circle (pointer
2 in Figure FP3) next to "Publish
all pages, overwriting any already
on the destination." (In the
future, after publishing for the
first time you will likely change
this back to "Publish changed pages
only" to make publishing faster).
When finished, click the Publish
button (pointer 3 in Figure FP3).
|
After clicking
the Publish button the window shown
in Figure FP4 will appear, indicating
that Front Page is trying to connect
to the server.
|
Once
Front Page has connected
to the server it will display
the box shown in Figure
FP5 asking for username
and password. These
were provided to you in
your setup letter. Enter
the username and password
exactly as provided in your
setup letter. When
finished, click OK. You
will then return to Figure
FP4 and will see pages flying
from one side to the other,
indicating publishing is
taking place.
In some cases publishing
may time or error out before
completing. This is
common in cases of a slow
internet connection, but
may occur in other cases
as well. If publishing
times out, simply return
to the Publishing Dialog
and click Publish again
to resume the process.
If you receive an error
message saying Front Page
cannot connect to the server,
click Publish again.
If you get the error message
a second time you may not
have requested Front Page
extensions for your site.
