Can't import html because site is password protected

Imbach — Sat, 08 Aug 2015 02:24:50 +0000

Hi everyone

I’ve got an old website/blog that was done on iWeb and not been updated recently. It’s hosted and live and now I want to move it to a WP site so I can eventually print a photo book of the blog entries. I’ve tried the HTML Import 2 but it blocks me because unfortunately, my site is password protected so only family and friends with the pw can read it. The easiest would be to take the pw function out in iWeb, which I’ve done, but I seem to not be able to publish it (probably because it’s a pretty old version of iWeb).

Is there a way around the password when I import html? (RSS import does only work partially because it wasn’t there from the start of the blog).

Thanks in advance!

Moving away from iWeb created site and have my site be all WordPress

jshort — Wed, 03 Jun 2015 05:57:04 +0000

I created a website (laurieshort.com) on iWeb about 3 years ago. I added a WordPress site (blog.laurieshort.com) with a link widget on the WordPress blog page to my iWeb site pages and a link on my iWeb pages back to the blog site. I want to dump all the iWeb pages and create new ones using the theme I picked, NatureOne Pro. It is all hosted at BlueHost.

How do I get my primary domain, laurieshort.com, to have it go to my WordPress theme home page? I’ll create new pages for the ones I’m not using in iWeb anymore.

I’ve tried and messed it up by changing the URL of the WordPress and Site addresses in my Settings/General tab of the Dashboard and then had to go into phpMyAdmin and correct them. That, of course, didn’t work.

I have public_html/blog and I have public_html/laurieshort in my file manager so they are subfolders. What I don’t know how to do is have laurieshort.com be my WordPress site and get rid of the iWeb part and the blog.laurieshort.com part.

I had someone mention “If you have control over your domain’s nameservers you could point those to BlueHost then create your site on the same url as your iWeb site.” but I don’t really follow what to do with that. I have DNS Zone Editor on my BlueHost cPanel but it’s not clear how to change it their.

Any help greatly appreciated. I know I’m one of those guys that knows just enough to be dangerous messing around with this stuff but I’m learning the more I screw it up

Thanks,
Jerome

iWeb to WordPress

stefiharr — Sun, 26 Apr 2015 18:22:58 +0000

Hi there,

I had an old site in iWeb and just installed WordPress on that domain. At first, I could get into the new WP dashboard, but when I tried to “Visit Site”, it would go to a 404 page. The domain I installed WP on is evolveyogafitness.com, and that 404 page was https://evolveyogafitness.com/Evolve_Yoga_+_Fitness/Home.html.

Then, I deleted the iWeb files, and it was still going to that page with the long extension (/Evolve_Yoga_+_Fitness/Home.html). My web host (BlueHost) was able to do something in the .htaccess file to make the 404 page stop coming up, and now I CAN view the site…but the home page is still going to https://evolveyogafitness.com/Evolve_Yoga_+_Fitness/Home.html instead of just https://evolveyogafitness.com.

I’ve read a couple of threads in here about a similar issue, but haven’t found the solution yet. BlueHost suggested I contact a developer or WordPress to help…as they couldn’t figure it out.

If you have any other ideas, I’d be oh-so-grateful!

Thank you,
Stefani

Installing wordpress and index.html

ayane9 — Tue, 03 Mar 2015 19:44:18 +0000

I am editing a website hosted through machighway. the website is relatively old and base been edited though iWeb in the past. I went thought machighways administrative portal cpanel to install wordpress. Installing wordpress went smoothly selected a theme and everything.

And then here lies the problem, making any changes though the worpress admin portal changes nothing. The old iWeb website still loads. i have scoured the web on how to fix this and i found that there is an index.html file in the root directory from iWeb. in this case my root is /home/lolk/public_html . there is an index.html file in there but even upon removing it no changes take effect.

Can I work on my site from any computer?

Canamera — Thu, 15 May 2014 11:12:46 +0000

Please forgive me if my question seems obvious. I have read lots but not found the answer.

Currently I run a small (50 pages) but successful website created in iweb. My computer needs replacing but Apple have stopped supporting iweb. I am looking for a new website building and maintaining application. HOWEVER, I really need one that I can use to update or work on my site from ANY computer (that has WordPress on it, of course). The reason for that is because I do not want to be left in the position where I have to rebuild my site from scratch if my main computer goes down, etc. I do know about back-ups but I just want to work on my site across a variety of computers well into the future.

Will WordPress be for me? Thanks, in advance, for replies.

migrating iWeb created site

LakeDunmore-Vermont — Mon, 18 Mar 2013 12:18:11 +0000

total noob here. I made a simple 3 page website (not a blog) using iWeb (several years ago). Is there any way I can simply drag all the files and drop somewhere? Really dont want to take a lot of time with setting up a website.

Duplicating WP Site, Importing iWeb site, saving time.

Saimurai — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 15:39:00 +0000

Hi there,

First of all let me just say that i am not a web designer, i am a photographer and filmmaker and have no programming background whatsoever, but i can work a lot out thanks to forums, support and just some old fashioned gumption!

So, quickly, I have had wonderful success getting my own Web hosting account with IX Web Hosting, creating my own WordPress website (www.saikelly.com) and managing it all myself to the level i am content with. I don’t fully understand why it all works, but its not my main calling so i don’t want to spend my life doing this! I used to use iWeb, in all its glitchy-glory, but it proved a pain everytime i wanted to re-edit the site. Also, due to recent hard drive death, I lost the latest version of iWeb’s Domain file and so the edit files are lost. and iWeb doesn’t allow you to reimport an exported site so thats out.

What i would like to do now, is redesign my old iWeb site (www.saikoproductions.com) into a more manageable and updatable WordPress site. There are some features that i would like to keep from the old look of the site as i haven’t the time to recreate a site from scratch and there are no templates that i think work the way i want them to for video sites. Currently my Vimeo page is the most up-to-date with regards to my work, but i would like my main website to be the first port-of-call for customers, so i’d like to tie in my various you tube channels and Vimeo pages with embedded links, or have my newly uploaded Vimeo videos feature on my website etc.

I have been looking at importing old HTML sites into WordPress with HTML Import 2 plugin, but it is proving more time consuming that just starting again! and when it finally works, will it be as simple as having the site fully editable in WordPress?

What would people suggest i do.

By the way I am keeping www.saikoproductions.com live as is, and practicing all this on saikoproductions.net, which i am currently installing WordPress onto.

Oh and there is another iWeb site that i made for another person that they’d like updated also.

Kind regards,

Sai Kelly

Equivalent Theme to iWeb White? I.e., simple and clean

dr-seahorse — Wed, 05 Dec 2012 11:32:01 +0000

I am currently using iWeb for a personal / very small business website (https://marshall.com.sg). The theme is “White”. I really like the clean and simple interface. As everyone tells me that its time to move to WordPress, could you recommend an equivalent theme, which is mobile compatible, that is similar?

Thanks

Installation, Importing iWeb, Multisites,

Hi there, so I’m having an issue.

Im so tired. Im not a web designer, but i can’t afford one and i learn quick. Im on a Mac.

I’ve been scouring the forums and the codexes for a few weeks now trying to solve this but either my issues are slightly different, the resolutions that others have won’t work for me or i just can’t understand due to all the short-hand and assumed knowledge that people offer.

So here’s my issue. I have an account with ix webhosting so i have full control over my sites and hosting capabilities. I have about 5 domains that i have sites on or almost on. I have one fully working site and 4 that i want to rebuild. 4 are mine, 1 is someone else’s. I want them all to be wordpress.

The one I’m happy with and have just finished building is www.saikelly.com; my (wordpress) photography site. What i want to do is redesign my film production site, www.saikoproductions.com. It previously had an iWeb site up that i removed. What i was hoping to do was redesign the iWeb site while keeping the content and some of the look into a better, simpler and more functional video gallery site.

I’ve tried uploading and importing the iWeb exported html files into wordpress (this was a simple download of the iWeb site from the live page): no good. I’ve tried uploading my saikelly.com site to the saiko site domain and simply tried changing the links using the “search and replace” plugin, scouring the files in the folder of any references to saikelly.com, (none appeared), or changing the config.php file to different DB_NAMEs and DB_USERs and even changing the “$table_prefix = ‘wp_2’;” instead of what it originally said “$table_prefix = ‘wp_’;” at one point it all worked but had to chafe the DB_HOST one removing the long mysql.ixwebhosting.com (“ip address”) and just putting the ip address in without brackets. For now I’ve just re-upped the old iWeb site onto saikoproductions.com so that there is something there.

All advice i’ve tried, I’ve received from the forums, so what do i need to do?

From scratch, this is what i did after i’d finished the saikelly.com site, I went to https://cp8.ixwebhosting.com/psoft/servlet/psoft.hsphere.CP/C368804/12084468_0/psoft.hsphere.CP?template_name=quick/quick_view.html

and click on the MySQL Server icon in the databases section. Then clicked “add database” and named it something new so that i didn’t have it clash with the database from saikelly.com, add privileges to existing user from the saikelly.com site and gave it privileges ‘dba’.

I downloaded all the files and folders from the saikelly.com site using cyberduck and then simply tried to upload all the files and folders using cyberduck into the saiko site hoping to simply change all the necessary links and names and content as i went. To save me designing from scratch. i was hoping that the saikelly.com pages would just be on the new domain saikoproductions.com with all the links and pages simply needing renamed and the gallery content just being missing (i didn’t upload all that data as i didn’t need it)

I tried changing the config.php file first so that the new details were there like database name, i then ried going back in and adding a new user onto that database instead of simply giving the old user name access and privileges.

But eventually, all that would happen with any pages i created, would be that they would link across to saikelly.com or just turn to blank pages.

I design all the sites on the go, live and online in wordpress. I tried using MAMP Pro but couldn’t understand how to set it up, and when an HTML page came up saying that it was now live and installed, I didn’t have a clue how the UI worked.

1. Do i need a new database per website with new user?
2. Can i upload and edit old html files in wordpress?
3. If not can copy across another wordpress site into a different domain and just customise it?
4. Am i doing anything right here?
5. Cyberduck is so glitchy and unreliable, is there a better one i should be using?
6. why do i appear to have copies of wordpress on the saikelly.com site? i copied the original contents of the wordpress folder when installing to the root directory saikelly.com and now theres a saikelly.com/wordpress directory with similar folders and files like plugins, themes, wp_content etc. Do i need to keep the root directory files and folders or have i done a duplication error here?

Kind regards,

Sai

Help! Tried adding Add on Domain through bluehost now everythings gone

dannyking — Tue, 23 Oct 2012 14:51:21 +0000

As the title says. I got a free domain through bluehost when I signed up. I made a very simple website using IWeb and was hoping to host it through bluehost as an independent site and link back to the blog from there. I created an FTP account for my new domain and used Easy iWeb publisher to upload the new site Going off advice I got from another forum. Unfortunately this overwrote my entire blog. I have now removed the add on account and site but don’t know where to go from here. I’m just getting 404 pages. The wordpress admin is still working and I have the xml file. I was just wondering how I get back up and running? Thank You.
