Using iWeb Blog or Podcast on Personal Host

from iTechster.com Video Tutorials · host Willy Vargas

Using iWeb Blog or Podcast on Personal Host Using iWeb Blog or Podcast on Personal Host, Here we will go over a few ways on how to take control of your iWeb site when using the blog or podcast pages on your personal host rather then on dotmac. When you first create your site you will give it a name for example: Site. Then you go ahead a create your first page which is usually named Welcome or what ever it may be. Now what we will do it take that first page & rename it to "index" minus the quotes. Go a head & create your pages as normal including your blog & podcast pages. Once you have completed that, we will need to modify a few things. First of all on a personal host the Search & Comment section is not available to us. So do not include that in your pages. Then if your gonna use the RSS image use your own custom image rather then the default that is used by iWeb due to the way the URL structure is setup then manually add you RSS link to it based on your actual domain name. For example: http://www.My Domain Name.com/Blog/rss.xml same can be done with the Podcast RSS as well. Now if you want to add a comment section to your blog or any page for that matter you will need to sign up for a free account with http://www.haloscan.com Set it up how you like and use their code to add the comment section to your pages. Now I have modified my code to be able to use any color for the text and pipe bar on my pages so I will provide it below. <!-- .style1 {color: #FFFFFF} -->postCount('Put Page Name Here');|postCountTB('Put Page Name Here');
