Q: iWeb Replacement

Is Apple going to be replacing iWeb anytime soon? I really don't like the the alternatives. Freeway Pro, Rapidweaver and Sandvox. I have them all and none do I like. Too many add on things in hopes of making a better page. Too much cost.

 

I really want iWeb or a new version now. iWeb is OK but limited now because of no further support.

    Yes, Apple did "Care to tell you" and they informed all MobileMe customers/users that it would be discontinued at least a year and then six months before it went, so you had time to look for alternative hosting.  This was done by e-mail at least a year and then six months before, so you were told.

     

    iWeb was discontinued because MobileMe was discontinued and when MobileMe went, there was no need for iWeb, hence why it is an unsupported product.

     

    iCloud does not offer hosting, so no need for iWeb and there are better products out there now and companies that concentrate their efforts solely on software, that Apple do not do.

    I never used MobileMe.

     

    I don't use iCloud.

     

    I was thinking of copying and pasting the html....

    Yes, I realise that you never used MobileMe and don't use iCloud - iCloud does not allow for web hosting anyway, which is why Apple shelved iWeb in the first place.

     

    The replies about MobileMe and iCloud were not to you, but to others!

     

    Copying and pasting the html will not really work with a WYSIWYG programme.  It is a lot better just to start from scratch and copy and paste the content, as it was intended.

     

    You don't need to do it all in one go, but you can do it gradually and then you have a nice new website at the end of it in a programme that is supported and your can then upload it.
