Q: iWeb 3.0.4 will not publish changes.

I have not updated or made any changes to my system.  I am using Leopard.  Suddenly, iWeb is not working.  I edit my homepage, but when I publish, the changes do not appear online.  I have tried several times; I have even delted the home page and created a new one from scratch.  But every time I publish, it just shows the previous version.  I'm trying to change a link for one of the words on the page, but it won't work.  Help!

    Clear your browser's cache (Command+Option+E for Safari) and reload the site.

    What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand? Where are you hosting your site?  How are you uploading the files to the site?  What browser are you using? What version of iWeb?

     

    When did this first start?  Did you install any updates or upgrades just before this problem began?

    I am having the same problem. I created a new website with iWeb and when I test the connection everything is ok. The site page listing on the upper left side of the window is red and next to the site name there is a small icon that looks similar to an RSS feed icon. When I click on PUBLISH ENTIRE SITE that option grays out but nothing happens. In the past when I have published websites next to the site name there is a circle that shows the progress of the upload and when completed the list turns blue. I have cleared cache, quit iWeb and restarted the computer. I do have multiple usernames on this computer each with a different iWeb website, but none of them are logged in.

    Godaddy is the host and I called their support line and all my settings are correct. Although they tried, they could not help me beyond that. My iWeb version is 3.0.3 and I am running on OSX v 10.5.8.

    I have had similar problems in the past with iWeb not publishing changes, but usually after I do the things above it will work.

    Please help! Thanks.

    Ditto to all of the above.

     

     

    I'm publishing to an FTP site, but wile it takes iWeb time to publish the changes, none of the new or changed docs are actually uploaded.  In looking at the files via an FTP client, none of them have changed, so no new web site has been uploaded...
