Hi Carol,

first step is to read up
Topic: TUTORIAL: Step-by-Step Guide to building your website
http://www.rootschat.com/forum/index.php/topic,93490.0.html

in particular,
4 a) Building a website using a Family History Program
and
 6. Uploading to your site, and
6b Using an FTP program

6a Using the RootsChat File Manager FTP
will be more useful later if you change single files, but Legacy tends to produce lots of small files, so 6b will be better for you.

Have a go, and if/when you get stuck, let us know here, and someone will help you with the next step

Good luck,
Bob

If you "told" legacy to create web files, they should all be together in one directory (folder)

Just load the contents of that directory to your website, using an FTP program

And take heart -  there are a lot of ex-dummies here who are now proud owners of up-and-running websites  Smiley

I know i will get there but due to illness it has taken a long time. Now i just want it up. I think i know my problem. for some reason my page location on Legacy will not let me put in Data files etc roots chat so may have to dump these pages and create new ones if it will let me.

Did you receive any activation email to activate your website??  IF not then your website has not been activated. IF yes, then there is a problem.  In which case you must email Trystan (the boss/owner of this website) to help you.

Have you tried uploading your webpages with the Rootschat FTP program? There is one below.  First you must log in with  stonehouse.rootschat.net (nothing else) and your password.

http://www.rootschat.net/cgi-bin/amanager.cgi

Once you have logged in, then click File Manager and from there you can upload your pages.

Re the legacy webpages - you might need to upload each page rather than the entire file. The pages SHOULD be htm or html pages. After all, they are webpages right?

Hope this helps.

Carol,

among the pages you uploaded, was at least one page called either index.htm or index.html ?

This is the home page, or starting page, which the website needs to have.

You dont have any web pages up. Only images and 1 picture.
Thats why you're not seeing anything. You need to make (and upload) a webpage called index.html or index.htm (depending on what software you use).

You can still link to your images, (as I have done below) but without an index page, you dont have a website.

Hey I just read your profile. You're in NZ?
Cool. I'm a Kiwi too, but now I live in Canada. I lived and worked for a number of years in Auckland - moved around a lot too.  Roll Eyes Places like Onehunga, Takapuna, Glenfield, Royal Oak, Mt Eden,  Mt Roskill and even way out in Henderson for a while too.  Grin

Oh yeah, and my sister lives in Pukukohe and works - I think - in Waiuku.  Grin
