Frontpage F.A.Q.
Why can't I add pages in Navigation View?
Why are parts of the pages missing, like the navigation and news sections?
How do I change the wording of "home" on the nav bar?
Why is all the formatting missing when I upload my site?
How do I make a back-up of my site?
How do I stop Frontpage overwriting my database and database connection
files?
Why can't I add pages in Navigation View?
First of all remember that the PHP version doesn't use Frontpage navigation
and that some templates rely solely on include files rather than a Frontpage
theme. For the ASP version, for some reason you can't add child pages below
a .asp page but you can get round this Frontpage quirk by renaming the page
with a .html termination, dragging in the new page to Navigation View and
then name the parent page with the .asp extension again.
Why are parts of the pages missing, like the navigation and news
sections?
This is probably because you have the PHP version and unfortunately PHP
and Frontpage don't mix too well, but we have found a way around this.
The first thing is to get the page open in Frontpage :In Frontpage go to Tools>Options>Configure Editors
Choose "Add"
Put PHP for file type
Put the same information as you have for htm, html etc. - this is usually
Editor Name: FrontPage
Command: frontpg.exe
Save
Now you can get the pages open you'll see that the include files are "missing"
- this is because they are PHP includes not Frontpage includes but you can
work on them directly from the files in the includes folder - to view your
changes locally you can download this utility
http://www.totalpconline.com/phprocketaddin/?page=orders.html or work live
on the server and on saving your page you can check it in your browser.
There's more information in the first chapter as well as in our PHP help
section.
