Hello Webmasters! Hope you've had a restful weekend. I am sharing the answers to some of our questions and posting reminders for some of the topics we covered. Please let me know if there is other information you need. I'll publish dates for our informal summer sessions soon. Thanks again to Cheryl Woolwine for coming in to help. Your help is greatly appreciated Cheryl!
- The reasons we were having problems publishing to your ftp folder in iWork 09 was one which is embarrassing to admit but further confirms that it's the little things that can foil our best made plans. If you use /Sites for your path directory it will work fine. You must capitalize the word Sites. Dang case sensitivity. Note that Sites is plural too.
- If you need another ftp folder for playing around with iWeb this summer please let me know. I didn't write down a list of people who needed those.
- A resource we discussed and wanted to share: http://www.publicdomain4u.com/
- This is the favs link from the EETT workshop which contains the downloader helper information, the TED link, and some other goodies http://tech.putnamschools.org/marsha/Favorites.html
- Two other suggested downloads for your new MacBook were Firefox
http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/personal.html And the desktop client for First Class http://pcsdmail.putnamschools.org/ The server name has to be entered in the settings menu on the Mac version. If you need that information please call. - For EETT participants who need to turn in their MacBooks which have iWeb 08 on them, please remove your documents and turn those in to your campus administrator as soon as you have completed your projects. I intend to inventory the Gateway laptops which have been used with our Webmaster's project one more time. When they are returned we will complete the paperwork to have those transferred to your school's inventory. If you want to keep them so DreamWeaver will still be available to you that is fine with me. Just let your principal know.
I look forward to seeing you this summer if you can join us. This will be voluntary, informal training for those who are interested in learning more about creating web sites on the Mac platform using iWeb.
Thanks for all you do.
Marsha
