If there is an 800 help line I'll call it. I've done most of what is mentioned above from text boxes to help sections, and so on. I even got a coffee cup web domain and have tried for several days to publish to there while I'm learning and it indicates it was successful, but then it says "There's Nothing Here Yet."

I've gone as far down this road as I'm going. If there's an 800 help line, I'll call it. Otherwise, I'm back to iWeb and what works for me. I've had my web site down way too long to keep on with this.

You can reach us at (678) 495-3480. Our hours of operations are Monday - Friday 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. Eastern Standard Time.

Go to your SDrive dashboard and click Settings, then where it says "Show my _____ as my home page",
click the drop-down arrow and choose site.



You need to create a menu of some sort (text, buttons, images...) then you can select your button (for example) and click the Link icon (top menu) – you'll see all your options there.
(See Scott's link above as well as Step 4 in the Help file)

VSD really is very easy and quick once you're familiar with it

Scott remember that suggestion of mine for a pay for live help thread

Don I have free calls to USA , Australia, UK, and free skype chat if you would like me to help you

"Go to your SDrive dashboard and click Settings, then where it says "Show my _____ as my home page",
click the drop-down arrow and choose site."

paintbrush, I'd already done that several times before I posted here. I've done it several times since. I just tried it again. It's been set to "Show my site as my home page" for days and nothing has shown up yet.

I thought I could at least get my home site re-published through iWeb and then try to learn Coffee Cup on my coffeecup.com site, but I can't even get it to do that. I did get my main site running again and have added several links and new pages over the week-end. I can't get a test site to even show up in coffeecup.com, and never did figure out how to link to a second page...or link from the second page back to the home page. This whole experience is bizarre.

I just logged into account and you have never uploading anything to S-Drive Don. The only way to upload anything to S-Drive is with a CoffeeCup program. If you use iWeb, then you need to upload that site with Direct FTP.

Creating links is VSD is very easy:

Just checking everything I can thing of....

In VSD, have you done this?:

When you click the arrow next to the Show Page icon, do you see a list of the pages you've created? If so, you're ready to create a menu and/or page links. These pages will show up in your options when you click the Links icon.
Scott's link above explains how to create text, image and shape links.

This would be so much easier if one of us could just sit with you at your computer for a few minutes...
Maybe you should get with Viv on Skype

This might help a little.
Add page in VSD and link them.

Scott, I just did that on my PC with Coffee Cup, Visual Site Designer.

I'm going to do it again and type the steps exactly as I do them.

1. I click Publish up top.
2. Then I click Coffee Cup S Drive Settings.
3. It says Please Sign Into Your Coffee Cup account. It wants my email address and password. It's already entered. I hit Save again. It says Valid Coffee Cup account.
4. I click "Publish" on the upper right between Mouseover and Preview.
5. It says it is publishing my site. It starts at 0/14 and continues till it reaches 14/14. It says the upload successful and wants me to click "View Website." I click View Website.
6. It takes me to a Coffee Cup page that says "There's Nothing Here Yet."
7. I clicked the control panel and it takes me to another page and it wants me to log in again. I sign back in.
8. It takes me to another Coffee Cup page. It says Site, Shop, Form, Stream, etc. I click Settings.
9. I scroll down on the left and it says "Show My Site As My Home Page." It is always set that way and yet nothing ever shows up on donsides.coffeecup.com
10. I even cut and pasted the donsides.coffeecup.com URL in my browser after doing all this and it says "There's Nothing Here Yet."

It appears that I did everything that paintbrush suggested. I just did it and typed it here, step by step. I am on a PC. I am using Coffee Cup. I am using Visual Site Designer. What do you suggest now?

Try this Don.

1. Open your website and do a File > Save As and save your website into a new folder on your desktop.

2. Restart VSD and open the newly saved website that was created on your desktop.

3. Go to Publish > CoffeeCup Account Settings and enter in your CoffeeCup account information

4. Go to Publish > Choose a Publishing Destination and select your S-Drive account

5. Click Publish
