That's what I was thinking. Make sure you are uploading to the correct folder.

If you have more than one domain on a host, you should have a separate folder for each domain. If you only have one, then you should upload to the public_html folder.

Sarah,
what settings do you have in the WWW folder in VSD for your website, and whom are you hosted with? Godaddy? :|

This site is hosted with Linux. The setting in the www folder is "www.cooldoggrooming.com." I have also been trying to deal with Coffee Cup tech support, to no avail. One thing he wanted me to do was check the files on my server. I did that. They are the files I uploaded last night! The new ones, the ones that are supposed to be showing up. So my host has the files...does this make this a host problem? Also, checking my records, I downloaded the new version of VSD on Nov. 1, that was the beginning of all my problems. Since then, I have never been able to access the site.

Also, I tried the free ftp thing, that didn't upload my site correctly either.

Hi Sarah,
http://www.cooldoggrooming.com/www.cooldoggrooming.com/
if you click here, is this your updated site? If it is, you are uploading to the wrong directory. I believe in the www folder it should be / or public_html
Or contact your hosting provider to be sure where your root directory should be :)
