just under "update mt Site" is the save button, next to the save button on left is refresh page. Click that and page will reload. Always save your work before hitting the update button.

This should reload page then you can Update My site and should load.

If you added a lot of images and/or article this may also down the updating process

How to Sub no image with "No Image Availble"

Hi All

How can I substitute a "No Image Available" image for image that have broken link?
Trying to import image from outside source with address like example: A red car, Address is say <!--<a href="http://www.somewhereelse.com/details/product_images/red">http://www.somewhereelse.com/details/...</a> car.jpg.-->

But the link is broken somewhere and I would like to insert a "No Image Available" in it's place. Is there a way to do that threw the file manger or if I place that image on my site can I link to it .

Hi Emmy
The page numbers at bottom of page as below (as seem here http://forum.yola.com/Yola/topics?page=2) on top of page also

next »...................................................................... « previous
* 1 * 2* 3* 4* 5* 6* 7* 8* 9* 10* 11* 12* 13* 14* 15* ...* 465* 466

More of a convenience for people like me why forget the back button.

Donald,
The head and footer section are not open to use as far as i know. When I come across the codes that say to put in head I just add that information that say add to head and add to body all in the HTML widget. Most of the time it works. if it don't I remove them

A record Host @

Also check the spelling of domain name any where that you have entered it manually.
If your domain registrar has a phone number call them.

Make sure that all your publish setting have been entered properly.

When I have these problems I start from the beginning at publish you site button and check all entries. Check and re-enter all information and make sure spelling is right.
Check domain setting.

If all else fails Unpublish site then republish site.

Depending on your domain registrar remember some are slower, and some are quicker.

Be Patient Hope this helps.

"How Important Is It?"

When I find something that is working well I tend to stay with it. Yola is not like a car, toaster or frying pan that needs to be replaced. I look at it like this "If It Ain't Broke Don't Fix It."

It's a manner of option on who is better or worse. What looks good to some people looks ugly to others.

I know you don't think that Yola is broke and needs replacing. I also think that if a list was to be put out some may change to someone else. Many if these other sites had a forum like this one someone sooner or latter someone will mention Yola (If they let them) and some will come over here. Also if they had a forum would they give you a chance to ask a question like this.

I liked it at Yola and have look at other sites builders and choose Yola. I choose Yola because it the best that I could find, and Yola being the best one has help me make better sites. (yes my site still need improvement, Yola, and Get Satisfaction will help).

I guess it's what kind of list you want? Have you tried Google Search.

Maybe other who read this list will just add

"I Like Yola" and sign there name.

That will give you one list.

"How Important Is It?"

papa replied on October 17, 2009 08:05 to the question "how do i get other search enginge to notice my site i have published" in Yola:

Michael

You can summit your site threw these links. Sometimes they show up in a day or 2 and other seems like it take for ever.

For Yahoo http://siteexplorer.search.yahoo.com/...

For googles http://www.google.com/addurl/?continu...

http://www.webceo.com/pricing/index.htm
The above link is for a program that I use. Its free and a pay to use section. The free one is good by itself, but shows how to list on about 350 search engines,(some search engines free some pay some both) how to improve ranking, keywords, and much more that search engines use in finding your site. Read info before installing and see if it may work for you. They even have a section there that they will monitor your site and inform you if site goes down. Again free and pay to use sections.
