Hi Everyone,

Having problems with Website.ws hosting my site (without sitebuilder).  I want to upload my own files - as I have done already.  I have uploaded index.html however going to my domain www.rodrigosoto.ws shows the page 'underconstruction'.  Am i missing something here?

Kind Regards
Rodrigo Soto

Be patient!  You must wait approx...24 hours from the time you decide to use the hosting feature.  After that...you will see your directory page and will have the ability to upload your files.

Yup what Frank Said its called DNS propagation. It did occur to me to ask if you had switched the site to the hosting option in the control panel?

Hello,
As far as I am aware you can not change your Domain name, what you can do is direct 1 domain to another.. So person puts in address 1 and ends up at Address 2..

The other option would be to replace 1 Website with the other..  If you are using SiteBuilder you will need to do a lot of Copy + Paste for this, but if you are Hosting your Website, which I see in another post, you are not... But if you are hosting for your New Website, you can just Upload it to the SERVER and you will be fine.. NEW WEBSITE, same address..

You must purchase a new domain name.  After purchasing the new one, cancel the old one.  Go to your Members area and purchase the new one.  Then click on support, choose canceling from the drop down menu.  From there let Support know that you want to cancel your domain name.  Make sure you tell them which one you want to cancel and it will be done almost immediately.

Hi,

just hit the refresh button in your browser... This sometimes works... The old page is still present until you refresh...

Also make sure you have set your Domain to Hosting...  If you can access your sitebuilder you are not set for hosting...

Greetings To All New .WS Owners and Affiliates:

I've just built my website, started on the date of 2006-FEB-26th, and as each day passes, I have newer more inventive ways of causing my website to appear more appealing and representable.  However, the question that does come into view, in my years of Internet Website Forums and Community Boards that I presently partner with, and administer, is once your site is published, and presented to the world wide web as a whole, is it hackable? 

Knowing that websites on the Net do fall under such malicious attacks and threats globally, what steps and stages, and procedures...protocols, if you will, are set in place currently to prevent the "downfall" of our property (internet/virtual real estate in the forms of .WS sites) during such instances?

We all have friends and foes that are either there to help us or harm us, and frankly, it does exist, especially during a time when hacking is and has become a world wide public enemy #1, apart from malicious programs like trojans, spyware, etc.

Thank you all for your comments on this matter.  Looking forward to intelligent and responsive feedback.

Cordially Yours,

Mr. Cleveland A. Paige, Jr.

Greetings and Good Morning All GDI Affiliates and .WS Owners:

I've been reading the Copyrights Booklets, PDFs and the sorts.

What is the approach of names of your websites, of the .WS Domain name endings?  My site, for instance, has microsoft in the domain name .  Am I in violation, and if so, do I need to make changes on my site as far as the Home page name, or should I keep it as is?  Would like some advice, as to stay and steer clear from any legal troubles.   

When making the name, I checked to see if that name is available, and it was, so, I registered it.  But, I don't want to get into any difficult legal issues.

Thanks for your answers, links, and connections of information, at your leisure.  There may be some copyright paragraphs and policies that I may have failed to read up on, and may have missed or overlooked them.  Appreciate the assistance, guidance and help. Wink

Cordially Yours In Success and Achievements,

Mr. Cleveland A. Paige, Jr.

Thank you for the rapid response.  Some of the copyrights here in Germany and the USA differ, but some are similar and say/speak the same thing.
Your reply is noted.

This is the first time I heard about PHP at GDI forum/website.
I was very, very sad to think that I had not access to it... I browsed member's site showcases and saw no traces of programming being used...

Still, without programming capabilities, GDI offer would left something to desire for the pro's...

On the other side, with PHP, I will stick with GDI and buy my domain when my trial period is over...

HI, I know the GDI website doesn't say anything about having php capabilities but we do as long as we are using the hosting option. I haven't created my main .ws site yet but I have created several pages that I use to promote and I am currently using several php scripts on my .ws domain and they work perfectly. I am thinking of building my entire main site using php mainly for ease of updating links etc later on. So far I am using php contact forms, php rotator scripts, and I am working on adding a few others as needed. If you would like to see examples of the php scripts im using message me and i'll send you the pages and the code if you want it. Cheers! Les
