Hi harbino,

Just checked the DNS records for www.main-dss.co.cc and they are set correctly (with a A-record) and resolve to the SynthaSite server. What's more is that when I go to http://www.main-dss.co.cc it lands on your SynthaSite page, so there is nothing more you have to do - it is all set up and working.

You can host it anywhere that support PHP.

But by far the easiest way to get it live would be to just publish and host it with us for free. That way you don't even have to download it - just press publish and pick and domain and it will be live instantly/

lisaretief replied on May 18, 2008 16:59 to the question "why is my domain name invalid" in Yola:

Thank you for reporting this - you have discovered a bug (software defect) in the system. I am able to recreate the problem using a domain that I have successfully published to.

Luckily it does not affect the functioning of the system and your site will continue to work well under the domain you have published it to - it is just saying that it is invalid when in fact it is not. We will make sure this is fixed as soon as possible.

We love getting rid of bugs, so thank you for your help.

Hi stuart,

I have had a look at your domain details and everything looks like it is set up fine and the last step should just be to publish it to "www.codnor.info". So from what I can see you are doing everything right.

Let me run some test on my side to see if I can spot anything.

Hi Darren,

When I enter "www.ultimatehorseboxes.co.uk" in my browser I see your SynthaSite - the same one as at "www.ultimatehorseboxes.synthasite.com".

Let me know if that is what you see now too.

J, I was asking for more detail on the original post so that I could feed it back into our feature planning. We are always looking for feedback from our users.

lisaretief replied on May 15, 2008 14:07 to the question "Website doesn't work" in Yola:

Paul, try linking to this: http://www.candeez.co.uk/

Also, try typing that url into your browser (not via google).

I suspect it will not work.

lisaretief replied on May 15, 2008 12:08 to the question "Website doesn't work" in Yola:

Candeez,

Who is your domain registrar and where did you create the record that points candeez.co.uk to our IP address?

You will have to create one that points www there as well.

This will mean you will have two A-Records:
1. candeez.co.uk --> 208.75.208.172
2. www.candeez.co.uk --> 208.75.208.172

Depending on who your registrar is these can look different - some make you put the full domain in like this:
www.candeez.co.uk --> 208.75.208.172

Others just the prefix like this:
www --> 208.75.208.172

Hi funkyheart,

www should do the trick for host name.

Yes, if you use SynthaSite it won't cost you anything and you will have a web site forever for free. And what's better, you don't even have to download anything, you can just use it directly in your browser.

Have fun.

lisaretief replied on May 06, 2008 04:56 to the question "Getting a members private area in my site" in Yola:

J, nice to see how eager you are.

As I mentioned to Zooz, there is no support in the current SynthaSite release for restricting access to your website, but it is on our backlog.

lisaretief replied on April 28, 2008 07:59 to the question "ftp?" in Yola:

Yes, you can host a site created with SynhaSite elsewhere. Simply choose to download your site instead of publishing it. Save it somewhere (like your desktop) and then FTP it to your web host.

lisaretief replied on April 24, 2008 16:53 to the question "ftp?" in Yola:

Hi todd,

If I understand your question properly, then it is not possible.

Your SynthaSite needs to be created in the Site Builder. You can then choose to publish it to the SynthaSite servers and have it hosted there for free. You can use a SynthaSite domain or your own.

You can also choose to download it and the upload it (FTP) to another hosting provider.

There is no way to link your published SynthaSite to some other source of content, other than through content widgets at site creation time.

Please take a look at our tutorials at http://www.synthasite.com/support.

Hi Clive,

Can you give me the the URL to your site? Then I can have a look and try to see what is going on.

Hi joyce,

How did you make it into a web page, and what does 'filtered' mean? What format is the resulting file - what file extension does it have?

I must admit I am a bit confused as to what you are describing.

When you say that you open it and get a picture holder screen, is that before or after you have published the site?

What is the URL of your published site so that we can check out what you mean?

lisaretief replied on April 15, 2008 11:17 to the question "Can I make people pay?" in Yola:

Hi Trevor,

You can charge people for your services any time, and of course they will have to decide whether it is worth it to them or not.

At this stage we do not have a 'certified' network of people we endorse as excellent at making SynthaSites - we may look at such a system in the future. Personally I think it could be a great opportunity for any one wanting to help others create websites.

Just be warned that we intend to make the Site Builder and associated services so easy to use that you will have to become very good in order to add value on top of that.

Good luck, and welcome on board as a SynthaSite user!
