The strangest thing happened, and I realized it too late. I began designing a website and it created it as a supersite (unbeknownst to me). It should be a conventional website. Is this going to cause me problems down the road? I have added multiple pages already. I've also tried to figure out how to 'flip a switch' to turn it into a conventional website... but have not been able to figure this out. Thoughts? Could this turn into an issue?
Not an issue.
Utilities > Web Export Options > Conventional Site. Done.
You will no longer have page transitions or vertical rolldown.
I switch back and forth all the time and cannot think what you might lose.
If you have added lots of Placeholder code, switching to a Supersite would potentially be a difficulty.

In Options > General > Document Editing > Document type, check is says Web document.

As a rule, no. If you code was specific to a shape, that should still work.Quote:

A Website collection of code stays as is.

I have yet so much to learn...! Wow, by the time I'm done with this website I should be paying you a fat little commission! lol... Thanks Acorn!Quote:

your solution << In Options > General > Document Editing > Document type, check is says Web document.>> worked
