Publishing Issues and no support

[Sidelines]

Anyone have problems publishing to a different host other than xara's ? I keep getting e error message of General FTP Error...I've got several emails into Xara for support with no replies.

Welcome to TalkGraphics

What is your web hosting company?

And are you publishing to the correct sub-directory? Most web hosting companies require you to publish your files to a certain sub-folder such as public_html or htdocs or something like this.

I have published dozens of websites to several different web hosts without any issues.

Thank you we just got it fiqured out...now, we have music playing on it with the music widget...how come when we look the web up on our phone it brings the site up and when we go to the first page it only shows the bars for the music player...also is there a way to have the music playing during the entire time someone is looking at the site even as they go from page to page ?

Not sure what the answer is, BUT, personally, if I go to a site and music or video starts automatically, I am totally out of there. So fast it'll make your head spin.

I resent this. I find it intrusive and I have 0% tolerance. And I know that when this comes up on TG there are a lot of people who feel the same way.

Indeed, I said the same things to the OP's other post

Seriously though, as an example consider that the visitor may already playing their favorite music in the background. Imagine how suddenly mixing in 'your choice' of music will intrude on their peace and enjoyment.
Don't do it just because you can.

@sidelines - Just to give you the benefit of the doubt. What is the content of your website and why do you feel music is important to its success?

We are taking it out.....just thought it was different...all of the comments on this make sense.....we also have the issue that when you try to look at the site via a Andriod cell, the music bar loads and you can't get to the site pages....
