I tried publishing my new XWD6 site but it would not come up. I renamed my 1st page index.htm but still no website. Any ideas on what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance

Hi megaladon47, welcome to TG
We might need a little more info before we can help
Who are you hosting with and what instructions have they supplied ?
What are you using to upload the files ? (and to which folder)

I am hosted at GoDaddy and have a hosting program with multiple websites.
They said to just FTP to the domain name eg. ftp.xxxxx.com
I am using WSD6 to FTP the site and it shows published.
Thanks for the help..seriously
Sorry, but I wouldn't know which folder and how to pick a folder while FTP from XWD6.
Are you able to reveal the domain name and did they mention anything about a public_html or htdocs subfolder ?

URL is nflbestpicks.com
They didn't mention any subfolders at all but when I go to enter the Folders area there are a bunch of files there, mostly from my previous FTPs.
You can get to the page by typing: http://nflbestpicks.com/indexbestpicks.htm But that's not good for people trying to search or type the URL. Maybe this helps you some and really, thanks alot.
Are you naming your first file indexbestpicks.htm or index.htm ? (probably a silly question )

Also check that you are using upper and lower case in the right places. might have to disappear in a minute. Setting up the sound system for a gig tonight.

Am naming the main page index without the .htm for now but have tried the index.htm and .html but to no avail and it will not overwrite the file that is online. Crazt huh?
Gig hugh? I am in Ensenada, Mx and we have Gigs on the beach every day LOL
You have the first page filename set to "indexbestpicks.htm".
Please make sure it is set to "index.htm".
To set the first page filename, select the first page in your document, open web properties dialog (Ctrl+Shift+W), select "Page" tab, enter "index.htm" in the "Page filename" field and finally click the "Apply" button.
Then re-export and publish your site.
John.
