I am looking for some support! I am completely new to RW8. My boss wants me to completely change the content (there is only one home page and a contact form) I am able to make the changes and when I go to publish it says everything has worked and to visit the page but it is just showing all the old content and images. I think it may have something to do with the path but I am no too sure - please help!
Thank you
Without seeing the publishing settings (a screenshot would be great) and knowing the hosting company you are using it’s difficult for anyone to help you out.
It could be that the changes are there and working for everyone, but you are seeing the old version from your browser’s cache. Have you tried clearing your cache? Or try viewing the page on a different computer or device.
When you set up your web hosting, we automatically create a folder called htdocs within your webspace. This is your main folder and should be where all your website content is stored
Now they offer a lot of different plans so perhaps this article is different than what they told you. That’s why I’d suggest you do what I outlined above with browsing for the path. It looks like they have a file manager you can use to explore what’s out there on the server.
What’s strange is that you didn’t get any errors when the path you have didn’t exist.
CLEAR the path, empty, then hit browse, then select htdocs. That should fill in the path correctly. Sometimes you need a trailing or preceding slash/, by browsing and selecting the directory, RapidWeaver will fill the path out correctly.
