Links lost in Firefox preview

RapidWeaver Classic General

All links lost when I preview in Firefox. All fine in program preview. Any ideas?

Thanks

cannon,

By ā€˜lostā€™ do you mean the actual hyperlinks behind them donā€™t work; or that you can no longer see the distinguishing attributes (different color, underline etc) in the browser window?

Have you an online/accessible example. by any chance, please?

Mark -

I get the following when in Firefox preview mode, from each link.

File not found

Firefox canā€™t find the file at /private/var/folders/k0/1vw0ccns2n9b97b3f482n8p80000gn/T/com.realmacsoftware.rapidweaver6/RapidWeaver/27882/document-0x6080003e5a00/RWDocumentPagePreview-2/page4/.

Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.

Iā€™ll see if I can upload a non-active version of the site. Iā€™ve totally rebuilt geraldcannon.com exactly as is with updates.

when you preview a page in Firefox or Safari, it just loads that page onto the browser, the links will be links, but they will not take you to the appropriate pages.

cannon, and what happens when you do publish it? Are the links not visible live then?

It looks as though you may have moved a file, ā€˜manuallyā€™; is that a possibility?

Thanks for the info guys. I didnā€™t know that the page was all that previewed - not the links.
Now I canā€™t get the site to publish. No message, just show uploading bar with no movement. This all worked so seamlessly with v5!

cannon,

Sorry to hear that youā€™re not quite out of the woods :frowning:

Have you checked all your Publish Site settings?

Does it Export - locally?

If so, can you ftp the exported sites to a server - ideally a newly-created subfolder (called, for instance, something like ā€˜newsiteā€™) and see it at ā€˜http://www.yoursiterealname/newsite/index.htmlā€™?

If you canā€™t see it, try creating a small sing-page test site with one Stack or Styled text page; and see if that will upload to a test area. If not, it could well be your Publishing Settings. Good luck!

Thanks Mark. Got everything published and looking good. Learned a lot.
