I created a subdomain using stacks, the problem without publishing it remains in the designed format rather than the website format. Please advise. Thanks
Sorry to say thisâŚwhat the @#%$#% are you talking about?
You are going to have to show us something or explain better!
Stacks canât create a subdomain as such, you can only setup a subdomain on your web hosting.
Iâm not sure what yo mean by the different formats but wondering if you have uploaded the RapidWeaver file, yourfilename.rw, instead of publishing your website to your web hosting?
If you wish to view your ongoing designing, get MAMP and set it up so you can view what you build locally. Or you can view it directly in your browser by going File/Preview Page in RW.

Joe, letâs try starting from the beginning. Do not ever respond to me with that nasty attitude. I am using your stack software , which I am not acquainted. I donât have to use RapidWeaver but I like the software. Technically, you need interpersonal skills. Thanks Paul and Anugyan for your responses, I will follow your suggestion.
Thanks
Donât think @joemart1951 makes any software, at least none for RapidWeaver nor RapidWeaver itselfâŚ
You are correctâŚand I didnât mean to offendâŚI was just confused.
Sorry
1st, No one in this thread works for RealMac, weâre all users like you so âIâm using your stack softwareâ is incorrect
2nd, Your initial post made absolutely no sense whatsoever.
- You CANNOT create a subdomain with stacks, you can only do that through the cPanel on your server.
- âthe problem without publishing it remains in the designed format rather than the website formatâ is gibberish.
Joeâs response was correct to my eyes.
Hey Ruby, shame about the bad feeling on here but could you spend a bit more time explaining what has happened because your post really doesnât make sense. Appreciate there may be a language issue - in which case spend a bit more time on describing exactly what you have done. People will be helpful if they understand the question.
Other commentators are correct: a sub domain is literally created on your server and then sits at the beginning of your primary URL followed by a dot. e.g. sales.mybusiness.com where âsalesâ is the subdomain and mybusiness.com is the primary domain.
As well as MAMP and File>Preview, you should also use the âSimulateâ function to see how your site pages look on different devices.
