Hi all,
I just purchased a FrontPage template and am using it with FP2003. My
question is probably very basic, but I don't know if what I'm seeing
happening is SOP or is due to something I did inadvertently.
I created a new site on my laptop (Windows XP) this way:
...Opened FP 2000
...Selected File > New
...Selected "More Web site templates.." in the "New" task pane.
...Result: The Web Site Templates dialog box displayed.
...Clicked on the My Templates tab.
...Selected the template I just purchased which displays there.
FP builds a new site...very cool. By default the site is named "mysite"
and is in My Documents/My Webs. In Windows Explorer I renamed "mysite"
to "Test". Then I deleted the newly named Test site and created another
new site. This time FP named the site "mysite2". That's all ok. I
guess FP calls every new site "mysite" and adds incremental numbers to
"mysite" even though you've deleted or renamed the previous one(s).
I decided to follow the same procedure on my desktop machine (Windows
2000). When the first site was created as "mysite", I renamed it to
"Knowledge Authors". I goofed up something on that site and decided to
start over, but now FP is naming the new site I'm trying to create
"Knowledge Authors2".
So finally to the question...what might I have done on the desktop to
make FP name all instances of new web sites "Knowledge Authors" rather
than "mysite" as it does on the laptop. It's certainly possible I did
something a bit differently and don't remember. The only other
difference is that the laptop is using FP2003 on Windows XP while the
desktop is using FP2003 on Windows 2000.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Diane
P.S.
In case you're wondering why I'm creating and renaming sites all over
the place, it's just because the template is new and I was testing out
using it and FP2003 is also new having just upgraded from FP2000.
