Why won't my website post

When you go to upload, are you getting any error message or does the upload appear to work?

If there's an error message, it would be best to let us know what you're seeing.

If there's no message, and the upload appears to work correctly but you still can't see it online, that's usually a case of missing, or having the wrong, server root directory defined in your FTP settings.

Your hosting company should have given you 4 pieces of info...

1. The FTP address (either an IP or domain name)
2. Username
3. Password
4. Root Directory (usually htdocs, www or public_html, but could be just about anything)

A test connection without the root folder being entered will usually be successful, however when you upload, the files will be one level above what the public can see.

Another fairly typical "it connects but when I upload nothing shows" issue is accidentally having a redundant root folder locally.

When you upload your site to your server from DW, you should be uploading the contents of your local root (whatever you named it) to the server root (htdocs, www, public_html, whatever your host gave you). If a folder with the server root name also appears in your local files, and you upload, your site would available online at www.yourdomain.com/serverrootfolder.

To fix that issue, you would drag all of the files out of the duplicated server root folder to the local root folder (the top named line in the Files window) and let DW re-write all of your links, then re-upload.

If none of the above fits, we'll need more info to find the issue.
