I have a website that was produced in frontpage navigation. I went in to
change the name of one of the buttons from "Related Articles" to "Newsletter
Archive" and the results were less than satisfactory. The only way I can
aptly describe the problem, is by referring to my site which is
www.aim2health.com. As you navigate to various pages, keep an eye on the top
buttons. The "Newsletter Archive" button does not remain stable on each
page. Can anyone explain a possible solution short of redoing the whole
thing? Thanks!!!!
 
You did more than change the name, you linked it to a new page or
changed the name of the old page. FP is not my native language but I'm
going to take a wild guess and say you did some or all of this behind
FP's back outside an open FP web and didn't allow FP to recalculate
links. No site manager could handle those types of goings on. It can't
manage what it doesn't know about.
 
You're going to have to ask the people that belong here. No hablo FP muy
bien. But the others do and their track record for helping others looks
pretty good to me.
 
Try...
Open FP
File | Open Site (the one on your machine)
Tools | Recalculate Hyperlinks
then Re-Publish your web to the online server.

if that doesn't work try the same on the server - open the web on the server
with FP and recalculate hyperllinks


| Hey Chris, Sounds like a mess! Know how I can fix this? thanks,

Hi Rob,

I tried the first part of your instructions and nothing changed. I'd like
to try the next part of openning the web on the server with FP and
recalculate hyperllinks but I'm not sure how to do this. Thanks!!
 
The instruction are the same for opening the live/remote site in FP, just enter the path as
http://www.yourdomainname.com
