CMS Troubleshooting

Page Layout Irregular

If you have a site that seems to randomly insert a large block of white space between the left-hand menu and the center content, which ends up pushing the main content to the right, then try editing the site's Default pane property for the main "content" and enter a width such as 600.

Values Won't Parse

If you are trying to parse values in a Page Detail and they won't parse, it could be because you have selected a form in the default pane of the website. If you assign a form to the default pane, then that form's Object will be the driving object on every other part of that page, which could interfere with parsing.

Solution: deselect the form on the default pane. If you need to parse values in some way, use XslGenerator instead.

Data Entry Forms Insert/Update Wrong Table

If you have a data entry form on a Page Detail that inexplicably tries to insert/update the wrong table, it could be because you have assigned a form to the default pane; the framework will try to insert into the table associated with that form's object. This is the same problem as described above.

Wrong Individual Is Showing

To ensure one member does not see another's information, be sure to carefully follow the recommendations in Member Directory (eWeb). If you find that the logged-in eWeb User is going to a page and seeing someone else's information, it could be caused by the phenomenon in the linked page.

Site Designer Doesn't Show Site

See EWeb Websites for more information, especially if your iWeb site and your eWeb site have different URLs. In that scenario, you need to edit the Web Site in the CMS module to specify the location of the eWeb site.

Favicon

To configure a favicon, save your favicon.ico in the root directory of your site.

After you do this, your favicon should appear in eWeb. See method 2 on the following page for an explanation of this:
