Once you’re familiar with iWeb and realize how easy it is to create Web sites, you may want to have multiple sites. For example, perhaps you want to have your own site and a Web site for a school or church group, or for different clients. You can create multiple Web sites in iWeb and publish them to your .Mac account all at once, but if you’re not using .Mac or wish to have the second site on another Web server, you need to create separate Domain files, a feature that Apple added in iWeb 1.1.
If you currently have all your Web sites in a single Domain file and want to split them out to separate Domain files, follow these instructions:
Create a separate folder for each of your Web sites. I created a folder in my Documents folder and named it Websites, and then made four new folders within it (Figure 58).
Place a copy of your Domain file (found in your user’s folder in
~/Library/Application Support/iWeb/) in each of the folders created in Step 1.From one of the folders, double-click Domain to open it in iWeb.
In the iWeb Site Organizer, highlight one of the other Web sites, then choose Edit > Delete Site. Repeat until you’re down to the one Web site that you want to store in the folder.
Choose File > Save to save the individual Web site in its folder.
Repeat Step 3 and Step 4 until each folder has one Web site Domain file in it, each file containing only one Web site.
Now that you’ve successfully created a Domain file for each Web site, when you want to edit one of these Web sites, double-click the appropriate Domain file.
