If you will provide a bit more information we may be able to offer more specific advice. What program did you use to create and publish the webpage initially?

Basically you would just make the changes to your webpage in the program you use and republish the pages you change.

you can use the html editor in the file manager or you can just edit the files via ssh =)

This advice does not sound as if the OP is up to it.

Alan, Rick is correct--you can just make new pages with whatever app you used initially.

"Page.html" (example) is whatever you decide it is--you can upload new versions of page.html any time you want.

Thanks guys for all your prompt responses !

Currently , the website builder i am using is Xsitepro2.

So , basically what i need to do is to use Xsitepro2 to change the content of my website and then republish again?

How long will the republishing take?

just a minute to see the changes. why don't you try to figure it out first? i'm betting if you can do the intial page, you can do a change without the need for much assistance.

I don't know ANYTHING about that software you mention, but if it is anything like a "normal" one, you essentially would keep a copy of your website on your computer, work on it in your program, then upload the latest version of the altered page as soon as you're finished. Then, if you need to make a NEW change, you simply open the page or pages you wish to alter, make your changes, then upload JUST those pages that were altered.

That is as basic as I can make it! You've had good answers, I just wanted to make a nutshell for you just in case you need it.

Hi guys.

I have tried using my website builder ( i.e Xsitepro2 ) to rebuild the website and then republish again . However, up to now ( 4 days after my publishing ), the contents of my new website have not been published.

Any ideas why is it taking so long?

Grateful to anyone who can clear my doubt

Cheers !
