Why Aren't My Pages Listed?
|
If you've created a home page that you'd like to add to AOL
Hometown, but the page isn't listed at Step 1 of the Add process, you'll need to make sure you've actually published
or uploaded that page. Only pages that have been uploaded to your AOL Web space
will be listed. Follow this checklist to find your missing pages:
* If you created your home page using 1-2-3 Publish or Easy
Designer, your page is automatically uploaded and published when you click Save.
Saved pages are also automatically added to an AOL Hometown community. If your
page doesn't appear in the list, be sure to click Save when using
1-2-3 Publish or Easy Designer.
