I just downloaded a trial version of the Visual Site Designer to see if it will do what I need it to do before I make a purchase. I'm trying to publish a test page. Is this option not available to trial users?

Thanks in advance!

Trial versions are FULLY functional. The ONLY limitation is TIME.

Thank you. :) I think I figured it out ....got it published and it said it would be active for 3 days. Then it recommended I sign up for SDrive? I did but I'm not sure what that was. Since I did that, I can't seem to publish or connect to my ftp anymore.

Have you configured your FTP account yet in the software? To do that, go to the Publish Menu > FTP Account Settings. Then once that is done, go to the Publish Menu > Choose a Publishing Destination and select your FTP account and then click Publish.

Thank you, yes, I actually did. I even had it published once and it gave me a message that said this page would be active for 3 days. It then recommended that I obtain an SDrive (i think that's what it was called) account. Well after setting that up, I published it to that and just wasn't sure that's what I wanted since I didn't really know what the SDrive or site was anyway. I then tried to publish to the FTP again and over and over it just gives me an error and says it's unable to connect. I've made sure all the settings are still correct....I'm not sure what's going on with that.

Really though, I'm sure the publishing will work...I just posted another question here: http://www.coffeecup.com/forums/guests- … fb-pages/. (If you'd like to help me out on that one too.) :)

If CoffeeCup will help me do what I need it to, I'll figure out this publishing thing after I purchase and start working with it for real.
Thanks!!

OK, thank you. I can do that. Do you know the answer to my other question? I also posted it last night. It's had lots of views, but no responses. :) Thanks!
