Question: I can receive my email but I can't send any, why not?
I can receive my email but I can't send any email, why not?
Solution:
More and more ISP's like Earthlink and MSN among others do not allow using anything but their SMTP servers to send outgoing mail out of their networks.
They do this in order to monitor your email sending habits and in some cases to restrict the amount and volume of mail you can send at one time
In this case what you'll need to do is contact your ISP and ask them what SMTP server you can use to send mail through. Normally when you signup with an ISP they will give you the info to send and receive mail through them.
If you already have an email account setup on your box to use their email just open the account and on the servers tab you will see their SMTP server information. Just put that same information into the account you setup to get your domains mail.

Question: How do I add a link to my Links page?
How do I add a link to my Links page?
Solution:
To Add a New Link Or Banner Link to your site: If adding a banner you will need to have this banner saved on your computer. To do this, go to the banner and right click on it and "save as" to somewhere on your computer where you can find it. Then you will need to upload the banner to your site. To do this you would upload it like you would your product images. Once you have this uploaded, go to "List or Delete Pictures" in your File Utility area. It will pull up a listing of all your images. Now find the banner, then click on "View". This will cause a window to popup with your image(banner) in it. The URL that is in that popup window is your image url. It should be something like this: http://yoursitename.com/fpdb/images/yourimagename.jpg You will need to copy this url(or leave this window open) to place it into your links page(explained below) Now.... To Get to your Links Page admin, you will need to click on the "Configuration Link". When you enter you will see the "Master Store Mode". Click on "Links Page Admin" Click on "Add new link" Under Name: Type the name of the website you are linking to withOUT the http:// and the .com so for me it would be "Prim Mart" Under Site Url: Type the FULL url of the site. For example: http://www.DIYeStores.com Under Description: Type a description of the site. This is NOT needed but helps tell more about the site. Under Banner URL: Paste in the url of the banner here, this is the url I had you copy earlier. You can paste it here (leave blank if you are just adding a text link) Under Out Hits: Type In 1 (this keeps track of how many clicks the link has gotten so you start off with 1) Under Firstordering: Type In the order you want it to show up. So if you want this banner to be at the top type in 11 if you already have 10 banners on there and if you want it to be at the middle, you would type in 5, if you wanted it to be at the end, you would type in 1. OR you can leave this blank and they will be displayed in the order you added them(much easier :-) Then hit Submit! And you should have a link added!

Question: How do I switch from a Temp. website to my Domain
How do I switch from a Temp. website to my Domain
Solution:
If you have completed the setup of your new temporary website and are ready to switch to using your domain, then you will need to change the DNS (domain name servers) on your domain. Before you switch the DNS, be sure that you have everything off your "old" website that you want to keep and save. This includes any emails if you have an email account set up with that website. Next, you will need to log into where you have your domain registered and find where you change the DNS (domain nameservers). You will need to change them to: NS1.PRIMWEB.COM NS2.PRIMWEB.COM If you would like to have any domain email accounts setup, please submit a ticket requesting the email accounts you would like to use.
It will take approx. 12-24 hours for the DNS change to go through. Once the change has taken effect, you will then be able to use your domain name to access your new website. Your admin area will also change and you will no longer use the primweb temp. address to login. You will then use an address like: www.YourDomain.com/store/setup.asp (with YourDomain.com being replaced with your full website domain name)
