I use freewebs for my site to list the cards that I want and that I have for trade. My site is set up with a home page, want pages for baseball, basketball/hockey and football (one for each) and trade pages for each.
Now here is my problem:
When I edit my site it appears to update; however, when I use the www button to link to my site, it does not have the updated page. This is the first I have noticed this in the many years I've been using freewebs.
I contacted freewebs but they have not been of any help.
I'm not a computer expert, but if anyone can help explain why this is happeneing and walk me through a fix (f there is one), I'd appreciate it.
Anyone else having this problem?
Thanks.

I have done a bunch of updates on my freewebs site over the past week, just double checked it and it looks like all the updates were reflected properly.
 
Thanks for the input.
Are you checking it through the "members" link , i.e. where you go to edit it? Or are you checking it "externally" (i.e. using the www button that appears when you make posts to this site e.g.).

That was EXACTLY the problem!!! I never realized that there was a "publish" button and I had never used it before. My site seemed to automatically updated when I "saved" the edit.
After your suggestion (and my prior response) I went back and found that "publish" button and clicked on it for all of my pages and the problem is solved!
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Yes, I am.
When I click on the "DONE" button, after my update, I get the page as updated. HOWEVER, id I access my site "externally" i.e. by clicking on the www button from one of my posts here, the page has NOT been updated. For example, I just checked my Baseball Wantlists. On the "edit" version it is updated as of March 30, 2011. When I clieck on the site through the www button, the same page is updated as of March 4, 2011.

Are you remembering to publish the pages?

did you publish all pages? If you update more than 1 page you have to publish each seperately or publish all. I actually left freewebs because it was not easy to navigate and went to google pages and they are lot easier.
