Let&#8217;s discuss each of these features, and how you can continue to utilize them.<\/p>\n<h5>\u00a0iWeb Publishing<\/h5>\n<p>A common mistake made by many iWeb users is thinking that because MobileMe is being discontinued, it means they can no longer use iWeb. This couldn&#8217;t be further from the truth. You will still be able to use iWeb to build your website for the foreseeable future. As a matter of fact, it is recommended that you continue to do so. There is no reason right now for there to be any panic about not being able to use iWeb.<\/p>\n<p>So what do you need to do in order to continue using iWeb? Well, since MobileMe took care of your publishing before, all you need to do now is find a new place to publish your website to. What this entails is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/webhosting.php\">signing up for hosting with a web host such as RAGE Web Hosting<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>After you have signed up for your account, all you need to do is copy and paste your FTP login details. So instead of publishing to MobileMe from iWeb, you will simply publish to FTP instead, and the information you will use to publish to FTP will be given to you in an email that you will be able to just copy and paste. This only needs to be done once. After the first time, you will be able to click the Publish button like you normally would when updating your site on a frequent basis.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/iweb-ftp-screenshot.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1276\" title=\"iweb ftp screenshot\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/iweb-ftp-screenshot-300x171.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"171\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/iweb-ftp-screenshot-300x171.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/iweb-ftp-screenshot-1024x586.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/iweb-ftp-screenshot.png 1831w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<h5>Galleries<\/h5>\n<p>MobileMe users who use the gallery feature can still have galleries by following these steps:<\/p>\n<p>First, use iPhoto to create a photo album. When the album is complete,\u00a0 it will show up in the media section of iWeb. Then create an albums page, and simply drag and drop the photo album from the media section over to the albums page in iWeb.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/photo-albums.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1296\" title=\"photo albums\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/photo-albums-300x215.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"215\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/photo-albums-300x215.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/photo-albums-1024x736.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/photo-albums.png 1428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<h5>\u00a0iDisk<\/h5>\n<p>When you sign up for web hosting, you are also given web space to store files of your choice. In order to do this, you can use a free FTP client such as CyberDuck which will allow you to easily drag and drop items from your hard drive onto your server in the cloud.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/cloud-storage.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1301\" title=\"cloud storage\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/cloud-storage-300x261.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/cloud-storage-300x261.png 300w, https:\/\/www.ragesw.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/cloud-storage.png 684w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/center><\/p>\n<p>Another important thing to note is that MobileMe users who were using the password protection feature for their site&#8217;s will no longer have this option once MobileMe is discontinued.
