Using Frontpage Extensions

Warning: DO NOT install FrontPage Extensions on your account unless you intend to publish your site using Microsoft FrontPage application.

Uninstalling the extensions from the main domain will uninstall the extensions from all subdomains and addon domains. Uninstalling will also remove all .htaccess files in your web root (public_html). You must have the extensions installed on the main domain before they can be installed on any subdomains or addon domains.

Installing or uninstalling FrontPage Extensions will result in the loss of all .htaccess files in your web area. Any directories you have protected with WebProtect will become unprotected until you reprotect them.

Frontpage Extensions allow you to publish your web site using Microsoft Frontpage. These extensions can occasionally become corrupted, so you can uninstall and then reinstall Frontpage Extensions whenever required.

To install Frontpage Extensions:

  1. Click on the Setup Frontpage Extensions button on the home page.
  2. Click on the Install / Reinstall Extensions button.

Uninstalling Frontpage Extensions

If you are having problems publishing your site using Frontpage, the first test is to uninstall and then reinstall your Frontpage Extensions. If you are still having trouble with Frontpage after that, contact your hosting administrator for help.

Note: The password protection on any protected directories will be removed. Refer to Password protect directories for more information about reapplying password protection.

  1. Click on the Setup Frontpage Extensions button on the home page.
