Publishing the Weblog

You’re now ready to publish the weblog. Recall that we’ve set this weblog to publish locally to the directory C:\weblog , or under non-Windows platforms /home/your_user/weblog. When the weblog is published, its directory structure will be created within this directory.

To publish the weblog, click the Publish button. The Publish dialog opens and shows the progress of the publish.


After the publish has completed, click the View Weblog button to open the newly generated weblog in a browser window.

Note: Pressing the Publish button also pings the services you have set up in the weblog properties. For more information on pinging, see the "Pinging Options" section of the User Guide.
