Answer In many cases it is necessary to view a website before it goes live.

  1. In a web browser go to www.yourdomain.com:8443. Login and click into the domain.


  2. Click the Site Preview icon under Hosting. This enables the site to be previewed before going live on Live Oaks servers.


Please bear in mind that this only works if you use relative path names in your links (./dir/filename.html). If you use absolute pathnames (http://www.yourdomain.com/dir/filename.html) it will try to link to the live site and you will not be able to test.
