          Vodahost is a hosting company and you pay them for this service. VH gives a free BlueVoda to its customers as a free gift. BV only works with VH servers. You cannot publish on any servers other than Vodahost servers. That means you must have an account with VH before you can publish. You also need a domain first.

              Yes you can Dimitri. All the help is here: http://www.vodahost.com/

              You can also contact Customer support to help you in this regard.
              Depending on your domain extension, you can transfer your domain to VH or you can point to their servers.

                      Hi Phil, thanks for the reply. To answer your question, yes I have a hosting account. I have not published the site yet as I am still working on it. I am completely new to building websites.
                      To preview my work, I thought that all I had to do was click the "Preview" button in the BV toolbar. Am I wrong?

                      Kind Regards

                        Hi Albumin40,

                        You are correct by clicking the Preview button, but click on the down arrow on the button and you will see that you can add more browsers such as Firefox (must be installed first of course).

                        What is your default browser at the moment? If you have IE, you might be prompted that pop ups are blocked. This is a security measure and you just have to allow the popups.

                        Also note that you can only preview the page you are busy with. You cannot (in preview mode) navigate to other pages on your pc as the links are linking to pages on the internet for when they are published.

                        With the above in mind, are you able to preview by now?
                        Bless you
                        Tom

                          Ah, this sounds like the answer. I use Firefox as my browser. Im sure if I follow your instructions things will work.

                          Very many thanks and kind regards

                          Colin
