FrontPage Extensions allow you to use FrontPage to publish to your web to the server. We do not suggest using Front Page as it has a tendency to be buggy. However, if you prefer, we will do our best to help you. Important Notes:- When installing Front Page, it will change the file permissions on your "wwwroot" folder and all of the files inside. We have found that when there are many files (Over 200) in that folder FP might fail when installing. To that end, we suggest enabling FP when the "wwwroot" folder is empty. If you already have files there, download them and remove them from the server first.
- Front page changes the permissions on your "wwwroot" folder. If you are storing and accessing a database or other updateable file that is saved inside the "wwwroot" folder, you will only have Read access to that file and will not be able to write to that database/file using ASP code or the like. You will need to store your database in the DB directory ABOVE the "wwwroot" folder. This is better anyway so your database is not available for download to the general internet public as the "wwwroot" folder is web accessible.
- Don't install Front Page extensions if you use the FTP publishing method in Front Page. Often this will break the Front Page extensions. If you enable FP extensions on your site, we recommend using the default FP method for publishing your site.
To install FrontPage:- Login to the Control Panel
- Click Domains and Select a domain.
- Choose "FrontPage Extensions" from the Domain Menu then click "Install" to install FrontPage Extensions.
- You can then see the username provided to you for FrontPage. By default, the password is set to your control panel password, so you can change this as necessary and click "Save" to save the settings.
To View Your Front Page Username and Password:- Login to the Control Panel

- Assuming you didn't chnage your password, it is the same as your control panel password.
