How do I change my contact information?
You can change your contact information by selecting "Change settings" in the welcome screen, and click "Next", then select "Contact info" on the left hand side.

Is it possible to hide the address of the listing?
Yes, in the "General settings" section, uncheck the "Show listing address in generated webpages" checkbox. Instead of the address, the following text will appear "Listing details".

Can I preview the webpages before uploading them to the Internet?
Absolutely! You may uncheck the "Upload generated files to server automatically" check box in the "General settings" section. After the pages have been generated, you will have a chance to see the generated pages (temporarily saved in your local computer), by clicking on the "Preview locally" button. Then, you can upload these to the Internet instantly by clicking the "Transfer to server" button.

How do I setup Listing Webmaster to automatically publish the webpages to the Internet?
From the welcome screen select "Change settings" and click "Next". The "General settings" section will be shown, then check the "Upload generated files to server automatically". Note: To be able to upload the files to the Internet, you need your "FTP settings" to be properly configured.

Can I use a separate FTP program to publish the files to the Internet?
Yes, if you want to upload the files using a separate FTP program, you can find the generated files in the program folder under another folder named "Output".

What is the best location in the web server for the generated files?
When choosing a location on the web server for the generated files (see"Output folder on server" in the FTP settings section); the best location would be a separate folder (directory) for example "listings", in the root folder of the web server. Note that sometimes depending on the kind of server these files should be placed under a different main folder (such as 'www/listings' or 'html/listings'). Your web hosting company could provide this information.
