Hello, my url is stephaniecousin.com. I just built a new site with Indexhibit. I would like to create a link to my old website. Where can I put the whole files in the ftp server? And how do I have to proceed? Thank you in adavance for answering.

I'm not sure what you mean by whole files.
You can make subfolders and place your files/folders there.
Then you can create Exhibit links (and not exhibits) which use an iframe (iframe set to On) to show external pages.

Sorry for my strange english.... actually I ment with "whole file" all the files of my old website. Where exactly do I have to place this subfolder of my old website in the ftp? And what is an iframe? Thanks

make a folder in your root directory and name it something like "old_site".
Move all your files and folders of your old site to that folder.
Keep in mind that depending on the kind of the old site (a blog for example) you may need to update certain things...

Once you have the old site in that subfolder (stephaniecousin.com/old_site/) you can create an exhibit link from the Create link in indexhibit.
Once you create it you can set the iframe setting to On.
This means that the old site is going to appear in the exhibit area of your Indexhibit site.
