In FrontPage 2000 and 2002, you can specify which pages you want to publish. By default, files are marked for publishing, but you can change this setting. For example, if you have not finished editing a page but you want to publish your Web site, you can prevent the page from being published by marking it Don't Publish. When you want to publish the file, mark the page Publish.
Certain files should not be published again after you first publish your web. For example, you create a web with a guestbook, and then publish the web. Later, you update your web pages — if you publish all of your files, including the file that records guestbook information, you will save a blank guestbook over the existing one, losing all the information. Other examples include pages with a hit counter; discussion webs; and catalogs (if you are running Index Server).
On the View menu, point to Reports, and then click Publish Status.
The publishing status of all files in the current web is displayed.
Select one or more files, right-click them, click Properties on the shortcut menu, and then click the Workgroup tab.
Do one of the following:
To prevent a file from being published, select the Exclude this file when publishing the rest of the web check box.
To mark a file for publishing, clear the Exclude this file when publishing the rest of the web check box.
Tip: You can right-click the page icon from the Folder List in any view, click Properties on the shortcut menu, and then click the Workgroup tab.
