"There are no upgrades." Maybe Magic & Xara share too much and should communicate with each other better? Me knowing (finally) which version I own and which company supposedly supports it means nothing if both companies don't honor that fact. And when I use the Magic website to contact "technical support" I get an answer but the "tech" adds, "you should contact Magic tech support for your answer." Make no mistake, I am licensed for " Xara Designer Pro X 18.2 DL 圆4 Aug 11 2021," and I've told Xara many times - but I still get those Xara popups when I open my Magic version, and apparently it's Xara suggesting I "upgrade" or "renew" my license because when I click my Magic version to upgrade I'm messaged. Sometimes both versions (x and +) are mentioned in the same paragraph. When I search "Magic" I get the Magic webpage with lots of references to Xara and Xara products. Is the bigger number the newest, or is the latest release the newest? Or are different code writers making a slightly different product? Reading their web pages is even more confusing. Even today I don't know which Pro product, (X or +) is the latest rendition. On others, it's called Xara Designer Pro 365. It's odd that Magic sells their application as "Xara Designer Pro X. I did that once and ended up paying for two licenses, "Pro X" and "Pro+." I was even licensed for one of the Web Designer Premium applications, too. I'm the only one who knows because Magic and Xara ignore my please to stop co-mingling information and stop sending popups to renew the service contract for "Xara Designer Pro +." You see, I am licensed for "Xara Designer Pro X 18.2 DL 圆4 Aug 11 2021" and by all accounts, it's the latest version, that is, except for the Xara popups suggesting I upgrade to "Xara Designer Pro - version 21***". You say it's not clear which license I have. Talk about redundant, I purchased a copy of Xara + and then purchased Magic x because both companies kept reminding me to renew or upgrade. I still want to know if the Web Designer manual has more content than the web designer instructions mentioned in the Designer Pro manuals. There is plenty of information there and links to tutorials.Īgreed, buying "Web Designer Pro" would be redundant, but if it has a better manual I would spend fifty-plus dollars just to get the manual dedicated to web development only. There is a forum dedicated to Xara products called TalkGraphics. You should already be doing this to make sure that your site actually looks like you want it to before you go live elsewhere. Look at the part about publishing to Xara.Hosting. Your initial question is answered in the manual under the subject mentioned by John EB, Fast Publish. Obviously, if it's already loaded, you don't need to load it again. If you don't close it, then it will be opened automatically the next time that you load Xara. You can close it in Xara and reopen it at any time. When John EB mentioned to load your project into Web Designer, when you save your project as a XAR (or WEB) file, that is the project. It is still not clear what you are using - XDPX or Web Designer Premium, or both. Getting a separate Web Designer Pro would be redundant. If you have Xara Designer Pro X, that is all you need. Do you know if the manual available to Web Designer licensees are more detailed than the little bit of web creation material in the Xara Designer Pro X manual? If so, do I have to buy a Web Designer license to get the more thorough manual provided "Web Designer Premium" users? Again, thanks, your solution looks Designer Pro X (XDPX) is the combination of the 3 Xara programs - Photo & Graphics Design, Web Designer Premium and Page & Layout Designer. Although they have added many features over the years the videos are nine to twelve years old. So, once I am published and live.and then I want to do an update adding pages or correcting errors, are you saying I need to remove the live website from the host server and download it onto my hard drive? Or do I upgrade my hard drive copy and upload it to the host? Also, when I create a new version number, does that interfere with the search engine spider crawling my site and recognizing it is the same? I take it I'm only creating a version number on my files and not modifying the URL/domain name in any way? Also, one last question, if you will - Xara/Magic has little training information (videos) that are current. When you say, "Load the existing website project into Web Designer." well, my project is already on my hard drive and resides inside the Designer Pro application. Yes, my purchase was through Magic and I'm using Web Designer (as part of the Magic/Xara Designer ProX license.) I'm not sure of part of your language.
