I still use iWeb to update/add to a website I created but have a problem locating the files that iWeb generates.
I find the files from an old generated site under Sites/<site name>, but none of the recently generated pages/files are there.
Using Search in the Finder window does not find any of the recently generated file names.
I need to have all the page files in one directory so I can add StatCounter code to each page.

Finder search (Spotlight) is not very good at finding anything. You might want to try a better search tool: "Find Any File" or "Easy Find".

Thanks, I used Find Any File and it found the old iWeb files but did not find any of the new files I added to the site with iWeb.
I know Apple no longer supports iWeb but states that it should still be useable. I have used it every month to add photos, etc. to pages in the site and everything works as advertised.
The only thing is, I can't fine the actual .html files generated by iWeb.

Any chance they might be in some recent backup you've done??

If "Find Any File" or "Easy Find" as suggested can't find them, then I'd suggest they don't exist and have gone poof somewhere. :Grimmace:
