After reading numerous topics about problems with Website Builder (called later as a "WB") I just think that all that posts should be copressed into one, more visible for admins. The source topics/posts I will find later and add the links to them and credits for persons who found bugs.



Problem/bug no 1:
- Login to the WB admin panel only trough the link inside of 110mb CP with prefilled encoded password - some users reports that they still can not login even when following all the tips - I don't know why and I have no idea what can be wrong.



Problem/bug no 2:
- Changing the login password.
As we all know changing the password from time to time is recommended for safety. BUT if someone is using WB then he can NOT change the password either to WB or to 110mb CP, too. That's right - as users can login to WB admin panel only with prefilled details from 110mb CP, then after changing the password in the 110mb CP they can not login anymore to WB. And inside of WB admin panel there is no possibility to change the password.
What's more - even if user will change back the 110mb CP password to the previous one he still can not login to WB admin panel, he have to recreate the page, all the content is lost.

And there is no warning about this! User is changing the 110mb CP password and don't know at all that he is loosing in the same time access to his website content.
*
* not existant problem - click "Help" link under "Step 2" in 110mb CP. In similar way like adding license for new domains type username and new password.



Problem/bug no 3:
- Using WB on two or three addresses at the same time (ie. subdomain.110mb.com, subdomain.911mb.com, ownextradomain.com) is impossible as there is a message "This copy of Website Builder is licensed for another domain".

I know that this is to protect from using websites created here somewhere else (probably).
But if 110mb allow to use own domains for free AND allow to use .110mb.com and .911mb.com subdomains - why WB is not working on them?
The only way at the moment is to choose one preffered URL when the website is created. But there is no possibility to change the domain later - if user want to change this he have to start creation process again - all the content is lost.

And there is no warning before! Someone is creating the page on 110mb subdomain, adding content etc., then adding own domain and... surprise.
*
* not existant problem - click "Help" link under "Step 2" in 110mb CP.



Problem/bug no 4:
Including html code as a content of the page in WB is problematic.
We all know that if you wanna display html tags as a content you need to change them into html entities. And editor in WB is doing this for you when you will use "Preformatted" format in this editor.

However when user want to edit again the same page - the html code is dissapear! And each time that user want to edit content of the page he have to paste the html code using "Preformatted" format again.



More serious problem I don't remember, every one of them is not important for me at all, but it's important for many users and that's why I am posting this.
Some problems are based only on numerous posts of many users. Some problems are additionally confirmed by me with tests on that WB.


Regards.

I just got hit with "bug #3." 

It would have been helpful to have a notice on the Website Builder page that it would not work properly when I added my extra URL.

Fortunately, I do not plan to stick with the Website Builder and can construct my website without it.

Piotr GRD, thanks a bunch for the comprehensive report.

SiteBuilder, is at it's best right now. If doesn't work for someone, they're out of luck.

Becuase it's code is Zended by it's design company so we can't even modify login code.

So have to wait for them to respond so that users don't see the User/Pass screen. They just login immediately, as is true on box4-11. But not 13-15.
