When I publish my flare project in HTML5 output the search feature does not work. You can type in a word, but no results show up. Did I miss something in the conversion from webhelp to HTML5?

I have inserted the breadcrumbs proxy into my master page. Then I have set my output to that master page; however, the breadcrumbs do not show up when I build the project.

When I apply my master page in html5 output the content does not show up. How do I fix this?
I tried making a new master page and the footer is not fixed/sticky to the bottom of the page, but the content is there.

I'm doing the same thing (OS X 10.6, Parallels 5, Win 7, Flare 6) and also received the error: "This file is not within a project. To open it, select a project to copy it to." On your advice, I copied the whole project folder to top-level C drive and it opened just fine. I just switched to this ...

I use the related topics help control and I thought even if the control contained the current/open page, upon output, that page would not show in the control dialog. For example, I have several topics that have the same related topics help control, and rather than opening each control individually ...

The same thing is happening in my help projects, but I don't have any Word imports/files/topics/nothing. Just a simple WebHelp output. When I open the index explorer, it doesn't show double entries - this is just upon output. If you find a solution, I would love to know!

I rate a topic on the skin (4 out of 5 stars) but when the Topic Ratings box opens, the rating I gave on the skin doesn't stay. I have to re-rate in order to submit (with comments). Is there a way for the rating to stick?

I'm using WebHelp and my users can send a comment along with their rating. However, in Firefox, you can't click inside the comment box to type a comment. But in IE and Opera, you can type and send rating comments without a problem. Any clues?

Ok...strike that. You can type in the box, just the ...

Nevermind. Turns out my CSS is to blame. My developer and I did some fancy hacks to the CSS and we basically told everything to go away and disappear except for a few cases. Fixed.

All my books are linked to the first topic, yet the breadcrumbs still look like "You are here: > Topic 1". Where they should look like "You are here: Book 5 > Topic 1"

I tried unlinking a book, just to test what would happen, and the breadcrumbs in a topic of the unlinked book look like "You are ...

My TOC and MasterPage are associated with my WebHelp target. All but one of my books are linked to a topic. When I'm in a topic in the book that is NOT linked, the breadcrumbs look like this: "You are here: Book 1 > Topic 1"

When I'm in a topic that is in book that is linked, the breadcrumbs look ...

Thanks for the help. I looked at this thread http://forums.madcapsoftware.com/viewtopic.php?t=3795 and then the knowledge base article to figure out how to setup the custom icon. It worked perfectly!

I always place a notepad or lightbulb icon before writing a note or tip. In Flare training, Rob showed us how to do this using styles, so notes/tips are consistent (so they always include the icon), but I do not remember how to do this. Help!
