How to download the Trellix software and get started :
Notice: Trellix has been acquired by Globalscape, and the free downloads described on this page are not currently available and some of the other Trellix links may not work. A new product to replace Trellix Web 2.7 called CuteSite Builder is under development by Globalscape now. For an update on the new product, you can fill out the form on the Trellix 2.7 Software Educational Discount page and I will update you as I learn more.
The Trellix 2 software is a web development software that is very user friendly. This software is available for purchase in a version that will work for any web host. A free version is available to use for publishing your web site to Tripod.com, which is a free web site host.
First, proceed to the following site and download the Tripod version of Trellix2:
http://www.tripod.lycos.com/build/trellix/
Click on download
Unzip into \program files\trellix2
The Trellix2 setup may prompt you to go to http://www.trellix.com/ to register as a user. There is no charge for this, and it may be necessary in order to access the updates, such as the following. It will also allow you to subscribe to the Trellix newsletter, which will include useful information about updates, etc.
Some additional updated designs are available at this site:
download into the same directory as the Trellix2 program & unzip:
AdditionalDesignsPack1.exe
and
AdditionalDesignsPack2.exe
Also: You will want to download a guided tour from the Trellix web site.
Click on the following logo to go to Trellix.com
Enter the web site by clicking on the graphic of a hand.
Click on the tab entitled "Support"
Scroll to the bottom of the page and find "What's new in Trellix support".
Click on the "Trellix web guided tour downloading"
Proceed to download GuidedTour2.exe into the same directory as the Trellix2 program, and unzip it.
Next, you will want to set up a subdirectory, or folder, to store your web site. For this workshop, please use a directory called "a web teach"
You can go to the Windows Start button first.
Programs
Windows Explorer
Set your cursor on C drive
Click on File
Click on New
Click on Folder
Name the new Folder "a web teach"
As you develop your new web site, be sure to store it in this folder. If you are working on a classroom computer, when you have completed your work, you will want to move the contents of this folder to a floppy disk and take it with you. Be sure that after you have saved your work to a floppy disk, you delete it from the folder on C drive, so no one else will have access to your site or your password, etc.
The Site Builder version of Trelllix is available for free on participating web sites, such as Tripod.com. By using the free hosting service at Tripod, you can use the Tripod version of Site Builder by Trellix for free.
In the past, you can also purchase a full version of Trellix called the publish anywhere version of Trellix 2.7 which can be used to publish to any web site that allows ftp publishing. The publish anywhere version was available from Trellix.com for a price of $69 plus shipping. Trellix has recently been acquired by Globalscape and is being modified to become a Globalscape product. It will soon be offered under the name of CuteSite Builder. To receive any updates on this process as I hear of them, please feel free to use the following reply form.
