Dreamweaver CS5 and Wordpress

I have been banging my head against a wall for quite a few days now, and desperately need some help.
I have been creating a theme in WordPress using Dreamweaver CS5 and MAMP. All is going fine when suddenly my theme disappears in DW. I can still see the page from WordPess admin, but there are no dynamic links and no content within Dreamweaver.
Any help would be great!
Cheers

Help please

Dreamweaver and Wordpress compatibility

Hi,
I'm not familiar with this community so hopefully this is the appropriate venue for this question.
I am an old school coder and have switched to using wordpress for my health website/ blog ( http://doctorscotthealth.com ). I'm struggling to create the design elements and personalizations I'm envisioning. I am frustrated with some of the limitations. Can Dreamweaver help updating wordpress templates by accessing and manipulating the php scripts? or is Dreamweaver strictly for writing standard html/css pages? Does it work with php I guess? Is there any teamwork that can be acheived with the two frameworks?
If so are there are any recommended tutorials?

You certainly can use Dreamweaver to code a custom template/theme for WordPress, but you're going to need to have strong php coding skills. I recommend you spend a lot of time with the tutorials and forums over at WordPress which can guide you through some of the process. You'll also need to set up a "local host" on your computer in order to test your code. (Google local host, WAMP or XAMPP or MAMP for more info; there are also a number of threads here about setting up a local host, so search here as well.)
I don't know if Pinboard is a free or premium theme (the one you've currently selected for your site), but if you are not strong in coding php, you might have an easier time finding a good, well-documented premium theme that meets your needs. You'll be able to do some customization, but all the heavy lifting will have been coded for you.

Confused With Dreamweaver CC and the CSS Styles Panel!

Hi all
I'm relativley new to the CC but I'm having alot of fun learning how to use dreamweaver, But now comes where I get confused. I'm learning from Lynda.com "Dreamweaver and WordPres Core Concepts" and as I follow the tutorial regarding the actual structure of wordpress themes I have different panels to the tutour.
As you can see from the pics I have a different set up and this makes it very hard to follow the tutour.
I have tried the windows menu but there is no CSS Style Panel, plus I have media, sources, selectors, and properties. Apparently the tutour is also usin CC.
Can someone please guide me on how to learn dreamweaver with up to date tutourials....

I'm not familiar with the Dreamweaver/WordPress videos on lynda.com, but if the tutorials are showing the CSS Styles panel, it means that it was recorded on Dreamweaver CS6 or earlier.
The CSS Designer panel replaces the old CSS Styles panel in DW CC. Since you have access to lynda.com, I suggest that you take a look at James Williamson's CSS Designer overview in Dreamweaver CC Essential Training.

CS5.5 and WordPress Multisite

So, I upgraded from my CS4 to CS5.5 last week. I've extremely excited about the Live View / Inspector aspect of editing my php and WordPress projects. I'm running this on a suped up win 7 box. I deleted/uninstalled my old xampp setup and downloaded a new one. I'm going to have a Solr search engine for a WordPress Multisite blog/directory when I'm all done. So, I spent the time to also set up tomcat and get an instance of Solr running on my local machine. (not that this is important, but shows I'm not a complete beginner).
I've followed the tutorials on setting up WordPress to be able to do the testing server, live view and editing. Everything works fine on a new single blog install (I started a brand new one just to check and to do the Lynda.com tutorials, which are working just fine.) But, when I go to the Multisite Sub-Blog and set up the discovery of the related links DW gives me a whopping 4 files that are linked. I can follow the links on the live view pages, but the dynamic linking files are not showing up in the top toolbar? I can't jump over to the header.php file and then back to the index.php file, because they are not finding all of the linking php files.
As, I mentioned, it's a multisite only problem, becuase it's working on a single blog install just fine. I thought maybe it was because of the addressing, the testing folder was different from the root website. So, I edited the vhosts.conf file and hosts file to add a specific testing domain name and there was no change except that I don't get the error anymore when I set up the testing server that the site url of "/" doesn't match the one I had that was "/mydirectory/".
This was an older site that was set up in Dreamweaver that I just kept changing all of the local testing environment stuff, but the link to the remote server was still active. So, I thought that might be causing the trouble because it was going out to that server to try to follow some of the dynamically linked pages. So, I completely deleted everything and started over with a fresh Site with just the Testing server set up, fresh wordpress, fresh evreything. I am able to discover the related links in the file right up to when I turn on multisite in a sub-directory install and the whole discovery of related links wigs out.
If you look at the http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network I checked the dynamic links at each step. It worked turning on Multisite and going to network setup, but as soon as I entered the code in the wp-config.php file for defining a multisite and added the .htaccess file then the whole thing breaks.
I'm sure it has to do with how the path is loaded somehow dynamically, but as many people that there are running this combo, of Dreamweaver 5.5 and trying to work on Wordpress, and maybe a Multisite install since it's so much easier in 3.0+ I was surprised that there was nothing on the web about this issue.
Thanks for any help upfront.
Jerry

The WordPress Multisite does use mod rewrite in .htaccess. The contents of that are found in the link I provided on setting up a WordPress Multisite install found at WordPress.org. As each of the sub-blogs require the use of elements and data from the main site and structure to draw the pages I do not think that setting up each sub-blog as it’s own site definition would work. It would still have issues finding the relating files. I guess, if someone figured out how to use Dreamweaver on a blog hosted at wordpress.com to edit themes and such that would probably flow to solving this issue as well.
Since this is on a Development XAMPP server on my own machine, if I put the .htaccess code in my httpd.conf file instead would that make a difference? Or is it the mod rewrite that is the issue no matter where it resides?
I basically decided to set up each sub-blog as a completely separate “site” for now since all I’m sync’ing is the theme folders anyways at that point and all I was truly after was the Live View / Inspector for making the layout changes. When I did that though and activated all the plugins that I’m using I noticed some issues with file discovery as well. I saw in one of the tutorials that there was a way to link a style.css file manually for “design” prior to uploading the site. Is there anything inside of Dreamweaver that would allow us to manually add the necessary php file for the finder. I’m pretty sure that it’s getting stuck at the line that is saying (dirname(__FILE__) . “wp-load.php” or something like that (off the top of my head). Once that relative file would be found my guess is that it would discover all the other ones? Or there is an issue with the ABSPATH variable being set early on in the WordPress installation.
At this point I’ve tried a dozen different ways to get this to work and it’s obviously broken. Since it’s so prevalent (I think a lot of the posts I read had this also as a multisite drupal/joomla issue as well) that it would be something worth figuring out how to provide a work around.

Dreamweaver CC causes wordpress localhost to show a blank page

I have wordpress set up using WAMP as the local server and it has been working with no problem. Win7 64 bit.
I have just installed Dreamweaver CC and set up testing sites using HTTP://localsite/sitename for several 'normal' website I manage and that was fine i could see them in live view.
I then added a local test site to view the website I manage under wordpress and when I went to live view all i could see was a blank page.
I then closed dreamweaver and just opened my local wordpress site using HTTP://localhost/wordpress and that too just showed a blank page.
I have no problem getting into my wordpress site via the local dashboard but cannot view any of the pages.
I searched the web and tried lots of workarounds but nothing worked. in the end i uninstalled worpress, deleted the wp databse and reinstalled everything with no problem.
Localhost was working with wrodpress again. However as soon as I tried to access the local wordpress site with dreamweaver the problem returned.
This is very frustrating as recreating a wordpress site is not as simple as just copying a load of HTML and PHP pages.
I should add there are no errors shown.
Anyone any ideas?

Hi Nancy,
thanks for taking the time to reply but unfortunately it does not help.
I have my wordpress files and themes in the correct directories for WAMP. I have been using WAMP to test my wordpress site for some time but opening up the PHP files in brackets to write the code. I have several non wordpress websites I maintain which are written in normal HTML, PHP and CSS and I like to code manually. It is useful tough to write the code in Brackets / Dreamweaver to check syntax and adjust the CSS on the fly.
Everything was working fine until I installed dreamweaver and set up a testing site as you indicate above and now all I get is a blank page not only in live view in dreamweaver but also if I simply type HTTP://loclahost/worpress directly into a browser window. There are no error meesages though not even a 404 'NOT Found' message, just a blank page. I can get into the dashborad though by typing http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/ and all my pages and content is there but if I try to view a page all i get is the same blank page.
As I said I said I totally unistalled wordpress including the database and reinstalled and all worked fine. I could see the site using http://localhost/wordpress/ but as soon as I set up a testing server in dreamweaver the problem returned. Dreamweaver must be altering something in the wordpress files / database to cause this problem.
Has no on else come across this?

Unfortunately I can't help you. But if it's any consolation, you are not alone. I am suffering from same symptom except it happens with any dynamic site I need to work on. And it doesn't matter whether the sites are local or remote.
I am running Windows 7 64bit as well in both of my machines, desktop (AMD) and laptop (Intel), and this happens on both of them and with any dynamic site, Joomla! for instance.

Dreamweaver CS5 and ascx pages

I was wondering...I have a website that is using DotNetNuke whick works with a lot of ascx files. I wanted to be able to preview my ascx page through dreamweaver like you do with php and wordpress. It is not allowing me to do this. I have set up the test server and all and still it sends an error message saying something about it might be the ascx extension. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong or is Dreamweaver just not able to preview ascx pages like it can php?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks.

CS5 has no suppoert for .Net. So DW will not render .Net pages in any way. Traditional VBScript based ASP, yes, but .Net, no.

What is the diffrence between map and map.entry in core java

what is the diffrence between map and map.entry in core java . where it will be use ful. any one give one example plz.

A Map contains Map.Entry's

        Map map = new LinkedHashMap(8);
        map.put(new Integer(1), "one");
        map.put(new Integer(2), "two");
        final Iterator iterator = map.entrySet().iterator();
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {
            Map.Entry entry = (Map.Entry) iterator.next();

'''Safe Mode'''
You may need to use '''[[Safe Mode]]''' (click on "Safe Mode" and read) to localize the problem. Firefox Safe Mode is a diagnostic mode that disables Extensions and some other features of Firefox. If you are using a theme, switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes '''before''' starting Safe Mode. When entering Safe Mode, do not check any items on the entry window, just click "Continue in Safe Mode". Test to see if the problem you are experiencing is corrected.
See:
'''[[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]'''
'''[[Troubleshooting plugins]]'''
'''[[Basic Troubleshooting]]'''
If the problem does not occur in Safe-mode then disable all of your Extensions and Plug-ins and then try to find which is causing it by enabling '''one at a time''' until the problem reappears. '''You MUST close and restart Firefox after EACH change''' via File > Restart Firefox (on Mac: Firefox > Quit). You can use "Disable all add-ons" on the Safe mode start window.

Dreamweaver 8 and keystroke issues

I recently installed Dreamweaver 8 along side of Dreamweaver
MX. After the install was complete I tried to use Dreamweaver 8 and
found that certain (letter) keys were not reconginzed when I typed
them in the design window. I then tried typing in the code window
and they would not work there either.
Any suggestions?

What OS?

How can I import a non-BC site into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free sites?

I am trying to import one of my non-BC sites into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free WebBasics sites.
When I try to create a new BC site in Dreamweaver CC, it creates a BC template site, and I have unsuccessfully tried to update the files on BC - it won't let me connect.
If I import the site from my portal, I don't get the option of a free site - when I try to upgrade, I get the credit card form asking for payment.
I feel like I'm running around in circles with one foot nailed to the floor.
Any tips?

Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion. I'm exporting the first section now. I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie. I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame? If it can, what size should I select when I export?

Need details on how to move existing website to Dreamweaver CS6 and to Business Catalyst web hosting

Hi All,
     I need assistance with transferring an existing website - imagessays.com - (designed with Dreamweaver CS4) to my Creative Cloud CS6 account - and to web hosting by CS6 Business Catalyst.
   … step-by-step instructions would be most useful. I've got the Dreamweaver CS6 onDemand book, etc., ... I guess I’m just not enough of a geek to work my way through the steps and to get my site back moving ahead online.
    Beyond that, need advice as to how to repair a couple of non-funcitonal links on the site (check out imagessays.com to see a couple of pics that don't work). I'm looking forward to uploading more content and to do major upgrade to the site, but am unable to do so ... need technical support re how to do these simple (should be) things.
    Since setting up the website over 5 years ago, I have migrated from Dreamweaver CS3 to CS4 .... and now to CS6 ... and from a Dell XPS 450 running Windows XP to a Mac Pro desktop running Mac OS X.
These changes of version / machine / OS have separated me from the ability to do the one simple thing that I need to do with this straightforward website, that is: upload new pitchers and writins .
I look forward to assistance and support for this.
Thanks,
Jim
