Dreamweaver online editing CMS

Hi folks!
Im a graphic designer and started creating website using Adobe Dreamweaver CS5.
I bought this powerfull adobe program recently after im a great fan of photoshop, premiere, and after effects.
My problem is:
My clients would like to edit their website easily. As in a cms system kinda way they mean.
But i have NO idea how to do this easily. I digged the web for SO much information and im
really against the wall right now. Why doesnt adobe have a simple plugin that goes along with you webfiles,
so you can edit content online in a easy matter? Im rather disappointed...
This is the website im working on right now:
http://www.thehazeworks.com/powerslave/index.html
For God sake, is there a way for my clients to JUST edit their posts in the NEWS section?
And i really dont feel the need to go through all this Wordpress templates editing/Drupel....adobe contribute stuff.
I really dont. There must be an easier way...fine, if they want to use Wordpress, that totally fine, but ONLY the post section in the news content area.
Not convert my website completely to wordpress...that doesnt make sense.
Shame on you Adobe, for not being too smart with this one...
still love you LOL

The problem with this is that while adobe makes great products that accomodate the novice to the master coder/user, those products are not open software and free for distribution. Contribute I think is part of several "package suits" and used to manage websites, but of course its not free. Therefore the client would need to purchase that program as well to maintain their own site.
You can set up editable regions in your DW pages that allow clients to ONLY be able to edit those particular areas of the page, but I would assume they'd need DW themselves to take advantage of this feature.
Wordpress, and other CMS's like it are designed for clients to manage their own sites and is free to use, modify, and distribute. You can set up and design a wordpress site within dreamweaver just like any project, then have the wp admin set up for the end client so they can edit their content.
I understand your client wants JUST to edit a particular section of their site, and you really dont want to convert the site to a wp site, but I'm not sure there is any other option. There are sites like moonfruit, but you're limited to using their own proprietary templates and servers and cant take it with you if you later decide to move. I've "designed" one of these types sites, and its ok...not really fully customizable as some, but it makes it easy for the end client to manage it, add and delete content, and more.
Your site looks rather simple enough, so that you could use the layout as a template and set up Wordpress to use this template. I guess thats just the nature of our business. customers want more than they are willing to pay for..lol
Sorry I couldnt be of more help.

Has anyone tried to use the Online Edition of Quickbooks and Tiger?

I work from home as an editor. My employer has just set up payroll using the Online Edition of Quickbooks. When I tried to to login I got this message from Quickbooks:
"For business and tech reasons we designed Online Edition specifically to run on Windows. We do not offer an alternative version at this time. Customers have reported using a PC emulator, such as Microsoft's Virtual PC, to run Online Edition on their Macs. This may decrease application performance in terms of speed. We encourage you to research this approach to see whether it will work for you."
Has anyone tried this?
Also, they set up Online Edition to run with Internet Explorer. I use Safari.

i donot know the server he used in his example. All you need is to
replace the server deployment descriptors he used to weblogic descriptors. then rebuild. go to admin tool--localhost:7001/console
and login with weblogic as username and password
then on ejb you can then deploy the ejb.read on the console.

Dreamweaver Help | Edit an existing remote website

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/edit-existing-remote-website.html

There is a program called Beyond Compare that will perform a comparison of local and remote folders via FTP, but it works on Windows only. I don't know if there's a similar program available for Mac OS X.
One way to find the number of items in the public_html folder on the remote server is to log into the site's control panel, and see if you can find the number of items listed there.
Alternatively, select Remote Server in the Dreamweaver Files panel, right-click the public_html folder, and select Synchronize from the context menu. In the dialog box that opens, select Entire [Site name] Site for Synchronize, and set Direction to "Get newer files from remote". Then click Preview.
Because you have such a large number of files, it will take Dreamweaver a long time to get all the information. In fact, you might find it just as quick to create a new site definition in a new folder, and attempt to download the site again.

Dreamweaver site edit and upload not working

I use dreamweaver to edit various websites on two different hosting sites. Since yesterday, I can't upload files to any of these websites. Dreamweaver is running normally when I edit pages in my local directories, but when I try to edit a site or upoad files, it runs very slowly.
I am using windows 8 and Dreamweaver 8 which have worked perfectly together until yesterday.
Any ideas?
Since originally posting this, I have been able to upload files using a different laptop running Windows 7, so I am presuming that my issue relates to an update in windows 8?

Problem in Online Editing

Hi Team,
I have created one html file in the local system and uploaded in to KM. And i tried editing the file online, but i got the below error.
System Error
An Exception Occurred during the program Execution.
Go back and try again.
But in my view there two possibilities this error could have occurred.
1) file is created in the local system, and uploaded to portal
2) That html file is not properly created with html tags ( But it opens when i open the html file in IE).
so, i found one document in help.sap.com (You can only use the HTML editor to edit HTML files that you created online. If you edit an HTML file locally, you will not be able to edit it with the HTML editor later on(From help.sap.com - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/e6/62f8cb7afd764e9600360257202bc1/frameset.htm )
But, after i created the file using HTML Editor in portal, if i try to edit the document locally, then i saved it, after i opens the same document in Online Editing it works fine.
Can any one help, what exactly the problem in editing online and how we can overcome this issue.
Thanks
Best Regards,
Manoj K

Hello Manoj,
I tried the same process of creating file at local system and uploading it in KM documents. When I tried editing that file, I didnt get the error, instead I got the following message.
This HTML file can contain HTML features that the HTML Editor does not support. You may consider editing the source using the Text Editor instead in order to avoid unintended changes that the HTML Editor might cause.
and below the message there were two buttons, HTML editor and Text editor, for editing the document.
It might be because the HTML document created locally are not supported by HTML editor.
you can also check the following link for Mimetype supported in online editing at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a6/181b09bcc7fe4389c8c17d2ad849cc/content.htm
Hope this information is of some use.
PS: HTML file was created using notepad and saved as "test.html".

Disabling document downloads while allowing for online editing.

With IRM I know that you can prevent documents from being downloaded as well as printed, but whenever I do so, it disables the ability to edit the document. Is it an integrated setting where I can only have both or neither? I am not concerned
with people obtaining the data through online editing, but rather just removing the save/download option so it lowers the chance of user error. The people are trained and informed, I just want to limit the chances of sensitive data being accidentally
downloaded.

That should be possible in 2013 with Office Web Apps. This is the guide for Office 365 but I think you can configure the same settings with on premise.
http://www.dotnetmafia.com/blogs/dotnettipoftheday/archive/2013/03/28/configuring-and-using-irm-with-office-365-and-sharepoint-online.aspx
That implies that you should be able to the behaviour so that it's just in OWA...?

Online editing

Hello, I am new to online editing. I will online an HD project ( ProRes compression ) and I would like to know what are the maximum value ( on final cut vectorscope ) of each color ( R,Y,G,Cy,B,Mg ) to be broadcast safe?
Second, is reducing the saturation value with limit effect in the 3 way color-corrector the only way to reduce chroma value?? The broadcast safe filter is not doing it. I don't have any plug-in.
I am using Final Cut Pro 6.0.1
Thanx
PAT

Pat
if you're asking these kind of questions on a internet forum then yu're in way over you're head.
i could give you the specific answers that you looking (no doubt someone will) but it wont really help you
you need to sit down and learn, either with a private tutor, in a proper class, or at least with a good reference book designed to impart the skills you need.
this will get you started: http://www.kenstone.net/fcphomepage/cc_legalfcp4.html
then try something like this: http://www.peachpit.com/store/product.aspx?isbn=0321335481
or even better get and read this: http://www.pearson.ch/Informatik/PeachpitPress/1449/9780321432315/Apple-Pro-Trai ning-Series-Encyclopedia.aspx

Offline/Online Edit for xdcam footage

I am using Sony F3 camera and Sony FS100 footage with final cut 7. Both have different format, One use XDCAM and other use AVCHD. I didn't have any problem transcoding F3 footage in its native form and FS100 footage in Prores LT for offline edit.
I wanted to edit both in proRes LT as offline edit. I was also able to convert both footage in ProRes LT and edit it.
But the problem arised when i was reconforming for online edit. I wanted to connect both as ProRes HQ. My offline footage was able to reconnect with both but for XDCAM it connected to native instead of proRes. Is there way to connect it to ProResHQ?
Thanks in advance

Yeah. Take the native stuff offline. Disconnect the drive the files are on. If they are on the same drive as the HQ...separate them.

How to enable online editing of Adobe Illustrator document on SharePoint 2010 ?

Folks,
I have installed SharePoint 2010 and have enabled CMIS (on SharePoint). Does Adobe products have CMIS enabled as well ? Basically I want to enable online editing of Adobe files (Illustrator) on SharePoint 2010.
Any help or pointers is appreciated.
Thanks
Kulo

On SharePoint 2010, there is a Digital Asset Library where I uploaded images. If I upload a MS-Paint aware images such as jpeg, I can click edit on it directly. I can also save it directly into SharePoint.
How do I do the same for *.ai files ?
I am actually trying to figure out how to integrate the various Adobe products (including Illustrator) with SharePoint 2010 to enable our users to view and edit Adobe files.

Dreamweaver CS6 edits to old Front Page site display in preview browser but NOT on live server site.

Howdy Folks,
My Dreamweaver CS6 edits to old Front Page site changes display in preview browser OK …But will NOT display on live server site.
To anyone who can step up to the microphone and speak “solution” I will be much grateful?

Are you sure you are uploading the pages to the correct location?
Could you post a screen capture of your expanded files window, showing the remote server and local file structures?
I'm guessing they're not identical and that you may be uploading to a redundant root folder.

Dreamweaver to edit wordpress

Hi. I have a elearning company and we use
a. html + css
b. php + mysql
c. embedded flash virtual world
We are thinking about downloading a WORDPRESS theme and I am a little worried about a few things:
a. Is there any problem with using a wordpress theme as my main home page for info. Then I add a url hyperlink to my login.html which has nothing to do with the wordpress theme but is obviously on the same server of my hosting company. It doesn't look like there would be a problem but I have to doublecheck.
Thanks in advance

Basically
1. I want to use this whole wordpress theme as my main website ie: home, and all the other pages. It is so advanced I could never do this in dreamweaver for lack of designing experience more than programming
http://themefuse.com/wp-themes-shop/envison/
2. BUT I have my own site with flash embedded which holds my elearning. I use AS3 + php + mysql for all the databse side of things.
My only question (and I know it sounds stupid) is if I can use the wordpress theme and add a url link on the wordpress theme to my own logi.html and then on to my flash embedded content.
I assume that's an obvious YES basically because any page on the internet can navigate to any other page. But I just wanted to know if there were any issues. My login.html page will have no real relation to the wordpresstheme other than being on the same server and having the link to it.
I will use dreamweaver to edit the wordpress theme and I have been told I need to install wordpress on the server - I take it the hosting company will let me but I will ring on Monday.
Hope I don't sound too neewbie.

Project Online Edit Schedule Permissions

I'm using Sharepoint Groups for Project Online, and for some reason when a user is in the Owners group (full control) of a project, he can edit the schedule, but when I put him in a custom group, Managers (ALSO with full control), Edit schedule is greyed
out. Just for fun I deleted the OOTB owners group in one project now ONLY site collection admins can edit the project schedule. Any help appreciated.

Hi Alex,
If you are using SharePoint Permission Mode, you could not create additional custom group. If you need more management of your user permissions, you could change to Project Permission Mode.

Since the issue is more related to Project online, I’d suggest you also post it on Project Online forum. For your convenience:

Project Online, editing a user/resource: The User Logon Account always displays an error

New Project Online account. I changed the security mode from SharePoint to Project Server but I believe this was happening prior to that change. All resources are selected to be associated to a user account. This happens in both Resource
Center and Manage Users.
Every time I go to edit a resource, the User Authentication section contains the error "Multiple entries matched, please click to resolve.". I am unable to edit the user without first deleting the entry and selecting the same user name again. Only
one user ever comes up in the dropdown options and it always allows me to then save that resource record.
Please advise. I would like to have an answer before I hand this off to the PMO administrator who will be managing resources.

Hello, this is something I believe Microsoft are aware of so I guess will be resolved soon. This affects all tenants, well all tenants I have seen anyway! Paul
