Duplicating Dreamweaver CC site

I found the "Duplicate Site" function in the Site Manager interface but can find little on how to use it. With any program, there are normally some pitfalls to something that looks easy, so can anyone steer me to a learning source on duplication, or better yet, tell me how to do it.
Thanks,
Joe

Duplicate: Creates a copy of an existing site. To duplicate a site, select the site in the site list and click the Duplicate button. The duplicated site appears in the site list with the word “copy” appended to the name of the site. To change the name of the duplicated site, leave the site selected and click the Edit button.
Hope this helps but you can always post a supplementary question to clarify anything in this short paragraph.

How to properly get folders, files into Dreamweaver Defined Site Folder from desktop

I, obviously am a new Dreamweaver user, and I need to know
the proper way of going about getting a folder, files, ect. from my
hard drive into my Dreamweaver defined site folder. I understand
how to insert an image from my hard drive into DW and it shows up
in my site folder in the Files Panel. More specifically, using
Lightbox2, after downloading Lightbox and placing those elements in
a new folder on my hard drive, what is the proper way to get that
folder into my site folder?
Also, how can I properly add images to an images folder in my
site folder in DW for possible later use, without inserting them on
the page. I know by inserting them on the page from a folder on my
hard drive, Dreamweaver prompts me for DW to recognize them. I
would like to know how I can get them in there and DW to recognize
them without actually inserting them on my page.
And can and how can I move files, images, pages from one site
to another? or should I? Thanks, if anyone can help me with these
file moving questions.

To restate courtney's explanation, *anything* that you paste
into the site's
local root folder will appear in DW's File panel, and will be
considered by
DW to be a part of the site.

Dreamweaver templates site authentication support

Dreamweaver templates site authentication support
Hi all, i beginning user with that app, now i´m developing an aplication for my same work this includes a web site with user authentication, at this moment i can create all web pages with authetication but i have diferent user's level access and some templates for any level, i need to add that authentication support to each template, because if i add to the template the restricted access it's not work, i think you understand my situation and sorry for my poor english.
Thanks in Advance

Is it correct that you have to "put" each page sperately? I modified a few of my pages and the only way I could get them to update on my website was to go to each page then go Site - Put, i had to do this for every page i had modified. Also my original issue has been resolved by opening each page allowing the template to update the page and then save then go Site - Put for each and repeat for every page on my site. even though all pages have been created from the same template and when the template is updated i say yes to updating all other pages. Is this how it's meant to work?
Yes.
DW Templates only propagate changes in the non-editable regions of the Template to child pages locally.
Once you've updated all child pages on your local hard drive, you must then upload them all to the web as a separate step.
That's the cumbersome downside to using DW Templates.
I don't use them personally. I prefer Server Side Includes to insert identical content sitewide on websites.

Na ohne genaue Informationen zu den Ordnerstrukturen und wo du das ganze speicherst wird da wohl nix rauskommen. Vermutlich hast du die Seite einfach nur außerhalb deiner Sitedefinition gespeichert oder irgendeinen Link auf eine lokale Datei da drin...

Dreamweaver losing site setups

A couple of months ago after an update Dreamweaver lost all my site setups. I have them all backed up and saved to STE files. I now have to open Dreamweaver, no sites listed in the Site Manager, and import the site I plan to work on. The next time I open DW the site setup is gone. I haven't been able to find any information related to problem via Google or Adobe.
Help...

Before proceeding, please check out this link about the latest release of DWCC update: The 2014 release Of Dreamweaver CC Is Now Live!
Are you seeing Dreamweaver not quitting properly? The site preferences might be getting lost since DW is crashing on quit, and hence they are not getting saved.
Can you try changing any default preference settings, and quit DW to see if it gets remembered the next time you launch the product?
You can launch preferences dialog using Ctrl+U shortcut key.

Is it possible to design an animated navigation bar in Edge Animate CC for use in a Dreamweaver CC site to act as the site's internal navigation? I have my own example for review.

Hi all,
I'm hoping one of you good people can help me with this. I usually try and work out things by myself and is my first time posting as this one really has me stumped. A solution would be fantastic but if I could be given a definitive answer if it can be done or not then at least I can stop wasting my time.
I'm loving Edge Animate as a cross browser alternative to Flash and the complete control I can now have building HTML5 and CSS animations from scratch. I build websites using Dreamweaver CC and wanted to create a bespoke drop down navigation for one of my sites in Edge animate CC to take into Dreamweaver. This I have done and is where I am having problems. The link to the test homepage in question is below with the nag bar made in Edge CC top right.
http://www.elastic-canvas.co.uk/Nick_Scott_Media%202014_Website/index.html
The problem is when setting the link attribute in Edge animate. You have the options of 'link in same window' or 'link in new window'. As it's for an internal navigation system neither seem to be appropriate. If I set it to open in a new window and set the live website address as follows it opens up the new page in a new window where as I want to replace the page. This is an example of the code I used to test if clicking 'sports advertising' would take you beck to the homepage:
// Navigate to a new URL in a new window
// (replace "_blank" with appropriate target attribute)
window.open("http://www.elastic-canvas.co.uk/Nick_Scott_Media%202014_Website/index.html", "_blank");
I ideally want to get into the code and just wrap each nav element with a <a href=""><a> tag. Can this be done and can it be done directly in Edge Animate CC?
Cheers, Matt

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that use CMAK to configure split tunneling on VPN clients, traffic to specified devices can be routed via their own default gateway.
If the manually added route entries all have default metric and interface, clients will select one by the default routing rule, can’t select one of them according to clients’ own conditions. So, I am afraid that CMAK can’t implement the function which you need.
A blog described about How to configure split tunneling on VPN clients using CMAK, for your reference:

Dreamweaver local site root no longer recognized after Leopard installation

Hi, After installing Leopard, my Dreamweaver CS3 local site root is no longer available, although files and folders still exist in it. Any suggestions? Thanks!

You can reconnect the local root folder to the site from within Dreamweaver.

Need help importing Dreamweaver CS4 site to CS6

I created a website for a friend in CS4 some years ago, and pretty much stopped using Dreamweaver. Then I changed computers and upgraded Adobe to CS6. Now she wants a change, but her site no longer appears in Dreamweaver. I neglected to export the settings before upgrading (doh!) Any suggestions? I can't even find the passwords anywhere

What was the original site written in, just plain html? or a server language like php.
When you say you can't find the passwords was the site password protected?

Losing formatting in Dreamweaver CS4 site

Hello all! So frustrated!
I have built the rough design of a site in Dreamweaver CS4 using tables to do a lot of the formatting for a lot of information. For some reason, all of a sudden I have lost all table formatting when the site is viewed in any browser. In addition, I have lost some of my spry menu formatting (background color of menu bar) and hyperlink formatting when viewed online even though absolutely nothing looks wrong to me on the design view. Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
Two examples...they are different as we are still deciding on colors:

All browsers will view html and css errors differently. DW Design View isn't a browser though and typically shows you something other than what will be viewed in the real browsers. You can't rely on it for giving you anything but an approximation of what your site could look like.
Always use Preview In Browser to see your actual page in the various browsers. IE, Firefox, Safari, Chrome and Opera are the minimums I test for on Desktops. I test iOS Safari and Android for mobile by putting everything on a local test server and accessing it via WiFi with a couple of phones (since every emulator I've seen so far has been just as bad as DW's Design View).
HTML and CSS errors are a major cause of display problems/differences between the various browsers/versions/platforms. You should become very familiar with the validators. In addition to the one already given, here is the CSS validator: http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/

Very annoying Dreamweaver multiple sites problem

I have Dreamweaver CS5 running on a Mac version 10.6.8.
I have 7 different/separate sites that I maintain. Let's say I'm working on Site A and I have 4 or 5 pages open in Dreamweaver. Then a request comes in for me to update one of the pages from Site C.
So I use the drop-down menu in Dreamweaver to now switch to Site C. Which is on a different server and completely separate from Site A.
Dreamweaver hates this. It basically slows to a crawl trying to switch to this new site, takes about 2-4 minutes to actually make the switch so I can then see Site C's files. And once Site C is open, if I happen to click on of of Site A's open files, it takes another 2-4 minutes to be able to work on it, because Dreamweaver must be switching back to Site A's server?
But, I have the exact same set-up at home and this does not happen.
And if, before I change to Site C, I close all of Site A's open files, the change is much quicker.
But sometimes I forget to close all the files (and I think this shouldn't be necessary anyway) and am stuck waiting and waiting.
Old versions of Dreamweaver did not do this, that is going on and can I fix it?
Thanks
Steve

Honestly I have Transmit also installed on my computer so if I need to make a quick edit on a file in a second site, I usually just open that file and upload with Transmit so I can keep working. I think you bring up a good point though about Dreamweaver's workflow for a lot of developers. Maybe you should file a Feature Request for this. Maybe it would be helpful to modify the Upload button to have a drop-down arrow next to it as an "Upload To" so that a developer could upload a file to a second site without having to open that site and stop their workflow.

Bc and dreamweaver cs6 site import issues

- issues importing BC sites in Dreamweaver cs6
- manage sites dialog,
- flash loader spinning, "Retrieving site definition..." endlessly.

Thanks Brad. It is happening only for the sites that aren't set up in the manager. the few that are (after a fresh os 10.6.8 install and a fresh cs6 install) are fine. The ones that aren't working are all the rest. So, about 4 that connect and show business catalyst as the "type" in the manager, 1 (my main rebraded partner site) that shows as type "dreamweaver" and then maybe 15 I can't import. The reason for the dreamweaver type is that I used the ftp creds to set it up so that I could use it rather thna letting dreamweaver sniff out the creds and serve up my login cred screen to tie it together. I only did that since I was desperate to edit. It's a workaround.
I spent a long time on chat yesterday with Adobe Support. Deleted prefs, deactivated dreamweaver, restarted, same issues. They filed a support ticket. I'll try to keep this updated if anyone else would like to know. As always, thanks for the help. - T

Publish a Dreamweaver designed Site to a Wordpress hosted Domain

Hi everyone, I'm very new to this, and been relying on some amazing YouTube tutorials out there!
I've come across a slight problem. I brought a domain name using Wordpress.com and have a rough blog there - very messy.
I've since redesigend the entire website on Dreamweaver CS6 (very proud!) and now have come up against a slight problem - I have no idea how to publish it to the domain name.
I've tried installing wordpress and using MAMP, but havn't been able to find a way at all and been unable to find anyone experiance a similar problem - leading me to belive I'm doing something stupid!
Any help would be very much apreciated!

OK it is pretty easy to do.
1) Contact Wordpress.com guys and tell them you want to host a static site somewhere else because they don't allow static sites on their platform; Therefore, they should give the name of your registrar or you could tell us what is your site called so that we can tell you exactly who your registrar is.
2) You need to find another host to upload your site to. There are plenty out there; some are pretty cheap and some are little bit expensive. Some are free and still very good.
3) Ask them or find out yourself by logging into your account,what the DNS is so point to your your site.
4) You now need to log into your registrar's website and enter the dns details for your site.
5) That is it in a nutshell.
I know for sure that wordpress.com WILL NOT ALLOW YOU TO UPLOAD YOUR OWN SITE. They say security risk but it is to do with their set-up.

Dreamweaver Mac Site Backup

Hi,
Basically, I need to completely manually reinstall my Intel
MacBook Pro from scratch. My problem is this: I NEED to find the
Dreamweaver MX 2004 file(s) that store info. about defined sites
(FTP usernames and passwords). I have several sites that I
maintain. I have also stupidly misplaced documentation that has the
passwords for a couple of the servers. Migration Assistant copied
over the info. successfully from my old mac. and I've tried copying
over some files I thought it could be (and testing it on a desktop
mac) but no avail.
So basically I'm asking this:
Does anyone know where the third party file(s) could be
hidden? I'm guessing it's in the User folder somewhere, because
even logged in on a different user (but on the same machine) and
the defined sites aren't there...
Many thanks,
Jay Ashton

Jay,
DW Sites Preferences:
/Users/[username]/Library/Application
Support/Macromedia/Common/7/Sites/Site Prefs
DW General Preferences
/Users/[username]/Library/Preferences/Dreamweaver 7 Prefs
I no longer have that version installed, but you may need to
replace "7"
with "MX 2004".
HTH,

CMS for Dreamweaver designed site

HI, I designed an 8 page website for a friend with dreamweaver cs3 and he would like to access the pages himself to make text changes from his own PC.
Is there a CMS that he can download and use to change text and images on a website desinged with CS3, I see from other discussions Webassist and Cushycms mentioned, but are they suitable for CS3 designs.
Thank you

This should have been discussed & in your contract well BEFORE you began buiding the site. It costs more and requires extra coding to make a CMS site. I hope you plan to bill for all the extra work involved.
#1 find out if your client's server supports PHP & MySql. This will be required for just about any CMS you decide to use.
#2 The CMS you choose will depend on 4 things:
     a) your coding skills,
     b) client's requirements,
     c) your server's programming languages,
     d) project budget.

Dreamweaver CS4 - Site pages disappearing

I have been using Dreamweaver CS4 since it first came out and I've created and maintain over 75 sites on the same hosting service, I also have created and maintain many sites on other hosting services. I just started having a very strange problem. This problem has happened with one site that is hosted with my hosting service (Inmotion Hosting) and one site that is hosted elsewhere. Here is what happened today (this is the site that is NOT hosted with my current hosting company)
I started working on this site last week - all was going fine - simply making some changes to site text and adding new site titles and meta descriptions.
I worked on it yesterday and uploaded a couple of pages - all went fine.
I opened the site today (before I even opened Dreamweaver) and went to the site using the url - home page opened fine - I clicked on the "About Us" page and I got the following error message (just to be clear - this is the same thing that happend last week with a different site):
Not Found
The requested URL /contact_request.html was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
I opened Dreamweaver and looked at the Local / Remote view page and the page I was tring to access was showing on both the Local and Remote sides - this was NOT a page that I worked on yesterday.
I went to Google to try and see if I could find a reason why this would happen, I found one suggestion that I try to Google the site and the page name that I was trying to access and click on that link.
I did that and it worked - I also pressed Ctrl-F5 several times to make sure that I was not accessing a cached version of the page.
I went into Dreamweaver, made a couple of changes to the page, uploaded it and it worked fine.
I tried a few other pages in the site and found that most pages were coming up fine, some pages would give me that same "Not Found" error.
I closed the site, closed FireFox, shut down my computer, restarted everything and tried again - same problem - sometimes some of the pages will just give me a "Not Found" error - not always the same page.
If I go to Google and search the site and then click on that link - the page will open fine.
I tried contacting my hosting company and they told me that it must be a Dreamweaver syncronization issue.
Does anyone have any ideas??

These links are all 404 not found.
