Existing Website

My company has an existing website that was created in dreamweaver and updated in contribute. I have been asked to overhaul the website and I would like to use Adobe Muse. Can I transfer my hosting provider over to Adobe Muse? I know you cannot edit an existing website in Adobe Muse. In a perfect world I would like to start fresh on the website but continue to use the same website address.

Hi,
Yes you can use the same web site address. If you are hosting it at Bc you will have to re delegate the DNS, this is how you can do that, http://kb.worldsecuresystems.com/000/bc_6.html or else you can export the HTML from Muse and upload on the server via ftp.

How do I update an existing website.

I need to add additional buttons to an existing website.
I just started using flash and am lost.
I want to add a link button and page and all pages are in
mini movie form.
Just need a walk through..
Im not totally computer illiterate.
Please help.

Is the site...

We need a lot more information than that, Kelly. Where is it hosted? Was it originally done in Muse? If so, the easiest way is to get the Muse file from whoever did the site in the first place.

Adding a single page to pre-existing website

I currently have a website running on Amazon S3 and want to add a page to the domain using Muse and do not want to replace the pre-existing website.
Example:
Current web address:
subsite.mywebsite.com
Desired address of Muse-created site:
subsite.mywebsite.com/musesite.html
subsite.mywebsite.com does not need to be modified in any way—my clients just need to be able to access musesite.html via a link using my brand's domain. Can this be accomplished using BusinessCatalyst provided hosting? If so, how can I accomplish this?

Hi Joseph,
You need to create the page in Muse and then export the html to a local folder on your computer and then upload the exported content on the root folder of your existing business catalyst site. You will not be able to use the web forms with this approach.
If you can host the site in a sub directory, then you can create the page in the Muse and then publish directly to a sub-directory on the root, this way you will be able to use the web forms.

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

Need help adding a page to an existing website

Hey guys....I'm, as the subject states, a newbie to Dreamweaver. I am needing to add a page to an existing website. Simple enough...or so it seems...anyway, I went to the site, copied the source coding, went back to Dreamweaver, pasted into the code box, and up pops the page I copied. Great! So then I make my changes so that the page states what I want it to say, link it to what I need to hyperlink it to, then try to upload the page back onto the server....and here's where I get lost...I go to the web to check the site, and the page that I copied and made my own is not there. The link didn't work and the page is nowhere to be found. I don't mind whatsoever telling any of the what the site is (not sure if I can do that here), but any help would be very grateful!!! I'm not sure what I am doing wrong obviously. Many, many thanks in advance for any help you can give me!
Jim

At the moment the link you refer to goes to the file ashby.php
http://www.superiorcareplus.com/ashby.php?s=1
Do you have a page named ashby.php in your site folder?
If you do copy that and make the changes you require. Save it as whisperer.php
Now you need to change the link from ashby.php to whisperer.php
<div class="leftMenu"><a class="menuLeft" href="ashby.php?s=1">Becoming an Alzheimer's Whisperer</a></div>
So it looks like this:
<div class="leftMenu"><a class="menuLeft" href="whisperer.php">Becoming an Alzheimer's Whisperer</a></div>
I'm not sure if it will work because the link has a variable (?s=1) after it but as the links all go to different pages the information probably isn't being fetched from a database. In other words all the pages appear to exist as individual pages. I don't know what 's' the variable refers to.

How do I replace existing website with one created with muse and hosted by business catalyst

My client has a website / URL in use. I have designed a new website using adobe Muse that will replace their existing website, and I would like to use business catalyst to host the new site. What do I need to do to transfer the URL to business catalyst, and post the new site live?

What is the easiest way to put a photo gallery into an existing website?

I am ready to give up. This really can't be this difficult.
Either that or I am the dumbest person in the world. Up until now, I didn't know that I was.
I just want something easy.
I am designing a website using Dreamweaver Cs5.5. I am on a PC with Windows Vista Operating System.
I have an existing website www.metzartonline.com.
On the Gallery page, I want to include a simple photo gallery where I can showcase paintings. I would like a simple (theres that word again) grid that shows the photos as thumbnails. When you click on the thumbnail, it shows the image in a larger size with a small caption.
I've tried using Bridge which was very easy to set up but I'm at a loss on how to integrate that into the webpage. After lots of research, I've come to the conclusion that integrating that into an existing website just insn't that easy to do.
I purchased the Classic Photo Gallery from Flash Development 24 because it was described as "easy to use."
It is not easy to use.
The steb by step guide for one, isn't even written in proper English. I've tried to work with it an I've emailed support several times.
I'm ready to give that up.
I just want to make a simple gallery that I can integrate into an existing website.
Can anyone suggest the easiest program to use?
Please?

You can use Adobe Bridge (it is built into Dreamweaver) and Adobe Fireworks. Once you have Dreamweaver open, go to File and you will see "Browse in Bridge". Adobe Fireworks is a separate program and must be installed to make this work. The instructions below are step by step and I was able to follow them even though I am not overly experienced in Dreamweaver. I created these with Dreamweaver CS4 but the instructions below should work for CS5 as well.
The first address here is to create a photo gallery with the Adobe Output Module which you open in Bridge.
http://help.adobe.com/en_US/Bridge/3.0/WSCF044571-2772-4d28-9EBD-2C9F46AF008A.html
The second address explains how to incorporate the gallery into a Dreamweaver page.
http://foundationphp.com/tutorials/gallery/embed1.php
Here is my wife's website for her art: www.tanglewoodbrushstrokes.com
You may want to look at the galleries there first to see if they are what you are looking for.
There are two disadvantages to these galleries. One is that to add or subract images requires creating a new gallery. The good side is that this can be done fairly quickly once you become accustomed to how they are created. I can do a new one now in a half hour or less. To make it easier, you can go to split screen once you have the new gallery made and substitute the html for the new gallery in place of the old one without recreating your page parameters for the gallery.
Secondly, the galleries created in Fireworks use flash technology so they will not work on Iphones or Ipads. To correct this on my wife's website, I upgraded to CS5.5 in order to use HTML5. I am going through the tutorials for creating HTML5 web pages now. Once I have completed them, I will be re-doing my wife's site. I haven't yet figured out how I will create and install the galleries yet. I have posed a question about albums for HTML5 on this forum. Using HTML5 appears to be more complex than what I have experienced in the past, but we will see.
Hope this helps. Don't get too frustrated when you go through the tutorials above. Take your time and you will be able to figure it out. If I could do it, so can you. I am a 65 year old retiree who only began working with Dreamweaver about three years ago. My work experience was not in the computer field although we bought our first computer, an Apple IIE, in 1980.

Add an existing website to Muse

Hello, I am new to Muse, however, I build sites in Dreamweaver and WordPress so not new to building sites. How do I add an existing website to Muse to work on? Site in question was built by someone and we have access to all the files but not sure how to get the site files into Muse to work on.....??
Thanks much in advance for your help!

Thanks! The only file I see on the server to pull down is muse_manifest.xml.
I checked in all the folders too. See image below.

Transfer an existing Website to Adobe Muse

Hello friends!
I have a new question: It is possible, to transfer an existing website (with all the HTML and CSS documents with the help of the FTP server) to Adobe Muse? Or do I must create all the website again?
Thanks!

Hi Otis--
No, it's not possible, and yes, you'll need to recreate. I suppose the upside is that you should already have all of your assets ready, but I know it's more work, unfortunately. You can't pull in sites built outside of Muse into it, and you can't open up and edit Muse sites outside of Muse (easily, anyway).
Good luck!

How to use rapidweaver on an existing website?

Hello - I realize that this isn't iweb, but close enough. I have an existing website created by a friend(dreamweaver). All of the pages are embedded jpgs with links/anchors to the other pages or files. Is there a way in rapidweaver to update those pages. I have the original files created in photoshop so I can edit them there. I just need a way to take away the old page and replace it with the new.
I have access to my host and such. Many Thanks!!

It's not that you cannot post your question here, it's that we don't really have the answers.
In the other forum they will know what they are doing.
Good luck

How do you embed a gallery into an existing website?

I have an existing website and I would like to embed a Lightroom gallery into that website. I am not sure how to get it on my web page since the code from the gallery puts out an index.html page. The program has everything I want but only if I can put into existing web pages.
I can upload the page and get it to run on its own but that is not what I want. I want it embeded into my existing website. Thanks.

One way to do it is put each gallery in its own subdirectory of your main page (you can use multiple sub galleries) and then have the main page in the root that links to the index.html files in each subdirectory. If your main page is not in the root you have to add the appropriate structure in the return link in the lightroom created gallery "Web or Mail Link" setting.
In the main page the link to my NATURE page would be   ../nature/index.html
Then in the Lightroom created NATURE page you can use the "Contact Info" or "Identity Plate" (This can be graphical as shown on my page)     "Web or Mail Link" setting to return to the main page using      ../index.html
To see and example see my site   http://www.ajaxmtn.com

I need help opening an existing website

I am trying to open an existing website and edit it. When i click get I see a folder and when I open it in local view all I get is the graphics.

Sorry, no I'm not an Adobe employee, (there really aren't many here) I'm just a software user like you.
Look at your site settings...
1. Go to Site > Manage Sites and click the site you are trying to work with
2. Click Edit
3. Under Servers, click the Remote Server
4. Click Edit
5. Under Basic, you should have your FTP address (usually yoursitename.com for GoDaddy, it can sometimes be an IP address with other hosting companies), your username and password, then Root Directory
6. Under Root Directory, make sure you have one of the two /public_html/ or httpdocs/ (call GoDaddy to verify the type of server you are using so you get the right Root)
7. Test the connection
8. If it works, when you connect using the Expanded Files window (with the server on the left and local files on the right) you should see a list of files, including your index.html page, some GD files like formmailer.php and missing.html and all the rest of your current site files.
9 If you see that list, click Get and DW should prompt you with "Get entire site?"
10. Click yes and the entire site will download to your machine. From there open the file locally, edit and upload

How do you edit an existing website in iWeb?

how do you edit an existing website in iWeb?

An existing website as in: editing one which has not previously been uploaded via iWeb?
I don't think you can. With the wysiwyg editing of iWeb, you can create a whole new website, make a new subdomain site or even upload a few extra created pages.
Thing is iWeb will only upload or save what you are making in it, therefore you can upload a whole new website to a domain, or upload them manually with ftp-clients. That also means you can't import an exsisting, for example html, script and edit it.
So in short: for as far as I know, you can't import whole pages into iWeb and edit those, you can only create and upload them.
Or as in: editing one I've already made, and uploaded on the same Mac?
Then simple make the changes you want, and hit the "Publish" button in the far down-left corner of the window. It will then overwrite the site you currently have.
