Issue editing template for website

So, I am new to Dreamweaver and constantly baffled about finding solutions to problems on my own.
My issue is this. I have been assigned the duty of updating and modifying our company's webpage. I had nothing to do with the creation of this page, so I am working with someone else's work.
http://www.csus.edu/isr/index.html this is what I'm working on.
My problem had been editing this template that is used on all the other pages. I have a spry menu bar that has all of our menu options. I found a way to add a bar to that, at my company's request. The other edit I made to the page was adding buttons for facebook and twitter. I have updated the file on a local copy, saved it once seeing it worked well in the preview browser, and then replaced the file on the remote server. The template does not change at all. None of my changes are applied whatsoever.
Any idea why this is happening? I have no clue at this point. I have tried everything I could think of.
Do you think it has anything to do with editable regions, or what??? I have no clue
I would appreciate any response at all. Thank You.

Templates don't do anything at the server level. They are a local site management tool in Dreamweaver only.
Update Template.dwt file and save.
When prompted, populate changes to all child pages based on that template.
Upload child pages to your server.
Repeat this each time you edit the Template.

How to edit template for report generator in stimulus profile editor in Veristand 2011?

How to edit template for report generator in stimulus profile editor in veristand 2011?
We are using Veristand 2011.When we run any sequence in stimulus profle editor,we get test results in form of ATML file.
We want to customise the template for this test result generation as per our requirement.
For example:
Test case No.: Description of test case.
Objectives: Explanation of objectives.
Result: Passed/ Failed.
Graph: If any.
Please suggest how to do this.

You cant really change too much in the report, you can customize TRML.xsl which is created every time in the Test Results\UUT 1 folder and that would give you some flexibility on what is shown. I dont know what a xsl is actually able to do in terms of composing data from multiple files (if at all possible) but it definitely allows you to change the visual format of the existing xml data.
Otherwise I modified the xsl to customize the look of the xml report when opened in a browser to have less clutter and some coloring on the Pass/Fail but, the reports are XML files anyway so it's easy to extract data out of them and you can probably write your own report creation tool to compose the report in whatever format you like.

Can I use an alternate Edit template for a WebApp?

Can I use an alternate (backup) Edit template for a WebApp?

Nope! If it is absolutely essential that you have different editable bits of the web app, then you might want to consider splitting your web app into different apps and linking them together with data source.

Editable template for client?

Is there such a thing as to build a template in Illustrator so that the client can change the text on it? Kind of like a Content Management System on a Website?
If so, what would the client be able to use to edit in? Of course, the client would like little to no expense.
Thanks in advance!

Is there such a thing as to build a template in Illustrator...
It's done all the time using Illustrator (or most any other graphics program that can export to PDF) in combination with Acrobat.
1. Draw the artwork in Illustrator (or whatever). Everything except the text that needs to be editable by the end user.
2. Export to PDF.
3. Open in Acrobat Pro.
4. Add text fields.
5. Enable the PDF for Reader Extensions.
The recipient can now simply open the PDF in Reader, edit the text in the fields, and save a copy of the PDF with the edits intact.

How to edit template for report broadcast

Hi,
my client publish the report thru information broadcast in PDF.
The report show the dynamic selection and variable selection information at the top of the report content and they want to remove it as it consume half page for this.
How can go to the report template they are using ? I see it has the company logo on page header so i guess it was already modified somewhere but I don't find this in SPRO...the fields there is blank.

Hi Panadda,
Regretfully, you are correct that they have probably created a copy of one of the standard WAD templates that control the PDF print out - if it was a standard template you could go into the WAD and just do a search on anything starting with 0* and you would see something like QUERY_TEMPLATE_BROADCASTING70 - or one similar.
but what you will need to do now is find that template that is being used - it may be that they altered the standard 0 template - go review that first. If you find that template you will see that it will have some web items that you can change or adjust - this is where you will be able to alter the format.
either remove or filter those web items that you need changed on the PDF file print out.
Thanks, Pete

Non-Dreamweaver templates for Contribute

Are there any guidelines anywhere for creating the equivalent
of Contribute editable/non-editable templates for sections of HTML
pages which were not created by Dreamweaver; for example,
guidelines on the use of  etc.?

Ian,
The Dreamweaver template system works from the standpoint of
a "deny all, allow some" mentality.
Initially a Dreamweaver template file allows no editing to
any sections. When modifying the template in Dreamweaver or any
other text editor, the addition of the begin/end editable pairs
enables the editing of any content existing within the tag pair.
If you want to create a template for use with Contribute
outside of Dreamweaver just create the file with any editable
sections you desire then change the file extension to .dwt and
place it in the "Templates" directory on your CPS managed
webserver. Any files in the "Templates" directory that end with
".dwt" will be loaded on the next startup of the Contribute client.
By default the Publisher and Writer roles allow access to all
templates in the "Templates" directory via the Contribute client.
Also, make sure that the "whatever" text mentioned by Murray
is unique to each individual editable region.
Please note that the Contribute/Dreamweaver template
interaction is *not* a run-time template system. Dreamweaver
templates are design-time templates. If you have sections of the
template that change later then those changes will need to be
applied on a page-by-page basis to each page using a given
template. This functionality is automatically handled within the
Macromedia workflow by using Dreamweaver to download the entire
site then having it update all pages that are based on a given
template.
The piece of the code that denotes which template is assigned
to a given page is as follows:

with an acompanying closing tag of:

The "InstanceBegin" tag should follow the opening html tag
and the "InstanceEnd" tag should precede the closing html tag.
The important piece of the "InstanceBegin" tag is the value
of the "template" attribute. This needs to be the path to the
specific template file relative to the webroot on the server.
Hope this helps.

HT202879 I would like to have a spreadsheet editing software for my new Template Numbers Pro but my operating system is 10.7. Are there other editing software programs (less the 10.9) that can work with this app?

Hi,
I am looking for some editing software for my new Template Numbers Pro. Numbers is 10.9, my computer is only 10.7. What do you suggest?
Thanks,

If it's the "Templates for Numbers Pro" on the Mac App Store then you need OSX 10.7 or later. You'll need iWork '09 or later.
It looks as if you want to use the iOS version of the same templates then you will need the latest Numbers there. And if you use the latest Numbers there and want to sync to the Mac, you'll need to have Mavericks and Numbers 3.

Can enable a site template for subsites via editing webtemp.xml but how do I change in my solution files?

I have a template wsp that I deploy then create a new top level site. The template is available perfectly.
I then try to create a subsite and the template isn't available. So I went to .../14/TEMPLATE/1033/XML/WEBTEMP.XML
I added in my template...
<Template Name="MYTEMPLATE" SetupPath="SiteTemplates\MyTemplate" ID="202">
<Configuration ID="0" Title="My Site Title" Hidden="FALSE" ImageUrl="" Description="A site I created."></Configuration>
</Template>
Now after an IIS reset the templates show under the "Custom" tab perfectly.
BUT the question is what file do I change in my actual solution files before I package everything up? What would add this to the webtemp.xml automatically for me when my solution is deployed?
Thanks,

The terminology is confusing, but what you are actually adding is a "Site Definition". Site Templates are .wsp files that can be saved as a snapshot of an existing site for re-use. These .wsp files are stored in the site template gallery of a
site collection. There are also Web Templates that are similar to Site Definitions since they use an ONET.XML file, but they are activated using a Feature. Together Site Definitions, Site Templates, and Web Templates are known as Site Templates
in the User Interface. But each one is deployed and activated differently. Site Devfinitions are normally added to the environment by using Module features to deploy the site definition in its own subdirectory where the other site definitions are
stored. A custom webtemp file is also deployed instead of editing the existing file. SahrePoint will pick up any file that is stored in that location that starts with webtemp and ends in .xml. So you can deploy a new webtemp file called Webtemp_custom.xml.
If you are actually deploying a site template then you just upload it to the site template gallery of the site collection. If you still aren't seeing it in the custom tab then its probably because the root site has restricted the available site templates
for creating subsites. This is common in Publishing sites, but can be done in any site. In Publishing sites there is a link on the site settings page that you can use to select what site templates are available to create sub sites. In non-publishing
sites it requires powershell

How to Lock particular template for user editing.

Hi Gurus,
we have some templates created on top of infoset querrys to display the output in specific format. I want to lock particular templates for user modification. That means when the user is trying to change the template layout and try to save with the same name it should not allow to do that. if the user wants in another name then it must allow the user to do that.
How can i achieve that.
Thanks in Advance.
Appreciate your help.

Use a naming convention on templates with a particular prefix, ie ZCORP***. Then create an authorization object that specifies that templates with the prefix ZCORP cannot be changed or deleted. The user will be able to changed and save under a different name, but not the same one.
Thanks for any points assigned.

ID=3 (2 pages)
1/2, 2/2

Any help appreciated.

Simple question.. Does your posting deal with an APEX issue or a BI Publisher issue? The posting you have deals with the RTF add-on for Word that builds report layouts for BI Publisher. I suggested in my response that you move it to a more relevant forum..
If you feel that me alerting you to the fact your are VIOLATING forum policy is an issue, please feel free to ask others their view.. (posting to a 3 year old closed thread, creating MULTIPLE threads for a single issue..) You do NOT seem to get the idea that posting this in the Bi Publisher support forum would probably get you a BETTER response than here.. Asking pl/sql questions here will also get people to refer your questions to the PL/Sql Support forum..
Also, here is a POSSIBLE answer from the BI Publisher Forum: http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=594805

Using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog

I have a site which was created in Adobe Muse and is hosted on Business Catalyst.
I have created both a desktop and a phone versions of the site.
I want to know how I can integrate the blogs that I currently have on the desktop site with the phone version that I just did, using different templates for the desktop and phone versions of the same blog. This is in order to ensure that visitors to the blogs on the website are directed to the templates that render correctly for the devices they are using.
My current approach has been to create both a desktop and phone versions of the blogs. The problem with this however, is that the dates are different and the comments are separated between the two blog versions!
I have also tried enabling mobile templates in BC, but still couldn't find a way to specify the mobile versions of the templates for the same blog?
To recap my problem, I basically need a solution where the same blog uses different templates for desktop and mobile (both templates use different navigation headings and menu styles)
Thanks.

There can be few reason for this, including page contents links or contents used in phone/tablet version.
Please provide the site url , also try to publish the site as a trial site in Business Catalyst with all layouts which would help to isolate the issue.
Thanks,
Sanjit
