NEW! Free Dreamweaver templates WITH Fireworks vector files

I just released some free Dreamweaver templates that include
not only the Dreamweaver template dwt file, but also the original
pre-sliced Fireworks file with all the template graphics.
The templates include the dwt, Fireworks file, pure CSS
menus, are AdSense-ready, XHTML 1.0 valid and are very customizable
through both the Fireworks file and the CSS.
If you use one, let me know so I can get a screenshot and
post a link to your site showing how the templates have been
customized by various designers.
Cheers!
Brodit

Can you post a link to the PHP page, please? This will allow
me to see the
HTML markup on it....

Free Dreamweaver templates related to photography (fullscreen) see 2 example websites?

Hi,
I'm a photographer and I downloaded some Dreamweaver template packs but they are all related to usual corporates, pity enough nothing related to photography.
Can anyone recommend templates or a template pack (freeware) related to photography?
By this I mean almost fullscreen to present the pics as they are supposed to), examples : http://www.haringphotography.com/?splash=1 or http://www.sandernagel.nl/photo/commissioned/portraits_various/374
I have the pictures but not the templates....
I don't know anything about programming, it may be html or other format html5,... (as I heard that other formats will be for the future, just like flash that gets less interesting)
This to relace my more amateurish looking free Wix website
Maybe there are websites with free dreamweaver templates where you can see a picture of the examples ?
Thanks!!!

WordPress is a dynamic site. It needs PHP and a connection to a MySql database to run. Unless you have a local testing server (WAMP or XAMPP) installed on your computer, you won't see local content in your browser.
WordPress consists of 800+ files in 80+ folders. Strangely enough, none of those files are complete pages. They are all just bits of code which the web server assembles and combines with content from the database. In short, there are no real web pages. WordPress is a virtual site; basically a one page site that is created on the fly by the web server. This is a difficult concept for people who are accustomed to working with static HTML pages.
Unless you're a skilled coder, you must not edit the WordPress core files in DW or you will break the site. The only things you can safely edit in Code View are the Theme files:
WP/wp-content/themes/theme_name/page.php
WP/wp-content/themes/theme_name/header.php
WP/wp-content/themes/theme_name/index.php
WP/wp-content/themes/theme_name/footer.php
etc...
http://codex.wordpress.org/Templates
If you're not experienced with code, don't waste time trying to modify your WP theme in DW. Simply install WP on your server and have a go at it...
InMotion and other reputable web hosts have apps to simplify WordPress installation. You can invoke the install wizard by logging in to your server's C-Panel and pressing a button.
Good luck!

Different templates with different datasource files

Hi All,
Can someone tell me how we can have two different templates with different datasource files in one BIP report.
I need PDF template based on one xml file and CSV teamplate based on another in one report.
Thanks.

you can have two data-set or query , and select concatenated data and have a single xml file.
But pdf template will look at those, dataset in the xml, which you want. and CSV will look only on the other dataset.
what method are you using for CSV ?

Speed up Illustrator CC when working with large vector files

Raster (mainly) files up to 350 Mb. run fast in Illustrator CC, while vector files of 10 Mb. are a pain in the *blieb* (eg. zooming & panning). When reading the file it seems to freeze around 95 % for a few minutes. Memory usage goes up to 6 Gb. Processor usage 30 - 50 %.
Are there ways to speed things up while working with large vector files in Illustrator CC?
System:
64 bit Windows 7 enterprise
Memory: 16 Gb
Processor: Intel Xeon 3,7 GHz (8 threads)
Graphics: nVidia Geforce K4000

Files with large amounts vector points will put a strain on the fastest of computers. But any type of speed increase we can get you can save you lots of time.
Delete any unwanted stray points using Select >> Object >> stray points
Optimize performance | Windows
Did you draw this yourself, is the file as clean as can be? Are there any repeated paths underneath your art which do not need to be there from live tracing or stock art sites?
Check the control panel >> programs and features and sort by installed recently and uninstall anything suspicious.
Sorry there will be no short or single answer to this, as per the previous poster using layers effectively, and working in outline mode when possible might the best you can do.

Dreamweaver Template Error: Error reading file (Site Location/info) returned incomplete data

Hello!
I am working on new website we are creating for our company. I have never really had any Dreamweaver template file errors before...so this one has me really stumped! We purchased the site files from Template Monster and I have contacted their tech support, but I have not had much luck with them.
I started out by creating the Dreamweaver template folder that includes the template files that I would like to use. I started creating some pages using the template. I placed all the html pages in the main folder of the website. When I go to update the template to those pages I get the following error: "Error reading file (Site Location\Folder name\Dreamweaver template name) returned incomplete data".
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Any help and advice would be greatly appreciated!
The site is a CSS based site with a Flash navigation menu. Since it is in the production phase, I do not yet have it placed on a server so you can take a look at it at this time (although if really needed and we cannot find an answer, I may be able to get the test site on line - if someone thinks they can help me answer this problem by viewing the site). Right now the site is housed in the same place we house all of the other sites we have produced and all of our other templates on our other websites work just fine. The main difference with this site is that we did purchase files from Template Monster to help speed us along during the construction of the page structures and also this site has a Flash Navigation Menu and a few other Flash elements (something our other sites do not really have).
I am using Abobe Dreamweaver CS5 and Windows 7
Thanks again for taking the time to help find and answer to this problem!

I am curious as to why no one likes them around here.
They have spammed these forums in the past.
The code on their pages is rarely 'best-practice' code.
There are much better choices available.
My co-worker and I have to share the files, since we are editing the site together. The files are not local on our computers, but on the company's f drive that have Novell on it.
This arrangement is a recipe for disaster. The correct way to collaborate on a site with a colleague is with the following setup:
Each of you must have a LOCAL site (local to your workstation)
You would use a single remote location as a staging area, so each of you would have a site definition that specifies your own workstation for the local site, and the same network shared location as the Remote site
You will both need to enable Check In/ Check Out
You will both have to agree to PLAY BY THE RULES!
One (or both) of you will also need to have a second site defined that has the staging server as the local root folder, and would have the PRODUCTION server as the remote site. I'll explain how to use this site soon.
When you use CI/CO, your 'gold-standard files' are on the staging server. To begin working, you would connect to the staging server, and double click on a file, which will a) fetch the file from the staging server to your local site, and b) CHECK OUT the file to you. As long as you have the file checked out, it cannot be edited by your colleague. When you are done with your edit, you would CHECK IN the file (which uploads it to the staging server). It can now be edited by your colleague.
When you add templates to this scenario, things get even more complicated, although manageable. If you ever need to make a change to a template you must use the following procedure:
ALL FILES MUST BE CHECKED IN - this includes both you and your colleague.
One of you would connect with the SECOND SITE, open and edit the template, and save it propagating the changes to all "LOCAL" files (i.e., on the staging server).
Each of you would then need to return to the FIRST SITE, and again check out any files you want to work on.
When changes are done, and files are ready to publish, connect to the SECOND SITE, and upload the files from STAGING to PRODUCTION.
Does that make sense? It's important that it does.
I need to add in one more tab/link to the Flash nav bar.
Using Flash for navigation is a VERY POOR CHOICE, unless you also have redundant, text-based navigation on the pages. By using Flash to navigate, you guarantee: a) your pages will not be spiderable by search engines, b) your pages will not be navigable by iPlatforms, and c) your pages will be inaccessible to anyone browsing with screen assistive devices. Someone is making bad decisions about this site, in my opinion.

Dreamweaver templates not updating *.php file

Hello everyone,
I have been given an exisiting website to update that uses
Dreamweaver templates.
I have made the changes successfully within the content.dwt
file, saved it, and then uploaded both the new content.dwt file and
the related *.htm pages that were linked to it.
After going to the website to double check the new pages I
found a *.php file that uses the same template, content.dwt, but it
never asked to update that particular file.
So, I opened the *.php file in Dreamweaver and tried to apply
changes from the content.dwt file to it using: Templates - Update
current page, but no such luck. Since there is no code at the start
of this file like the other *.htm files how do I "connect" it with
the newly updated template. I tried making a small change on the
content.dwt file so see what files would come up in the "do you
wish to update..." list but for some reason the *.php file is not
there.
Perhaps the answer is fairly obvious to someone who has
worked with Templates a lot but since I have just started working
with templates I still have a large knowledge gap in this area.
Any help would be appreciated.
Many thanks
Mr Zedd

Dreamweaver Templates with Web Gallery

I have built a site in dreamweaver CS4 I have used a Dreamweaver Template for my pages. Rather than clog my pages up with images I used Adobe Bridge to create a web gallery, It created a gallery ok and I saved it to my hard drive. It created two items, a resourses folder and an "index" file. So I I copied and pasted the two items into my Dreamweaver folder I created and called SS_Bridge. I pointed a link I created to point to the "index" file within the SS_Bridge Folder in Dreamweaver, Will this create a problem as there will be two "Index" files within my site
jjrutter

The "home" page index file would be at the root level of the site. Other folders within the root can all have their own index (default) files.

New to dreamweaver, help with mdb

hi I am new to dreamweaver and have some html knowledge but no fancy stuff here. I have setup my website to communicate w/ dreamweaver but my asp pages are not interacting... that is, I cannot see any mdb database info in the "live view." can someone please help w/ all this dns jargon. I've searched google but it's too confusing. i'm sure I can figure this out w/ some help. thanks!

Hi
Live view will not display dynamic server side data.
To view this you will have to set up an asp testing server, see - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/setting_up_asp.html.
If you are just starting can I recommend that you consider using php/mysql in place of asp/mdb (or msql), as the php set-up is much better supported in dreamweaver and on this forum.
For more info on setting-up and using both these set-ups, see - http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/application_development.html.

Some free Dreamweaver Templates for download

I've been designing sites using Dreamweaver for years and finally decided to take a stab at creating some templates. I have two available for download so far and plan on putting more online in the coming weeks. They can be found at http://www.pixelrage.com/ in the downloads section. Please let me know what you think, I'm always open for advice and feedback.
Note: You'll need to add them to your cart and check out, but they are free and registration isn't required.
Thanks and enjoy.

How do I save Icon templates with the Project files?

My project files are stored in a folder, say, "My Documents\LabVIEW\My Project", and this folder, in turn, is saved under (Sub)Version Control. I'd like to include a sub-folder called "Icon Templates" that could contain the icon templates I'm using in this project, but they seem to be "forced" into "My Documents\LabVIEW Data\Icon Templates" (almost the same, but the "owning folder" is different).
Is there any way to change, preferably on a Project-by-Project basis, the default location for Icon Editor templates? I tried to figure this out, and saw that one could change where "3rd Party" templates were stored, but that didn't seem to do anything (maybe because I don't understand the concept of a "3rd Party"?).
An important (to me!) reason to accomplish this is that I want to commit my new icons when I commit the rest of the Project, and have them appear when I checkout the project on another machine (or do an update from the Repository).
Suggestions welcomed ...
Bob Schor

Well, I thought of this as well. I did change Default Data Documents (which seems to be where Icon Editor expects to find its Templates file) to My Documents\LabVIEW (instead of LabVIEW Data), and that worked (sort of). But that still doesn't solve my problem. I have multiple projects -- My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 1, say, and My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 2, and want to have a specific set of icon templates for each stored, say, as Project 1\Icon Templates and Project 2\Icon Templates.
My problem is two-fold. First, there is a setting in Icon Editors, Tools, that seems to be designed to let you designate where your "special" templates are located, which I've set to, for example, My Docs\LabVIEW\Project 1\Icon Templates. However, when using the Icon editor, these templates never appear! It's as though it's still "locked" into the "3rd Party" sub-folder of the parent Icon Templates folder. Second, even if this worked (which it doesn't), is there a way to "embed" this setting as part of Project so that the settings "stay with the Project" (and can thereby be customized)? One important reason to do this is to simplify organizing Projects and folders on disk -- I keep them "together" (use the same structure for both, so a Project is contained, on disk, inside a single set of nested folders), which greatly simplifies and facilitates using Version Control to manage development.
Thanks for the reference. I didn't know about all of the symbolic names. It does appear that they are only used in the VI Search Path entry, correct?

Use Dreamweaver, of course.
Fireworks is a graphics program. It is not designed to
produce robust HTML, much less templates for Dreamweaver.
Fireworks' HTML is for mockup/prototype use only. Use Fireworks to
create your mockups, then your Web site graphics.
Dreamweaver is a heavy-duty Web site design, development, and
production program. Use Dreamweaver to build an HTML page based on
your Fireworks image, then use Dreamweaver's Save as Template
command, making sure to mark areas where you want to be able to
enter/edit content. After that, you can create new pages using your
template.
Good luck!

Dreamweaver edit with Fireworks

I have a website designed using Dreamweaver and Fireworks. I have upgraded to CS3 and now trying to make changes to Dreamweaver file using Fireworks original png file that created the html, is seemingly impossible. I have set the default editor to Fireworks and deleted all other editors showing.... cleared all temp files and restarted machine didn't help with this problem. I keep seeing a "pencil" icon for the editor in Dreamweaver and it wants to go to a program called "PhotoPad" that I didn't even know I had. I even changed the exe program name for photo pad and all I get now is an error that it can't find the program. I still only have Fireworks set as the default for the png file that created it. It seems it wants to change a .jpg slice and I want to go out to fireworks as I always did in the past, edit the png file, click "done" and have it update the html file. Why isn't this possible anymore? and what happened to change it? Thanks for any help.

Thanks for your reply... I guess I thought I made myself so clear but somehow did not. I just got so used to going in Dreamweaver, clicking on a slice and pressing the Fireworks button that when I saw a pencil icon instead... I guess I just "over-thought" the problem.
I did not knowingly bring in PhotoPad, so I am not sure how it got into my system but I am getting rid of it. Here is what had happened. I have worked long enough on files that I do know you can't edit an .html file in Fireworks and that was what was so frustrating because I could not get to the png file even though it was the default editor. My mistake was that I had set the .png file to edit in Fireworks but forgot that the "slices" are .jpg and .gif. So.... when I went back to Dreamweaver and set the editor for those file types to Fireworks... it worked. I opened Fireworks... and then I could choose the .png file that created all those blasted slices, make my changes, and click the "done" button which took me back to Dreamweaver and updated my changes.
Thanks again!

NEW Macbook user - problems with Flashdrive USB file transfer

Hi, I hope someone can help me. I am a new Mac user, I have just started with a macbook and the latest Leopard software. I have a problem in that I save my Word docs (created or worked on with Office for Mac) on a flashdrive/USB pen and then take the pen to college where I work on the word docs on a Windows XP system. When I open the USB drive I have 'ghost' files on there which don't appear on the USB when inserted in the Mac. They are either temporary files of the ones I worked on or are named ._.TemporaryItems and .-.Trashes. So far I have just deleted these. I'm worried that they are required for something on the Mac and although the files aren't large, around 4KB, I don't really want them on the USB incase they damage the other files. I'm working on a huge thesis right now and can't risk any files being damaged. I rang customer support and was told to format the USB, update the Pages software (even though I said I was using Office for Mac) and that there might be a virus on the USB. After all that i still get these same temp files appearing. Can anyone help? I am pretty illiterate with computers so not confident running codes/formatting.
As an aside - does anyone's Macbook cover attract dust over night? Mine attracts a nice grey layer as if by static - weird!

Those additional files are perfectly normal. They are OS X system files... They are typically hidden when you use OS X... but since you are using a format that both Macs and PCs can read, Windows will usually see these files. You can leave them there or delete them... no harm either way.
So far as your dust issue. If you are getting a layer of dust that covers your MacBook overnight... it sounds like you may not be in the best environment. Are you saying you get a layer of dust on your MacBook... but nothing else?
