Publishing a Unique Site Using Dreamweaver CS6 and Business Catalyst

What are the steps to publishing a unique site using Business Catalyst with Dreamweaver? By "unique site" I mean not using Business Catalyst templates, but rather my own original site design and directory. Also, does Business Catalyst support flash based sites? I tried to start a new BC site using one of my flash based sites and it wouldn't show up in the preview, but rather resorted to using a layout of one of the BC templates. I can't find any information on how this all works as a Creative Cloud subscriber. For example, you provide "learn more" links from the website seciton on the CreativeCloud default subsriber's page, but when I click on that there is no relative information other than some videos about Muse and Dreamweaver, but nothing on how I can use either of those apps as integrated with publishing sites on Business Catalyst. There is a BC help page: http://helpx.adobe.com/business-catalyst.html?promoid=IMJLB but this is in context of being a BC member, not a Creative Cloud subsriber so all of the information doesn't relate, especially if someone want to publish a unique site using Creative Cloud.

    I got 2 minutes and 25 seconds into this tutorial and the functionality contained in the tutorial simply does not exist on my copy of DW. 
    There are only about 5 modules available and the site admin seems to have about 5% of the functionality listed in the tutorial.

    Which version of CC -- 13, 2014, or 2014.1?  You'll find it under the Help menu > About DW.
    Spry Menus are gone.
    Color is something you add with CSS.

  • Create and send EDM using Adobe MUSE and Business Catalyst.

    There is just one thing missing in my armour as a graphic designer – creating and sending EDMs.
    Given the success of creating websites using Adobe Muse, an EDM functionality would be a fantastic addition to MUSE and Business Catalyst (BC). Imagine this:
    1. I open Adobe Muse.
    2. I select "New EDM"  (instead of "New Site").
    3. I design and build my EDM to spec.
    4. I test my EDM using 'Preview' or a single send to myself.
    5. I publish my EDM to Business Catalyst.
    6. In BC, I review my EDM and add 'FROM NAME', 'FROM EMAIL ADDRESS' and 'SUBJECT'.
    7. I import my database.
    8. I hit SEND!
    After my EDM has gone out, I can review a report in BC - just like any report for a website.
    As a designer that does not know code but can build a website using MUSE - creating an EDM is the one thing I can't personally offer. Using a digital supplier can be expensive and website like Mail Chimp aren't professional enough.
    To the Adobe Muse team, please – for the love of humanity – consider this as viable addition to MUSE. You will save a lot of heart ache and win a lot of hearts.
    Thanks,
    Phil

    Done!

  • Looking into starting a business using creative cloud and business catalyst

    Hi,
    I am just looking for a bit of clarification on a few things. I am looking at using Creative cloud and Business Catalyst for a new business.
    Firstly, if I have both a Mac and a PC, will one creative cloud subscription allow me to install on both?
    Secondly, with Business Catalyst if I am wanting to make more than 5 websites, do I have to use the partner plan? or is this just if I want to make comission? Basically can I pay individually for subscriptions to more than 5 sites on behalf of customers without paying the initial partner fee while I am starting up? Obviously long term the partner option makes sense but short term for start up it would be useful to just sell the adobe subscriptions without earning comission. Hope this makes sense?
    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Thanks
    Adam

    Hi Adam,
    I'm very happy to hear that you want to start a business using BC and Creative Cloud - this is one of the goals of our integration.
    To you first question, yes, you can install Creative Cloud on both your machines.
    To your second question - you don't need to be a paid partner while you're starting up. You can remain a free partner, and just buy supplemental websites from the Partner portal. You're right, you won't get the comission, but it's a pretty good deal anyway.
    If you're starting up, I also strongly recomment the BCGurus "Zero to BC Hero" training program - not only they explain you the BC product, but they also include a lot of great business insights on running a web agency
    Sincerely,
    Alexandru

  • Dreamweaver CS6 öffnet Business Catalyst nicht

    Hallo,
    ich will mit den integrierten Business Catalyst in Dreamweaver CS6 (nicht Creative Cloud!) ein wenig mit den Online-Shop-Feature experimentieren, doch ich kann keine neue Business Catalyst-Site öffnen bzw. erstellen, egal ob aus den normalen Menü "Fenster/Neue Business Catalyst-Site" oder aus den Fenstermenü. Wenn ich es anwähle, kommt ein leerer Bildschirm für einige Sekunden, dann stürzt es ab (Dreamweaver stürzt nicht ab, die Business Catalyst-Site ist das Problem).
    Ich weiß inzwischen nicht mehr, warum mein Dreamweaver den Business Catalyst nicht öffnen will, obwohl das Programm ansonsten in Ordnung ist. Gibt es Möglichkeiten, um das Problem zu beseitigen? Ich kenne mich zwar inzwischen mit Photoshop und Flash Professional einigermaßen aus, bin aber noch bei Dreamweaver neu.
    Hinweis: Der Computer, wo meine Adobe-Sachen laufen, ist ein Windows 7 Professional mit 4GB RAM.

    BC ist CC-only. Ohne aktiven Account wird das nix. Hat sich halt alles geändert...

    Can anyone help please as I have purchased CS6 now and have sites that I need to administer, I have uninstalled cs 5.5 which worked fine.

    There is no need to install the Business Catalyst extension in Dreamweaver CS6. Business Catalyst is incorporated into the program.
    If you're having difficulties logging into BC, I suggest that you post a request for help in the dedicated Business Catalyst forum.

  • 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

  • Placing an Image in Dreamweaver CS6 and Mavericks

    To place an image in a web page, I have always been able to drag the file (say jpeg) from the Macintosh Finder and drop it into the web page.  I'm using Dreamweaver CS6 and it worked fine with Lion, but stopped working with Mavericks.  Can anyone tell me how to turn this capability back on?

    No image is placed.  Nothing blows up.  And I can't find a preference setting to turn this on. It's a mystery to me why this is happening. 
    I write software for the Mac (WildTools) so I'm pretty good at debugging things, but this has be stumped.

  • Adding a search bar when using Muse and Business Catalyst

    Hello and greetings,
    I am creating a site with Adobe muse and Business Catalyst integration for blogs and ecommerce.  I know you can add a search bar using this tutorial from Muse Themes. However, will it search everything created between both Muse and Business Catalyst, or will it only search for Muse created content if inserted in Muse?
    Does anyone know?

    Hello,
    When you create a search option in a Business Catalyst site, it searches everyting in the site, all th contents of the site that is. So, whatever the content of the site is, it will be indexed for searching purposes, provided you used the BC search bar.
    Cheers

  • How can I import a non-BC site into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free sites?

    I am trying to import one of my non-BC sites into BC, using Dreamweaver CC, and then use it as one of my free WebBasics sites.
    When I try to create a new BC site in Dreamweaver CC, it creates a BC template site, and I have unsuccessfully tried to update the files on BC - it won't let me connect.
    If I import the site from my portal, I don't get the option of a free site - when I try to upgrade, I get the credit card form asking for payment.
    I feel like I'm running around in circles with one foot nailed to the floor.
    Any tips?

    Thank you for your quick reply and for clearing up my confusion.  I'm exporting the first section now.  I choose the smallest size, 3x4 but I'd prefer to go higher as this DVD was originally a VHS home movie.  I'm wondering if after three conversions (VHS,->DVD->MPEG) the resolution will be so poor as to not support a larger size frame?  If it can, what size should I select when I export? 

  • Help building an e-commerce site using DreamWeaver MX 2004 and Oracle 10G

    I'm new to using Oracle 10G. After reviewing several rdms's I've picked Oracle 10G as my rdms. I'm trying to build an ecommerce site using DreamWeaver MX 2004 and Oracle 10G. The website will be selling hardware and software products. I have a choice in DreamWeaver to go for a .asp or .jsp setup. I have several questions, here goes:
    1. Is there any book/tutorial/whitepaper out there that describes building an ecommerce site using Oracle 10G/9I/8I? Just some examples as how to make the datamodel regarding the shopping basket etc.
    2. I prefer DreamWeaver as it let's me make nice looking css style based pages without throttling too much through the code. Are there Oracle tools which allow me to make an advanced nice looking ecommerce site?
    I hope some of you can help me get started. Any effort is appreciated.

  • Problems previewing all my sites using Dreamweaver 8 both CF and html.

    I have restored my hard drive (from a previous Ghost image)
    and now encounter problems previewing all my sites using
    Dreamweaver 8 both CF and html.
    If I preview (using localhost:8500) I get the message "Unable
    to connect, Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at
    localhost:8500." IE has similar message.
    If I preview (using 127.0.0.1 instead of localhost:8500) I
    get the page but no images or CSS loads.
    An address such as:
    http://127.0.0.1/CFIDE/gettingstarted/experience/index_content.cfm
    loads just fine - seems CF is working okay.
    All the sites used for testing locally have been used for
    some time (years) and work on my unrestored drive.
    My thoughts: after I restored my hard drive image I installed
    both Norton Antivirus 2007 and resintalled ZoneAlarm. I uninstalled
    both of the programs but the problem remains.
    Any help is much appreciated. I have spent the last two days
    trying to get this to work and as many of you can identify with...I
    am supposed to be working....!

    Hi,
    JSF 1.1 doesn't coexist nicely with HTML components.
    So if your goal is to build layouts in HTML then this
    will not produce the result you want
    Skins in 10.1.3 are slightly different than in 11
    (selectors may have changed their names). If you need
    to specify the class property to make skins work then
    this indicates that the skin selectors you use are
    not the correct ones.
    FrankHi Frank,
    thank you for your help, I'm replacing every html component with adf one, panelGroup, panelHorizontal, panelBorder, objectImage etc... etc... but I have a problem...
    I need to put an object component about Macromedia Flash and I cannot find any adf component to replace it. Any idea please?
    Thank you again.
