Sharepoint & Dreamweaver

Are the previous versions of Dreamweaver, or even the CS3
version work wiht Sharepoint?

You're probably better off using one of the Microsoft
products to edit
SharePoint web sites. Dreamweaver doesn't do well with .NET
applications,
and, if memory serves, the latest Microsoft products are
designed
specifically for editing SharePoint sites.

Dreamweaver support for Sharepoint templates

I'm trying to edit an existing Sharepoint (bootstrap) template in Dreamweaver.
while editing the sharepoint template I don't get to see the result in the website, because Dreamweaver seems to make a .temp file of the original template, which doesn't show in the website. I already turned off the option preview temp file in browser. But this doesn't resolve my problem.
When opening the original page in Dreamwaever, the programm seems to generate additional white-spaces all over the page. Is there a possibilty to get rid of this whitespacing?
This also seems to disturb the page to be shown in the browser

Maybe this will help http://blogs.technet.com/b/speschka/archive/2012/07/27/using-dreamweaver-and-design-manage r-with-sharepoint-2013.aspx

Dreamweaver / Sharepoint Developer NIGHTMARE

I am a long time Dreamweaver user and love using it for all
my web design work. Our workplace is talking about making a
transition to Sharepoint for all our web sites on post. Even though
I find it hard to believe they will be able to rid the entire
network of servers of all normal HTML coded web pages and go
exclusively to Sharepoint I figured that I better look at
Sharepoint to get an idea of what I am up against.
Just when I was making headway redesigning my new department
external website using Dreamweaver I made the mistake of installing
Sharepoint Developer to see what the buzz was about. Since I was in
the middle of working on the site, after downloading and running
the trial version of Sharepoint Developer I declined the restart to
complete the installation opting to check it out later when I was
done editing. While editing and creating new buttons for the site I
realized I had mistakenly put the files in the wrong folder so I
highlighted all the files needed to be moved in the Dreaweaver
sidebar using CTRL to selct only the needed files and dragged them
to the appropriate folder.... unfortuately I had just opened my
site template and had that highlighted as well. When I dragged the
files to the correct folder of course Dreamweaver prompted me to
update the pages on the site since I was moving the template (I
didn't realize til after I said yes) but after realizing it dragged
the template as well I just figured I'd drag the template back to
the template folder.....
Well, when I did so, Sharepoint Developer kicks in for some
reason and starts configuring files... I'm like WTF???
So when if completes I open the template and it decides to
OPEN IN SHAREPOINT Deleloper instead of just opening in Dreamweaver
which is still open at this point!!!!!!!!!!
So I close Sharepoint Developer and UNINSTALL the demo
figuring this will solve my problem.... WRONG....
After uninstalling Sharepoint Developer I try to open the
template and it asks me what APP I want to use to open it????
hmmmm... so I stop, right click on the file to select Dreamweaver
as the app associated with the file but when I click on the
Dreamweaver exe file to associate it with the file, Windows will
not allow me to do so, in fact it lists all the other apps in the
list of available apps to select but NOT
Dreamweaver?????????????????
So I restart figuring this will solve my problem.....WRONG!!
No matter what I do, Windows WILL NOT allow me to select
Dreamweaver as the default app for these files, in fact EVERY file
previously associated with Dreamweaver will not NOT OPEN with
Dreamweaver.... it automatically opens the window as if I right
clicked to allow me to select the app I want to associate to the
file... and now, FRONTPAGE is available (of course since it is aa
WINDOWS program) but still NO DREAMWEAVER. Then I browse to the
Dreamweaver folder as I tried earlier and when I double click and
select Dreamwever, WINDOWS IGNORES ME and reverts back to the
previous program...
What the hell am I suppose to do now???
Should I uninstall Studio Suite and then reinstall it, reset
all my setting and files and spend the next 2 days getting back on
track or does someone else know a better fix
HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

have reset up my
> entire workspace....
No you won't. Export your site settings and save your
workspace config. You
can find out how to do those things in DW's Help (F1)

Sharepoint and Dreamweaver?

Hi,
I am thinking of setting up Sharepoint for a client of mine but they are quite savy with Dreamweaver and want extend some of the functionality with dreamweaver. I don't think this is possible at the moment and visual studio is the tool of choice to add plugins etc to the Sharepoint but does anyone know if this integration is planned in the future dreamweaver roadmap?
Thanks,
Mark

I wouldn't.

Dreamweaver CS3 / Sharepoint

How can I connect dreamweaver to a site running sharepoint so
that I can See and edit the files

I think I have a solution....I imported the files that I
created with dreamweaver into sharepoint designer and then i was
able to move the files were I wanted them.
Thanks
But if anyone has any better ideas...please let me know...it
would be alot easier to do this directly from dreamweaver.

Dreamweaver + Sharepoint Support

Hi, I just have a quick question, at present does dreamweaver

Dreamweaver Integration with Microsoft Sharepoint

Can pages designed in Dreamweaver be integrated with a
website run on Sharepoint (a Microsoft Office application)?

I have successfully copy/pasted code from Dreamweaver into
SharePoint Designer, and imported images and scripts into Designer
so the relative paths resolve. I found your post because I'm
searching for info about using only Dreamweaver without Designer as
an intermediate step.

Sharepoint Designer 2010 and HTML Editing

Hi -
This may sound like a stupid question, but is there WYSIWG in Sharepoint Designer 2010? I've got to do basic HTML code, insert items, insert links, insert columns/tables, etc. I don't see a way to do this in Designer? Maybe I'm blind? I
am used to coding in Dreamweaver. Should I just assume that I'm going to have to continue to do my code/designs in Dreamweaver and then copy it in to Designer?
I'm pretty confused, I thought I could do some basic HTML (aside of editing fonts/colors etc) in Designer. I'm basically trying to create a wiki page with FAQ style text and some images and buttons.
I'm new to all this, I come from an admin and web design background, not really a Sharepoint Design/Development background.
Thanks for any help!

You will normally need to edit a page in Advanced mode to get access to modify its HTML. This will unghost the page.

Dreamweaver reports file "not found" when attempting to open files from SMB server...

User's work-files are hosted on a Windows Server 2003 SP2 volume accessed via SMB. She's been opening and saving the files from the server successfully in Dreamweaver for years from other Macs running Dreamweaver CS4.
Now she has an iMac running 10.7.4 and Dreamweaver CS6... and it's not the SMB problem you'd expect.
She mounts the server volume. She opens and saves files normally with full r/w permissions from any app... except Dreamweaver. For any file that she attempts to open in Dreamweaver -- whether from the Finder or from within Dreamweaver -- Dreamweaver pops up an alert reporting that the file at the file-path was not found. The same file is easily accessible from other apps and from the Finder. She continues to have full read/write access to the shared volume.
Local copies of the files do not have the problem. It only affects files hosted on the server and it only happens in Dreamweaver.
So, I create a new user account and everything works fine... The user mounts the sharepoint, opens a file with Dreamweaver... perfectly normal. Then she quits Dreamweaver and relaunches it... everything's fine. Repeatedly. It all works normally. She quits Dreamweaver and unmounts the share, then she mounts the share again and tries to open a file in Dreamweaver again... and it reports that the file was not found.
This is reproducible: If the server volume has been mounted and unmounted repeatedly under any user account, that triggers the error which continues occurring under that user account from that point on. A restart will not fix it. A safe-boot will not fix it. (In fact, restarting seems to trigger the problem by unmounting the volume.)
I tried trashing the entire contents of the ~/Library folder in one of the test-user accounts. It doesn't fix the problem. Once it strikes a user account, the only temporary fix seems to be using a new user account. And that's like a ticking time bomb just waiting for the problem to pop up again.
Any ideas?
TIA!!

I've seen on two computers so far. Looking at the mount point under unix, the share is being mounted at two different locations. This is normal behaviour for Macs when you mount two different shares with the same name.
From terminal I run:
df
Which returns something like
/dev/disk0s2                           1951845952 224463456 1726870496    12%    /
devfs                                         360       360          0   100%    /dev
map -hosts                                      0         0          0   100%    /net
map auto_home                                   0         0          0   100%    /home
//[email protected]/website 204360384 38067872 166292512    19%    /Volumes/website
//[email protected]/website 204360384 38067872 166292512    19%    /Volumes/website-1
map -fstab                                      0         0          0   100%    /Network/Servers
Notice that the share "website" has been mounted once as website, and again as website-1. This is the underlying unix name for the share, which is how most programs (99% sure including Adobe suite products) will reference files. So, if it thinks that the file is at /Volumes/website/site/index.html but can only see /Volumes/website-1/ then it doesn't know what to do.
The confusion arises because both will show in Finder as "website". Even more annoying is that Finder does not always unmount shares correctly, so that /Volumes/website might not be accessible but /Volumes/website-1 will be. As far as the user is concerned, the share "website" is still mounted, but as far as Dreamweaver is concerned, it isn't, although website-1 is.
It's the same share, same data, but is being referenced by different names, so does not seem accessible.
BUT
I don't have a solution yet, apart from force unmounting both (or rebooting), remounting, and checking that Dreamweaver is using the right share (perhaps by removing and readding from within Dreamweaver).
Tedious.

Compose/Edit Locally then publish to SharePoint Site

Sorry for the cross-posting ... This applies to both/either SP 2010 or 2013
Here is our current process.
Our Technical Writer creates MSWord-document job-aids with headings, tables, lists and screenshots to show the steps to complete common procedures (e.g. How to fill out an expense report). Screenshots are captured and altered using desktop software,
then pasted into the Word file.
The document is saved locally, converted to PDF and the PDF saved to a SharePoint Document Library
Either:
Users visit our internal company SharePoint site Document Library and download the PDF Documents, or
We send out links to documents in newsletters, personal emails or Lync chats
In the past, these documents would have also been printed, bound together and used as part of training. We are quickly progressing past that paradigm. Our users are much more comfortable with accessing documentation online. I want to get
out of the "PDF" and printing business all together.
We have looked into re-creating all of these job-aids in SharePoint's KnowledgeBase template but due to the significant number of screenshots that we employ having to save each screenshot separately, upload to a folder, then to embed in the Knowledgebase
template article is a significant increase in total effort.
Ultimately what I want is a solution where:
Our Technical Writer can create a procedure locally including cut/paste images
The procedure can be saved/published to our SharePoint site with images being named/saved/uploaded automatically
Users can search/browse/link to the procedure
If changes need to be made, the Technical writer can open it in the local application (return to Step 1).
Having some workflow (such as copy editing or manager approval stages), user ratings/comments, metadata/keywords, etc. would be icing on the cake.
In the "old days" I would be able to crack open Adobe Dreamweaver or MSFrontPage, set up a site template and do almost all of this except the images still had to be saved first -- but that was when there were a million variables in terms of the
webserver. With a fully integrated Microsoft set of tools, I am hoping there is some combination of Sharepoint, Word, Sharepoint Designer and/or InfoPath that can meet my needs.
BTW, we are currently using SharePoint 2007, but will be upgrading to 2013 soon (OR I can migrate to SP2010 if it will work, too) -- which if I can find a workable solution, I can start budgeting my team's time for the migration to a new paradigm. Thanks

lots of options here. first, you could just use publishing and then the only thing standard users can view are published documents, whereas site owners can edit pages/documents and work with the unpublished draft and publish when wanted.
also, if you want to automate the word-pdf process, 2010/2013 have word automation service app. the demo and code sample for using automation services is a snippet that does word-pdf conversions:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff181518(v=office.14).aspx
ideally, in 2013, you have cross site publishing abilities. you could basically allow your writer to edit the list items in the source site and when published, they are presented in any way you like using display templates on the destination:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj635883(v=office.15).aspx
...realistically, for your current process, I think just enabling publishing would work for what you want. sharepoint only indexes fully published content and users only see published content (unless they have perms ot edit it), so it should work great.
combined with word automation(requires 2010+, but the same code/config either way), you could keep the docs as pdfs for archival purposes if desired. although sharepoint will keep previous versions if you want, so keeping the pdfs for archive isn't as
necessary.

To answer your specific question "Is it possible to edit a google site using dreamweaver" the answer is NO. The reason is that Google does not allow uploading of web pagesusing any means such as FTP. Google provies hundreds of templates to choose from and like you I don't like them at all.
Microsoft had a free service long time ago that allowed you to upload your own pages but this has been stopped for new customers. New customers are required to sign up to their Office 365 Service <http://tinyurl.com/bucc6t4> and this costs money. However, you can build and host a website with a custom domain for your business.using their free software called Microsoft Sharepoint Designer 2010 <http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=16573>. I believe they also have a 64 bit version to download but I only use 32 bit on my 64 bit systems!!
Hope this helps.

No Page from Template in Dreamweaver CC

Using DW CC, new file doesn't bring up a page from template option. My site templates show up when I click Site Templates but there is no Page from Template option! Any suggesstions? I've reinstalled it once but no difference.
TIA

thewiseguy,
I thought that I was the only one hanging on... It's not like Adobe is the only one having problems with WYSIWYG editors. Same all round. NSA and any number of other spooky causes come to mind, but the reall problem is the sophistication of new browsers, new desktop hardware, rapid revolution from desktop only editing to inclusion of just about every connected device out there; and the numbers of connected devices is expanding far more rapidly than any ever expected, with players like China's and India's diversifications now only 10% there but expected to engage as fully as we are in less than four (4) years, and who knows where we all go from there.
But to make it all really simple for Adobe support, here in these forums where related questions are never tackled head on... kindly read this Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_editor
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Web_editor#Difficulties_in_achieving_WYSIWYG
Note: this article, while gaining focus, is as lost to the full extent of the incrementing problems as our sorry old-fashioned isolated editing device approach.
Now, Microsoft has retreated into Sharepoint big-frame corporate network publishing with VB and WebMatrix. While FP cum STUDIO only mangles Windows half as often as DW (it is their own OS after all), it's not much better, doing weird things like causing every application to save into ghost data dumps without user warnings until everything system-wide is lost)... Far worse, Microsoft Studio problems get ported by the new Windows 8.1 account server from one Windows install to the next, EVEN WHEN DISKS ARE WIPED CLEAN WITH DISKPART! - And yes, Microsoft apps are more effected by this than 3rd party apps like CC.
Okay, so Adobe and Microsoft need to fess up BIG TIME! Everyone is having WYSIWYG web editing problems as OS drifts into some weird new rapidly changing dynamic security model that WYSIWYG can't fit... or can it?
I know you are feeling negative reading this, but full stop please! Look at that Wiki article, that does not include a link to WIX, http://www.wix.com/ direct code editing paying members only). Notice that all the 'modern' Mac and PC apps that work are raw code, text editors. WYSIWYG self-instaleld software is NOT keeping up excepting online publishing services. Since OS's are rapidly becoming impregnable isolated SECURE devices, we need an ONLINE DREAMWEAVER CC web publishing service. Check out that cute Wix link. Now fill that with CC richness. YOU GET IT, FINALLY! CC has to transition into an online publishing presence. Along with PS (eg, http://pixlr.com/editor/) and everything else DREAMWEB!
Where is it? When is it coming? Yes Please! A.S.A.P.
PLEASE!

Anyone dealt with MS Sharepoint??

I have a probable client interested in a new website. He
mentioned that they use MS Sharepoint, and I've looked at the
relevant MS web pages.
How much does this affect my ability to do a website in
Dreamweaver? They have a very simple website with minimal content,
so I don't know why they need such a high-end system. But I don't
want to argue against using it until I understand what their
rationale might be.
Any thoughts?

> Darrell, can you tell me what you see in the site that
says "sharepoint"
> to you?
The goofy tab+drop down menu at the top is your standard MOSS
navigation
bar.
The navigation on the left is what Sharepoint calls
'QuickLaunch Menu' and
is the default way to navigate content in a site.
Then on some pages, like this one:
http://132.198.174.45:82/Pages/Contact_US.aspx
You'll see the 'Content Editor Web Part' title...which says
that that is a
content editor web part (For some silly reason, they didn't
bother to hide
the name of it from the page.)
And then if you really want to get scared, look at the
source. In addition
to tables inside tables inside tables you see lovely class
names such as
this:

Yea.
I think those are the main arguments. For me, I'd say:
- SharePoint is overkill from an administration and User
Interface
standpoint for web content management
- It's a very inflexible templating system. If you're OK
with slightly
modified default templates, that will work, otherwise be
prepared to make a
lot of compromises in the UI, graphic design, and overall
interaction of the
site.
- The code SharePoint produces isn't up to modern standards.
It still
relies on massive amounts of tables, it's CSS support is
unintuitive and not
terribly userful for a developer, and a lot of it was built
without much
consideration for things like accessibility standards.

What is your experience running Dreamweaver in a virtual/citrix/xenapp environment?

Does anyone have any experiences running Dreamweaver on Citrix XenApp? If so, has the user experience has been positive? Is there anything you found during the installation process that we should be aware of?
Just looking for any feedback that would be helpful as we move forward in installing the trial version and testing it out.
thank you.

Thanks guys this has been really helpful.
I got another identical server approved so I was wondering if the following specs will do if LOB applications are installed on the SharePoint Infrastructure in the future.
Virtual Machine 1: Web Server + App Server
SharePoint Server:
RAM: 25GB Processor: 64bits. 4-cores Disk space: 160GB
Virtual Machine 2:
SQL
RAM: 20GB Processor: 64bits,4-cores Disk space: 160GB
Would this be overkilling it or should I just increase the RAM to 25GB on the SharePoint Server and leave the SQL as 16Gb?
Just to give an idea the portal consists of 1 corporate site and about 8 departmental sites which is not the concern as the 16GB for SP and 16 GB would be fine (I would assume). I am however concern if the old specs would be okay when the LOB applications,
workflows, BI are installed in the future.
Thanks again,
AR.
