Use of templates in site

Hi there,
is it OK to design and use a template for all pages in a site except the index page - can I just do this as a stand alone then link to the templated pages - or will this cause me problems?
Thanks (having a disaster with a site in some IE8 PC's (fine in some - not fine in others) and am trying to get to root of issue.

Sure, it's OK. I do it frequently.

How to use jsp:scriptlet in site template

hi all,
I want to use <jsp:scriptlet> in site template, but jdev showed me an error msg when I put <jsp:scriptlet> in site template:
scriptlet can not work properly with OJSP, I checked the forums, one possible solution is to encapsulate java code in jsp taglib, but I dislike this solution.
Is there a way to disable OJSP? or any solution to use java code in site template?
Best regards

I believe the official word is if you are trying to use java code in a scriptlet in your site template then you are doing something wrong.
The goal is to keep java code separate from the template and pages. Any logic should go to your supporting serviece objects and all of your front-end work should be accomplished using available or custom tags.
Can you describe what you are trying to accomplish with this java code in your template?

Using the Template of one site for another site.

Hi,
I have created and published Site A using a template (DW CS4). I now wish to create Site B and use the same template from the Site A.
The only thing which will change is the banner which I create in Photoshop for each site.
I also wish to use the navigation buttons which were part of Site A's template. Can this be done?
One note: all the files from Site A have been copied into Site B.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

One note: all the files from Site A have been copied into Site B.
Including the template? If so, then blast ahead. Things should work fine.

I have download two adobe muse templates. i am designing my website on one of them (so this is a site) i want to use the second template as a new page for my current website how can i do this? Thanks. if I've over complicated things, in short how can i use two templates in one site as two separate pages.

Hi,
You can setup two different master page, each with a template. See if that works.
If you are not already aware of Master page, please have a look to this.

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

How do I create a master page when using Project7 templates?

Hi,
I am using P7 templates to easily create a nice website. However, I would like to create for example the main menu only once and have it re-used on every page or at least every page I want to. I think this is a called a masterpage (?) where you can tag parts to be re-used on other pages.
Can somebody please tell me where I can find support, examples, tutorials on this? Or can somebody tell me how to do this in a P7 template?
Thanks in advance!!

You want to save your project page as a DW Template from which your other site pages will be spawned. Or, you want to use Server-Side Includes (SSIs).

Code syntax error in header using a template?

Now running CS5 DW in a 32 bit Windows/Vista ultimate environment. The improved error messages have brought to light a problem that I apparently have had for a long time but didn't know it as CS4 simply flagged the line but no message.
Many of my site pages use a template http://a0540807.uscgaux.info/Templates/A0540807_Skeleton_2010.dwt
If I build or edit a page using this template in CS5, when in code view I see "There is a syntax error on line 57. Code hinting may not work until you fix this error. Line 57 is within the header of the page and is simply </script>
But if I simply detach the template from the page, the error goes away and it says no syntax errors.
So I am confused, is there an issue with the code or is this a Dreamweaver issue dealing with template usage?
While the error appears cosmetic, I keep wondering what to do to eliminate. Apparently, I have had this situation a long time as Line 57 is also identified back in CS4 but no error message until CS5. Any pointers are appreciated. Thanks.
Andy

I don't actually think there is any problem with your page...run one of your child pages through the W3C validator: http://validator.w3.org/ . I cast a page from your template and it came through with flying colors!

Potential problem when using a template

Hi,
I am fairly new to dreamweaver and I have created a template
for my website, I am now using that template to produce a number of
other pages. When I come to save it I save it as a new file,it is
saving as a HTM file rather than a HTML file, is this normal?? Also
once I have saved it once as a HTM file, I have to keep using 'save
as' rather than just 'save', or it will save it as a template. Is
this behaviour normal??
Thanks,

No. It means you are not using templates properly. The way
you use them is
not to open the template file, add unique content, and then
resave as
*.html. You should always *spawn* a new child from the
template file first
using FILE | New from Template > site name > template
name > Create. And
you should definitely read DW's F1 help about how to use
templates before
going any further.
By the way, this means that all of the pages you have
generated so far are
improperly made, and you will have to recreate them using the
spawning
method I described above.

Problems using the template feature in CS3

Hi Everyone
Appreciation in advance to anyone trying to help me out, as I am a little lost to say the least...
Firstly the website I'm talking about it www.handbakedarcade.co.uk
I recently re-built the site using the template feature on dreamweaver as I have a lot of pages and all have the same general layout with just one large editable region in the main section of each page. The trouble I'm having is that when i change the template (named TEMPLATE3.dwt) and then re-upload it as well as the pages that are dependent on it the changes are not seen. The problem is simple, I will try and prepare for the answer not to be!
Thanks again, Tom

We'll give this another try:
Tom,
Looking at the page you linked it - it doesn't show any template markup at all. There are no editable or non-editable regions showing in the code.
The actual master template (the dwt file) does not have to be uploaded to the server. Once you make changes to a template, the changes flow through to all the child pages associated with the template and these are the files that need to be uploaded.    You can upload the templates folder to the remote if you wish to keep a copy as a backup, but it makes no difference to the associated with it.
Not sure what's happened to you page, as Nancy pointed out the opening and closing <body> tags are missing.
I have created an ID for the outer div so that we can give it some styles so that it is centered on the page and also that the content within the wrapper are centered.
Copy and paste the following code in a new DW document and see the differences between your original code (the page that you linked to) and the code below.
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Templates not uploading all pages using same template.

Hey guys, I'm having difficulties with Dreamweaver at the moment.
Here's the problem:
I've created a template for my current website. This file has .dwt so it's the template.
I've created so far 3 different pages using html and the template.dwt file.
The template has a editable region for the content.
But, I was editing the non editable regions, like the naviagation links and names.
I changed some information on the template file, pressed Ctrl+S then this window popped up:
http://prntscr.com/nd36z
Yes, it works so far according to dream weaver template guides, but I have 2 other pages using the templates which are named index.html and staffinfo.html, which is not showing up there.
After I pressed update: It shows:
http://prntscr.com/nd3cj
I'm wondering what might be the problem there. I had a look at the html code on my other 2 pages that wern't displayed, and at the top it was linked with the template file name which was the same as the "offguides".
Another question i want to ask is, is there a way to update a template without already having to open the files with the templates on? Because at the moment, I have to open all the files with the template on, then save them manually after I saved the template. Because if i have like 1000 different pages using the same templates it would be quite time consuming to keep pressing save and open 1000 different tabs for the pages. So is there like a auto update & save? The two other pages doesn't show up in the pop-up window, but if I open them the templates updates them, but i still have to save manually.
Thanks for reading, hope this can be solved.
James.

Jon, ohh, I'd try it, but there is no Page from template:   http://prntscr.com/nd7oa

Template Web Site Companies

Do any of you ever use Templates as a jump start on your web designs? I have pretty much done everything custom other than Project Seven's De Ja Vu on one of my own sites. However, I'm considering signing up with a company like DreamTemplate for those times when I need to speed up the process, and custom is not essential.
If any of you can share your experience or hearsay I would be grateful for the feedback.

Templates do make your life much easier. I use the following scheme....
First, I mentally separate the page layout into three sections:
1. Stuff that will not change for the life of the site (i.e., the basic
structural elements)
2. Stuff that *could* change from time to time (e.g., navigation elements,
burst advertisements, section-specific navigation, etc.)
3. Stuff that *will* change from one page to the next
Then I create a template containing all class1 elements. Next I create
server-side include files containing all class 2 elements and place them on
the template as needed. Note - some of the class 2 elements may be
"section-specific elements", and their placement on the template will be
subject to the next item. Finally, I insert editable regions to cover the
class 3 items, INCLUDING the section-specific navigation.
This allows me to just cookie-cut the rest of the site. I estimate that
even for fairly large sites, about 80% of my work goes into planning and
creating this template file.
And - for sites with more than about 100 pages, templates can become quite tedious unless they are used in this fashion.
This is useful information so I've marked it helpful. I don't actually use a "Template" file, nor have I mastered .php, so my workflow might be a little different from yours. Thanks to your past advice I have learned to use SSIs but as you know find them limited and not much different from DW Library Items.
Thanks to you my most recent client websites are validating (XHTML)! :-)

How to create server 2012 R2 image to be used as template for cloud?

Hi,
I need help to create windows server 2012R2 image that can be used as template for AWS or Azure or any other cloud provider.
VM created from that template must
1) be syspreped
2) answer all setup questions
3) must change computer name to unique name
4) must automatically join VM to on-premise domain.
I need Microsoft supported way to do that. Does creating unattended answer file will help? But, I don't want to provide domain joining credentials in plain text. Where should I keep that answer file so that it can be used during setup process.
Is there any other ways to achieve that.
Thank you.

Cisco 2800 - Multiple VPNs Using Virtual-Template

Cisco VPN concentrators)
!!! all follow the standard crypto map config on the physical

!!! i.e. http://www.vpnc.org/InteropProfiles/cisco-ios.txt
It is obvious that with my router configured as a VPN hub, if the
tunnel dies, I need to wait for the peer to reset the tunnel, all this
time my clients in my network are not able to access the remote sites.
The reason to use the virtual-template interfaces as suppose to
traditional "crypto map" way, is that my peers do not want to share the
same VPN end-point between themselves (different companies all
together) and they are very strict in regards to ACLs. As I don't have
a VPN device for each one of them and their number increases (I have 5
separate tunnels right now with a potential grow to 15 in the next 3
months), I need to find a way to get rid of the hub config in my end (I
did not have much choice there when I migrated to this platform from a
linux box).
Pros for the Virtual-Template:
- separate QoS for each tunnel
- ACLs configured directly on the tunnel interface (grater flexibility)
- tunnel end-point IP address can be part of a range BGP advertised via
multiple ISP links
Cons:
- hub config, the tunnel needs to be reseted by the peer
Any help is very much appreciated. Thank you,
Adrian

Use web template to open a report from a menu

Hi all,
I have created one web template where I have a role menu that shows all reports that are available to the user. When the user clicks on one of these reports, the report displays in a new window. So far everything is working fine.
But, I have also created another web template and I want the report that is displayed in a new window to use this template. How do I do this? I have been looking at the settings for the Role menu, but can't find anywhere to put the template name...
Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks and regards,
Tove-Mette

Hello,
yes you can use the publish function, but only to add new entries.
In Transaction pfcg (not in WAD or BEx) in SAP GUI and then select your role at the tab "Menu" you can add/remove/maintain/organize your menu.
just click on a menu entry and take sth.like edit.
Then you will see a link if you didn#t find the string &template_id= the system will take the standard template (Tranaction spro), and you can easily add or change this parameter.
Hope that helps, please ask if you need further explanation.
Regards
Marcus
