Using a CMS with Dreamweaver

I'd like to build a news-oriented website that takes
advantage of Dreamweaver's design capabilities, but utilizes a
Content Management System.
The goal is to build a dynamic site that will be updated with
5-10 new items per day, and have those live in a searchable
database.
Can anyone recommend a CMS that works well with Dreamweaver?
Or offer any other suggestions as to how to achieve that goal with
CS4 as the backbone?

Hi Paula,
I have not personally used either of these on a production
system, but
there are some extensions available to integrate with
Dreamweaver:
Drupal:
http://xtnd.us/dreamweaver/drupalapi
WordPress
http://www.themedreamer.com/
Be sure to search around because I am sure there are more.
HTH,
Randy

Git/gitHub supported or can used together (linked) with dreamweaver cs6

git/gitHub supported or can used together (linked) with dreamweaver cs6? what is version control?
server folder, web url fields,...when define a LOCAL HOST SERVER what must insert? I have XAMPP...htdocs/ win7...?

It is best to download scripts from Github and save them in your local site folder.
To set-up a local testing server in DW see screenshots below. Replace C:\wamp\www\ with xampp\htdocs
Make sure Xampp is running.

CMS with Dreamweaver?

We have a very large site that has lots of CF apps. The
client really wants a CMS to allow end users to edit pages. We are
looking at Contribute because we really want to be able to edit the
pages in Dreamweaver for those of use that do coding and that seems
to work. So we are trying to find some open-source CF CMS that we
can use with Dreamweaver templates or something. We want to be able
to use our DB for validation to access. Of course they are looking
for taxonomy options, etc which we can't get for Contribute. Any
one have any ideas?

> Of course they are looking for taxonomy
> options, etc which we can't get for Contribute. Any one

Contribute isn't really a CMS. It's an HTML editor. It
manages HTML pages
not--content per se (which it sounds like you really need if
they're talking
about taxonomies).
If you want Open Source, I'd suggest not excluding PHP
options, as that is
by and far the absolute largest pool of options to choose
from.

Using Flash 8 with Dreamweaver 8

Hi guys and gals, I am in a unfomfortable situation now. I
have awsome ideas of how I would like to implement my creative
talents in building awsome websites but I cannot seem to transfer
over what ever graphics, text, buttons to Dreamweaver. I'm creating
.swf files but when I try to open up any item created from Flash it
gets all weird. I cannot seem to save those graphics and such to
html so I keep getting like a grey box with the flash logo.
Now, moving items from Fireworks to Dreamweaver is fine but
moving items from Flash to Dreamweaver is a pain in the arse.
Also, I TOTALLY understand that Dreamweaver is a awsome
formating tool but I don't know about you guys but I feel that I
feel so restrained by using these templates. I understand that
websites need to have structure but what if you want to make
different structures for certain pages on your sight?
Yes using CSS is very customizable but MUST you have
templates to put any type of graphic on a Dreamweaver design view?
All I want to achieve is making simple graphics with Flash,
Edit those graphics with Fireworks and drop them into Dreamweaver.
That's ALL I want to do but I'm having such a hard time doing this.
I'm beginning to feel completely retarded or something but
I'm just not getting it. I've bought every dog gone book and CD on
the market but I'm just not getting this concept.
But then again, I am a beginner so slap me twice, lol.
Please for all you veterans out their, explain to me like I'm
a 12 year old. What am I doing wrong?
Also, I'm trying to build a simple mock up of a simple web
page with like 5 navigational pages. I want to have buttons,
graphics, text, sound and video just to include what most websites
have just so I can get a understanding of how to put together a web
page.
Do you guys have suggestions on this idea?
Thank you once again and god bless.

>feel so restrained by using these templates
what templates? Halo? Don't.
> need to have structure but what if you want to make

> for certain pages on your sight
No problem (see below)
>moving items from Flash to Dreamweaver is a pain in the
arse.
Don't move - import them
>drop them into Dreamweaver
see above
>I've bought every dog gone book and CD on the market
All the books in the world on Dreamweaver cannot replace
books/tutorials on
HTML and CSS before you get to the hair-tearing stage (oops!
too late!)
> Please for all you veterans out their, explain to me

Not a veteran (well, not in experience lol!) - what you're
doing wrong is
going about using Dreamweaver like you would Word or as if
it's WYSIWYG -
it's not.
Have a look at this
http://www.w3schools.com/ on
the left, learn X/HTML and Learn CSS.
There *are* good, ready-made templates available if you want
to go down this
road, but without a grounding in HTML and CSS, you will
continue to wonder
if it's all worth it (o:
http://www.dreamweaverresources.com/freetemplates.htm
and others. Good luck!

Using 1.5 with Dreamweaver CS3

Hello,
What are the pros and cons of replacing Spry 1.4, bundled
with DW CS3, with the 1.5 prerelease?
In our company, we've never used Spry before but plan to do
that with a new project we're working on. Is it better to use (and
learn) v1.5 instead the spry code that comes with DW?
Any side effects on Dreamweaver functionality?
Regards

Hello sakisp,
The Pros are:
- lots of bugs were fixed
- lots of new features added (Data + Widgets + Effects)
- code improved for performance
- we did some structural changes and deprecated some of the
API, however we remained DW compatible. If you start using Spry 1.5
you won't have to migrate any of your page to the new version.
- improved the samples, documentation and demos.
The Cons are:
- the upgrade procedure may generate some problems and we
don't have an automate way to make this update:
http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?catid=602&threadid=1269066&fo rumid=72
- none of the new features in Spry 1.5 have a DW CS3
integration so you'll have to code some of the things by hand.
We worked as hard as possible and the Spry 1.5 is fully
compatible with the Dreamweaver Spry version. This was one of our
goals for this release to make sure the thinks will still work
after the release.
Basically I consider the upgrade a good thing, specially if
you start now from scratch with the Spry. Just make sure you read
carefully the previous post with the upgrade procedure in DW.
Regards,
Cristian MARIN

Using InDesign Files with Dreamweaver

For several years my designers have produced layered
Photoshop files which I then import into ImageReady. In ImageReady
I produce the slices, background images, etc.
I have a new designer which likes to use InDesign for Website
Design. I am looking for help from the community regarding the use
of InDesign files as raw material for website development. Do I
need to get InDesign or can I import the file into ImageReady?
Your help is appreciated.

That's nice for him; but what about YOU?
If your workflow does not include InDesign, then his
shouldn't for your
jobs; he's working for you, after all. And I've never comes
across a web
designer using InDesign for web work (print work, yes - all
the time. It's
good for that...). I usually work in Fireworks, but I have
one client who
likes to work from Photoshop to match with their in-house
designers. For
that client, I use Photoshop.
So... Just tell him the formats you support, and leave him to
sort out how
he gets them for you. If you need the source documents as
well, then dictate
them also.

Pete.

"Open with Dreamweaver" does not open DW

When I use Transmit (FTP program for Mac) or I have a file (html) on my desktop and use the "Open with Dreamweaver" menu in Finder, then Dreamweaver does not open first time. I have to do it again for it to open. This does NOT happen with CS5 Dreamweaver.
Oh, and DW CS6 is damn slow.

Pages does not open .PDF files. TO do so you will need iBooks which is an Apple app that is free in the app store.
Good Luck !

Using PSP with Dreamweaver

Using Dreamweaver to create PSP pages can become effortless and allow developers to rapidly generate thin-client, web based applications. Anything that can be accomplished with an ASP, PHP, JSP or any type of dynamic web page that also incorporates Javascript, can easily be created with PSP.
I've proven to management at my company that given similar application requirements, writing and deploying PSP pages is a much faster development cycle. And, in ALL cases, execution time is much faster and with a smaller application footprint.
When using these scripts together with Dreamweaver you can create a Rapid Application Development environment all by using PL/SQL Server Pages.
The batch file LOAD_PSP.bat will create a PSP file from your HTM file, creates a timestamped backup copy, and loads the PSP file into the database - all fast and easy.
Copy these batch files to your development directory and create a backup directory called Backup. Simply modify these batch files by adding the service name of your database to DB_NAME and adding your development username and password to the PSP_CONNECT variables. You should also change the path of your Oracle Home for the ORACLE_HOME variable as well.
To use these batch files, simply open a DOS Window and change it to your development directory where the batch files reside. Execute the batch files with the syntax, "LOAD_PSP web_page [optional connect string]" and the batch file will execute (don't add the .htm extension).
To allow you to maintain some sense of versioning, use the CH_PSP.bat script. This script simply adds a CHKPNT extension to the file name in the Backup folder. The reason for this is that LOAD_PSP will still copy PSP backup files of those compilations that fail and these should be removed. When you application is working, you can create a "CHECKPOINT" of the PSP file that you know works. This allows you to only maintain backup copies that you know work. Simply use the syntax "CH_PSP web_page". To perform a CHECKPOINT on all files in a folder, use the syntax "CH_PSP /ALL".
To view help for each, simply run the batch file followed by a /? or /help.
In closing, challenge a Java developer to create a dynamic, web-based, database driven app from scratch and win the top 3 challenges: Development time, size of application and speed of the application. I'll bet the PSP app wins all 3 every time.

Yes, I can bring the CF administrator screen. It asked me for
a password, the one I entered during the install of CF.
No I have created a mdb database and in the administrator
screen I registered the data source.
I am using the built-in CF web server.
I was trying to create a directory for a testing web page (
just to get me started...) in my computer, tipically in the
"myDocuments" folder and then upload it to the CFweb server.
Now I am reading the CF documentation in the adobe site,
using the samples they provide.
I guess it will be a long way to learn but I will do it
Thanks

Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs)

Fedex can only be used with dreamweaver using metric, not pounds (lbs), evidently?
This as per their tier 2 tech suport.
They say I should just convert to metric, no joke!
Any ideas would be greatly appreaciated?
Also a warning to anyone thinking of using business catalyst for their site, sorry, their business.
Their note to me:
Your request (# 82816) has been solved. To reopen this request, reply to this email or go to the Help & Support page.

    Thanks for contacting us Michael
Our engineering team has detected some problems when doing weight conversions (from the quantities entered in the interface to what’s used when making the API calls to FedEx) -
He have added this to our internal bug tracker to be fixed for one of the future releases.
    I realise that this might not be what you wanted to hear,but at this moment we do't have a workaround in order to send the
dimensions in pounds and not in KG
    Sorry for this inconvenience!
Kind regards,

If you're in US it will be in pounds. If your site is set any other country
in the rest of the world it will be metric. So BC or as you call it
Dreamweaver will look at the site country, which you set when creating the
site

Using a MsAccess database with Dreamweaver CS4?

Hi Everyone,
I have a question concerning using a Microsoft Access Database with Dreamweaver.
First, I was wondering if this was possible. Second, if it is, could someone give me instructions or a link on how to do this. I am pretty new to Dreamweaver, code, etc..., so simpler instructions on how to acheive this would be great.
Here is some information...
1) I am running Windows XP SP2
2) I am using Microsoft Office 2003 (Acces included)
3) I am using Dreamweaver CS4
4) I have installed XAMMP (Apache,MySQL, FileZilla, and PHPmyAdmin, as far as I know)
If anyone needs more information, I'll be hapy to share it as soon as possible.
Any help is greatly appreciated,
Musicman1994

The choice of database really depends on which server-side technology you plan to use, and what you're actually planning to use it for.
Access was designed to create databases for small office systems. Although I personally found it very confusing, a lot of people like it and say it's easy to use. However, its major drawback is that it creates very large files; and as soon as the website gets a reasonable amount of traffic, Access has a tendency to freeze or lock up. You can create your database in Access and then export it to another database system, such as Microsoft SQL Server or MySQL. But it's better to start with the database that you ultimately plan using.
I certainly wouldn't recommend developing anything in ASP and then attempting to convert the website to PHP. Although all server-side programs share common features and structures, the code is completely different. So, take some time over choosing your technology first. If you have never developed in ASP, you should be aware that Microsoft stopped developing it about ten years ago. It's still popular and widely available, but ASP is likely to dwindle in usefulness as the years go by. Use PHP or ColdFusion, both of which are supported by Dreamweaver. The other main alternative is ASP.NET, but that's no longer supported by Dreamweaver.

CMS for Dreamweaver and PHP with MySQL

Hello
I am at a medium level with Dreamweaver MX and 8. I have
created a dynamic website running PHP and MySQL. The site sells
luxury yachts (resales). What I need is a simple, not too custom
code heavy content management system to allow the client to update
dynamic text areas and upload images via a web browser (IE7 PC).
The site needs the ability to input new boats, and delete sold
boats (flush out the database items).
Has anyone got a recommendation for some CMS software,
preferably Mac OSX PPC and running on a server under linux.
I don't mind buying it, in fact rather do that than risk
shareware going forward.

I have the exact same need. Looks like nobody had any
suggestions for the original poster. Perhaps someone can make a
recommendation this time? I too am looking for a commercial
product, rather than open-source.

CMS for Dreamweaver designed site

HI, I designed an 8 page website for a friend with dreamweaver cs3 and he would like to access the pages himself to make text changes from his own PC.
Is there a CMS that he can download and use to change text and images on a website desinged with CS3, I see from other discussions Webassist and Cushycms mentioned, but are they suitable for CS3 designs.
Thank you

This should have been discussed & in your contract well BEFORE you began buiding the site. It costs more and requires extra coding to make a CMS site. I hope you plan to bill for all the extra work involved.
#1 find out if your client's server supports PHP & MySql. This will be required for just about any CMS you decide to use.
#2 The CMS you choose will depend on 4 things:
     a) your coding skills,
     b) client's requirements,
     c) your server's programming languages,
     d) project budget.

I want to use 2 monitors with my mbp, what are thoughts, I do web development and require another screen. I want to pretty much use my mbp as a desktop at home and attach 2 external monitors, what are your thoughts

I use Adobe tools, photoshop, dreamweaver etc. I am constantly playing music and run out of space for viewing what I build on one screen. What can you recommend I do to solve the issue? The mac cinema is nice and all but still just one giant display. 2 monitors would be great but can my laptop handle it if I add an external video card via usb 2.0? Help! My laptop has 384MB DDR3 SDRAM shared video memory, plus AMD Radeon HD 6750M graphics with 512MB GDDR5 video memory.
What are my options?

i've been looking for a while as well and either this (http://www.amazon.com/Matrox-D2G-DP2D-MIF-DualHead2Go-Digital-ME/dp/B0080K6WIG) seems to be the only thing that will make it work.
i'm about to buy one and will chime back in when it comes and i have it set up...
belkin makes a hub (http://www.belkin.com/us/p/P-F4U055/) but the display port doesn't double up as you'd expect unless they are thunderbolt (i believe - check other threads)...

i dont now why always flash ever stay up, or first, and
another information under flash... this a problem... if you have
menus...
thanks.... have nice day.....

This is a drawback of using flash or any other active
content. By default, all active content including flash will
display over every other content and thats why your menu stays
under the flash movie. Some people make the flash background
transparent to show content under the flash movie, but that will
not work for menu items.
I would suggest that you make the menu such that it does not
overlap with the flash movie.
