Dreamweaver Issues

[BrightSusan]

I am trying to make changes to my pages using Dreamweaver but for some reason when I upload the files they are not changing? Anyone else having this issue with Dreamweaver? I am directly uploading them to the exact place they are in the server now.

Dreamweaver is a pretty good PHP code editor. What files are you trying to edit?

Does your dreamweaver site properly show both your local and remote files?

At the very bottom of the files panel, does it say upload success?

Do you have "upload on save" checked in the site manager?

[BrightSusan]

I do have the upload on save checked and it does say complete. Any other thoughts?
I am trying to change the main page text

includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_main_page.php

1. What files are you editing?
2. What changes are you making?

includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_main_page.php

I am trying to edit the file above. Its the text on the homepage

Do you have an override copy in
/includes/languages/english/html_includes/your_template/define_main_page.php ?
If so, that is what is being displayed, and changes to
/includes/languages/english/html_includes/define_main_page.php are ignored.
The Define Page Editor automatically uses the override copy if one exists, but Dreamweaver might not...

[BrightSusan]

No, I actually just installed it.

If you're trying to upload html to this page then you need to use the admin/tools/define pages editor.... Make sure the drop down is selected as 'plain text' NOT html (I know weird right) then just paste your html from Dreamweaver into the white text area and update the main page that way..... Simple.

you may also want to check file and folder permission on your site . even though you may see success in uploading .. but changes may not take in effect if you have no write permission .

I will try it... that didn't even occur to me to do it that way.
