If you're using a server that has PHP 7 and your php connection strings are not written with modern code, you will see errors.

MYSQLI EXAMPLE:

<?php

$con = mysqli_connect("localhost","username","password","database");

// Check connection

if (mysqli_connect_errno())

  {

  echo "Failed to connect to MySQL: " . mysqli_connect_error();

        }

        else echo "Successfully connected, happy coding!"

?>

<?php phpinfo() ?>

perhaps that as Paula recommand, that would be interesting to really have a seat around a table, where could be present:

  • the DW user community
  • the Extension developper community
  • some developer that are ready to be involved in using DW for their project
  • PM of transversal products (Animate (I mean the edge one... not Flash), Illustrator, PS, Fw, Bridge)
  • a mediator guarantees standards HTML, CSS, APIs

then make a real flat draw from scratch to avoid to carry all the old pans

    Adobe presenting the 2018 roadmap for Dreamweaver CC on Tuesday, 5th December 2018 at 7AM Pacific Time.

    See the "Prerelease Dreamweaver" forum for more details.

    Perhaps it could be a good opportunity to make Adobe aware of our requests.

    In the "Prerelease Dreamweaver" forum, Adobe has claimed:

    ------

    Thanks for your inputs. Although, there is no active development going on in Server Behavior and Databases panels, but i will still raise this with the team and reply back on this thread if there are any updates.

    ------

    So, if you need to use server behaviours with Dreamweaver, you have only an option, downgrade to CS6.

    Adobe has decided in the last versions to remove everything that Macromedia had developed after the acquisition of Drumbeat (and InterAKT) and discouraged the activity of extensions development.

    I don't know the reasons but Wappler's success shows us that the users still want tools to generate dynamic content from databases without in-depth programming knowledge.

    I have reported this issue to the team and they have logged a bug for investigation. Meanwhile, can you check if the extension from DMXzone works/

    Thanks,

    @Preran This has been an issue since CC2017 where the extensions that rely on the SB panels, have not worked. This has not been of a great concern to DMXZone, they have gone off on a tangent which reduces their reliance on Dreamweaver (read: Wappler). It has been of a great concern to WebAssist due to their lack of resources.

    Many of WebAssist's customers are pleading with Ray Borduin to forget Dreamweaver and start writing extensions for another IDE.

    While you are talking to the DW development team, you may make mention of the fact that extensions make Dreamweaver, they add to Dreamweaver what Adobe does not. In the past 5 years or so, Dreamweaver has made it increasingly impossible for third party developers to add their extensions, paricularly the removal of Adobe's Extension Manger to name one.

    Have a look at Substitute for Dreamweaver to see what your users are saying.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Hi Ben,

    I have already shared the forum post in question with the team and underlined the importance of making it easy for extension developers to create extensions for Dreamweaver.

    From their reply, I believe that the team is aware of this situation, and they are working with related teams to address this issue. Like all of you, I am keeping my fingers crossed.


    Thanks,Preran

    Are you asking about the old & outdated server-behaviors that were formerly in Dreamweaver?

    Don't bother using them.

    Or are you asking about a 3rd party commercial extension?

    Adding to Nancy's reply, have a look at this for more info https://www.dmxzone.com/go/21842/enable-server-behaviors-and-data-bindings-panel-support-for-dreamweaver-cc/

    The warning is also applicable to CC2018, it will not work.
