Does anybody know of any indepth video tutorials for Dreamweaver ? The ones provided by Dreamweaver are very basic and barely scratch the surface. The tutorials on Lynda.com/LinkedIn seemed to have been removed.

To answer the original post, this is where Lynda.com has moved to LinkedIn Learning: Online Courses for Creative, Technology, Business Skills

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

Thanks, Ben. How had I missed Microsoft taking over Lynda?

Addendum: FYI, just discovered navigating to lynda.com goes to an alternate/sister home page (but essentially same content) to the link Ben provided.

I do not know the quality or quantity of the current tutorials, but you might try Lynda.com. It has always offered an excellent library of tutorials for a plethora of programs. You may find something there that meets your needs. Just know, however, that Lynda is not a free service, but it won't hurt to check it out.

I still see the Dreamweaver tutorials on Linkedin Learning? LinkedIn Learning: Online Courses for Creative, Technology, Business Skills

Is it a specific Dreamweaver tutorial you are looking for?

Those courses are all for old versions of Dw, with many of them going back to CS6.

Also most regarding the web are not Dw specific.

What would you recommend to stay up to date with the latest cutting edge web design trends ?

I'm php, css & html based, front & backend.

If you are reading this Preran.

I have just finished watching the 'advanced' video tutorials for Dw, and being honest they are much to basic to be called 'advanced', plus they could do with added notes on the page for 'further reading' to direct users to more complete or advanced information.

Don't know, but maybe the above comment on 'further reading' could apply to other product tutorials as well.

What do you wish to learn?

Except for how to set-up a site definition, Dw is nothing more than a text editor with a few additional helper functions. It also requires one to know how to code, which means that any video or resource that teaches html, css, (and possibly js with a server side language) will be more benificial than a Dw specific tutorial.

The days of visually creating a website using Dw are long gone, and not to be recommended.

I've been working with Dreamweaver for about 20 years. From a designers perspective I don't like using Wordpress etc. What I don't understand is why Adobe, if selling the product, don't provide detailed video tutorials.

Because there is nothing to learn beyond setting up a site definition anymore. Dw is no longer a drag and drop designer friendly program, instead it is aimed at users who wish to code, (though not an IDE).
