Hi,I'm having an issue with Dreamweaver where when I try to connect my site to an FTP server I get the following error: "An FTP error occurred - cannot make connection to host. User limit reached or not authorized to make the connection due to local firewall blocking FTP data."I've seen a lot of other people on this forum with the same problem, but no repeatable solutions. Is this just a problem with Dreamweaver now? I am working with Dreamweaver version 21.3, on Windows 11 (Version 22H2, OS Build 22621.1848).

This is incredibly frustrating. Let me run it down for you. If I enter http://localhost:8888/destiny.com/Pages/home.php in any web browser and am running the latest version of MAMP, I get a perfect preview of any of the PHP websites that I have created. Everything works perfectly.    I have setup the Testing server perfectly in Dreamweaver, but nothing works correctly. Sometimes I get a blank preview until I select Design, then Preview. When I go back to live I get a preview without any of the CSS files or graphics. If I preview in a browser I get a weird http://127.0.0.1:55006/preview/app/index.html link instead of the home.php file because Dreamweaver is generating some kind of weird preview file, and again, none of the css or images. Here's a screen capture of the weirdness. I admit that I have not updated this site in about 3 years. I have kept Dreamweaver updated, but now I need to work on the site and it's impossible to see what I'm doing inside Dreamwea

I haven't created websites in Dreamweaver in over 20 years. Back then, we just needed to worry about desktops. And even that was 800x600 with an occassional SVGA card. The coolest thing we did was rollovers. I like this new concept of Mobile-First. But i see no discussion on bitmap resolutions. E.g., do you use 72ppi or 96 for a bit of wiggle room (read: enlarging). If you're starting with mobile first, those images will look all pixelated on the desktop and perhaps even on tablets. So, why are we building low resolution content first? Seems like it would be easier and safer to start with desktop first. Images can always be safely reduced. Or do you use 3 sets of images for bandwidth considerations? I have not looked into Bootstrap yet, btw.Jaydouble

Hello, Created with Dreamweaver, I want to change the 324 value displayed in the photo above. This value does not appear in the css file, nor in the HTM file. Can you help me ?    

Hi, Every time I try and create a new site inside a folder that has an existing site I get this error message "The root folder you have chosen is inside the folder for site 'xxx'. This may cause some operations, such as synchronization, to work incorrectly. Proceed anyway?" How can I get rid of this problem? Can I proceed anyway? I'm running Dreamweaver 2019 on  MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 Thanks. Mark

I have been using Dreamweaver forever.  Now with the advent of new image formats (.webp), DW does not render the images in design mode nor does it gather the size information.  There is no support for that nor is Adobe going to provide it.  There are some workarounds but they are very ineffective. I am starting to look for a replacement product and wonder if there is anything out there.The features that I use the most are:Templates where I have 3 or four generic templates that I use for new pages.  My site has 2,500 unique pages for the templatesInclude from the library of standard code for things that are included on the pages like my order (text base box) and images of various sizes.I use CSS extensively to control font sizes, scalability, and Project VII menus and various features.I would like to have a Windows Desktop version that DOES NOT depend on a vendor staying in business or having a link to a website or cloud solution to make the product work. For example

While scrolling in Dreamweaver, there is noticable issue visible. A horizontal warping of the screen in the same place at various speeds. I tried this on multiple monitors and even swapped out my graphics card. Before I reinstall Windows 11 I want to know if anyone else is experiencing anything like this...

do you know if a new version of dreamweaver is coming? i see a lot of products in beta, but nothing for dreamweaver since version 21.3

An FTP error occurred = cannot make a connection to host.User limit reached or not authorised to make the connection due to local firewall blocking FTP data. How do I fix this

I am trying to create a contact form for a webpage in Dreamweaver and my php code displays an error message saying "syntax error, unexpected '@'". I have marked the line where the error is being detected in red. My code is below: <?php if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] === 'POST') {     $name = $_POST['name'];     $email = $_POST['email'];     $subject = $_POST['subject'];     $message = $_POST['message'];       // Email address where you want to receive the form submissions     $to = ‘EMAIL REMOVED BY MODERATOR’;       // Email subject     $emailSubject = 'New Contact Form Submission';       // Email content     $emailContent = "Name: $name\n";     $emailContent .= "Email: $email\n";     $emailContent .= "Subject: $subject\n";     $emailContent .= "Message: $message\n";       // Send the email     $headers = "From: $n

The File Activity window will not open or display for me.  Typically I had two ways of seeing this winodw:1. When I FTP files to my web server using DW.2. Click on the tiny icon that looks like a globe found at the bottom of the Files window. Neither method will display the File Activity window.  When I mouse over the globe icon, the popup hint says, "Click here to see the File Activity window".  But when I click, the hint changes to say, "Refresh (F5)", which is the button to the left. To be clear, I am NOT talking about the FTP Log. 

I have installed Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 from the original CD on my Windows 10 computer When I tried to activate it, I entered the serial code that came with the CD. I chose the connect via the internet option, but it would not connect. Connecting by phone didn't work either. Question:  Do you know a way for me to re-activate this old, familiar product? I know that Adobe bought Macromedia some time ago. The program is installed, activated, and running properly on another of my computers, but it is inconvenient for me to keep running it there, which is why I installed it on my relatively new Dell notebook running Windows 10.

Inconsistent Feature: When Dreamweaver shows the html-page on the viewing area, an updated jpg-image may not show up properly, but the older version shows. So, does Dreamweaver Put a wrong file to the server, or at least different from what was shown to the user. This could be misleading when updating content for web. Thanks.

I have looked all over the internet for help, unable to find what I am looking for. I needing to rotate an image without rotating the MASK.The image is letters, numbers, pretty much resembles code in a circle.I need this circle to rotate infinitely without the mask rotating along with it. The circle is under the mask.I am using .png for the circle and .png for the mask. This is the only step I have taken.

Pourquoi Adobe demande-t-il 24,19 € pour son abonnement à Dreamwaver alors que MicroSoft demande 10 € par mois ???? N'est-ce pas exagéré ???Avant on pouvait acheter carrément le programme comme je l'ai fait en son temps.Hélas ma version Dreamwaver 8 ne fonctionne que sur Windows Vista.

I have the Files window open, and I'm currently viewing both Remote Server on the left side, and Local Files on the right side. I am able to view hidden files on the Remote Server side. I am unable to view them on the Local Files side. In the past, there used to be a button on the top right corner of this window that could ultimately allow you to view hidden files. That button is not there currently. On my Mac itself, I have enabled the showing of hidden files by using the Command + Shift + . keys. I am still unable to view hidden files in Dreamweaver. How can I view them?

Hi Guys,I have a strange one that you might be a be able to solve for me please... I use the latest version of Dreamweaver CC 21.3 (Windows 10), and have been using some of my existing web pages as templates for creating new ones - but for some reason, after deleting the previous copy (or when adding the new copy), the text box suddenly shrinks down to half the width.eg. the template page I used is https://mindtraining.net/motivational-quotes/baseball.php (which works fine) but when I change the copy in order to create a new webpage, it suddenly looks like this: https://mindtraining.net/motivational-quotes/racquetball.phpAt times, with each single character of copy that I delete (of the old copy), the text box literally begins to inch inward, with each letter I delete.   Fascinating, but annoying : )    If any of you great codesters have some thoughts, would be extremely appreciative.  Many thanks,Craig T 

 Hi, may i know any other good slider show coding suggested? 

How Can I fix this problem with menu? it's underlapping the bottom menu     

These days I mostly use Dreamweaver 2023 for inline styling in other files. I forget the html syntax and css sometimes when I just want to add a snippet of inline styling to a CMS doc for example.  So, I would like to be able to just go to Design View and use the non code styling UI to create what I need and then copy the code to paste elsewhere. I can't find the UI toolbar that lets me do this.  I just need to be able to select the text and change color, font, size, etc. Thank you.

I have set up an SFTP connection for 2 sites. (FTP does not work.) Site one works great - I can see files on remote server in Remote server view and can get and put files. Site 2 set up same way, but I cannot see the files on the remote server in the Remote server view. When I test the connection to the server, I get the "Dreamweaver connected to your Web server successfully." message. I have googled, but none of the things I found worked or actually dealt with SFTP. I am not a programmer or developer; I only do very basic things in html files. I am using DreamWeaver v 21.3, and according to my Creative Cloud account, it is up to date.

I'm having a lot of problems getting this working.  Currently Dreamweaver says it's can't locate Git and that I can add custom paths in Prefrences.  I'm not sure what I'm supposed to be putting in these fields.  I've tried E:\Program FIles\Git\git-cmd.exe and E:\Program FIles\Git\git-bash.exe, neither of which have worked.  I don't know what else to try here.  Git is installed, Github works fine.  The paths are correct as far as I can tell.
