Project Seven extensions installed but not "showing" in Dreamweaver

IntroI'm a long time user of Dreamweaver and Extensions by Project Seven.I maintain 3 websites for my photography businessI'm also really frickin old and not interested in having to learn new software. Problem:With a recent Dreamwear upgrade the Extension disappeared from Dreamweaver.  If I look in Extension Manager the apps as still there and Active, but are not findable in the app.  I reached out to Project Seven in late November and Gerry Jacobsen replied with the following.  Subject: Re: Have you run into this? Hi Marv,Yes, that indicates a corruption in one of the Dreamweaver menu xml files.See this tech note for instructions on how to fix and work around this issue:https://www.projectseven.com/products/ex-man/info.htm#cc-issueBe sure to follow all of the steps.Regards,Gerry Jacobsen, PVII Unfortunately, I was swamped in Nov and Dec and just went to fix the problem, and as many of you know Project Seven is now gone, along with their website.

Dreamweaver 2015 Classic Theme for Dreamweaver 2021

Hello to all members of the community! Heraclitus (Heraclitus of Ephesus, ancient greek philosopher) once said, 'The only constant in life is change.' So, if you can't find a way, create one yourself.. That's what i did because i hated all the code coloring themes of the latest versions of Dreamweaver (2017+). I finally created the *almost* perfect code coloring theme having the same colors as the classic theme of Dreamweaver 2015. I hope you all appreciate my work. I still would like Adobe to address this and create a proper one including it in the next updates in the future. Download this RAR file and follow the instructions: https://www.codelab.gr/dw2015.rar Don't forget to activate the theme after your install it in the DW 2021 settings. I hope everyone likes it!

Using DW on different computers

This may have been answered at some point, but I can't seem to find it after searching the threads. I'm currently taking a beginning DW course.  I've been doing the exercises on my Imac desktop up till this point with no issues.  I also have a laptop with DW that has the same icloud account as the desktop, and all the files seem to stay current on both computers, except for the site definitions (I can't find them on the laptop when opening DW).  I would like to do some work on the laptop when on the go.  My question is: do I have to define the site again on the laptop in order to work on the same materials that I would on the desktop?  Or should I just avoid trying to do work on a specific site on different computers?

Access To Site Stopped?

I was minding my own business, taking care of some minor updates to my 100 DW sites, and all of a sudden, I couldn't see the sites anymore.    In the upper right-hand corner where my sites used to be displayed, I get:     Using file manager, I see the sites under  HomeImac2020 as directory Sites: :     I scrolled it but could not find anything related to the 100 sites I had for years.   That means I cannot access them or update them.   I am using an iMac with the latest OS and version 21.5 of DW..   I am puzzled!   ALSO, the "Manage Site" dialog box comes up empty!  It used to be full of the names of my sites.    I cannot get  DW to see HomeImas2020   Any help would be appreciated   http://lilesnet.com   Paul Liles [email address removed by Moderator - this is to stop spammers from hammering your inbox]

Will Adobe fully update Dreamweaver, commit to developing it, sell it, or let it die a slow death?

I've been using Dreamweaver since it was a Macromedia product and, despite Adobe's best efforts, it is still the most fully featured and useable tool ina web designer/developer's toolbox. So why is Adobe behind with updating the software? All we get is minimal updates for security patches only, and no real innovation from Adobe since CS6 around a decade ago!Adobe likes to ignore the web design/developer comunity, a fact that is shown that Adobe Max hasn't mentioned the software at all for five years.Let's face it, you are milking the product whilst trying to kill it. And now your latest update (May 2025) causes so much frustration with sudden crashes for no reason makes me think you are trying even harder to force people away.So time to step up Adobe.  Are you killing it,  saving it, or going to commit to developing the top tool in web design/development (an area that is growing four times more over than Graphic Design according th the BoLS)?Time for answers...

Contact Form text area is limiting and the form wont center

Finally trying my hand at a contact form - https://pitchlab.net/contact/  before I dive into server side I need to make sure it works properly and there are two issues- minor but annoying: first issue is the textarea for "Message" is behaving like an input in that it is limiting the width you can type.. a text area should allow you to type all the way across.. and finally- the form div wont center - I used a parent container flexbox for the columns and a div wrapping the  form and it wont center..   my parent:.contact_flex_container {width:100%;height:100%;display: flex;justify-content:center;align-items: center;padding-top: 10vh;} my form div: .form_container{justify-content: center;} any help would be appreciated!

Preventing the _notes folders from being created

IssueSome users, particularly those that utilize a version control system like Subversion or Git, do not want the _notes folders to be created by Dreamweaver.The _notes folders are created by Dreamweaver to maintain synchronization information and for Design Notes.Design Notes can be used to to keep track of extra information associated with your documents, such as comments on status of the document (e.g. "in draft" or "complete"). Design Notes can be also shared between users of the same site by checking the Enable Upload Design Notes For Sharing setting. Other than for sharing with other users, the _notes folders are only used by Dreamweaver in their local storage locations and do not need to be uploaded to your server.SolutionTo prevent the _notes folder from being created by Dreamweaver, disable the Maintain Synchronization Information and the Maintain Design Notes settings for your site.For more information, see these articles from the Dreamweaver documentation:"Connect to a remot

Selecting Multiple Lines of Text in CC Using Shift

Just upgraded from Dw CS6 to CC. I used to select a group of text by clicking a line number, holding shift and then clicking another line number but this doesn't seem to be working in CC. I can't find in the MissingManual that this is a feature in CC either. Is this a feature they have removed? Such shame if so! You'd think it doesn't matte as you can drag the mouse still to select multiple lines of text, however the shift-only method is very handy when highlighting a specific line and the scrolling down over a page (or more) and then accurately selecting the next line. I quite like to set my own shortcuts for Dw. If this is a removed feature, is it available to create a shortcut for it? I've had a look but can't seem to see where this would be possible either. Thanks!

Left menu not working right

Something has gone haywire with my website's menu. Compare:https://bassett.net with https://arleneeakle.com.Other than colors they used to work the same. On mine,... look at Replacement "Left Menu" until fixed... at the top. The resulting menu is what I used to have in the left sidebar, like the white/green menu in Arlene's sidebar. But now, I only see a tiny bit of it and most is "off screen". One day it was working fine, and the next it was broken. I noticed it about the same time my husband died and I'm just now having a bit of time to figure out what's wrong. I don't recall making any changes to the website around the time it broke but couldn't swear to it. Two other things about the same time. Like Arlene's right sidebar, I have an image that is at the top of the right menu that is missing. The other is that there is something making the top of the center panel indented. It's much more noticeable on https://www.bassett.net/pages/pets.shtml. Anybody see anything obvious?
