I have recently upgraded to DW8 from MX and a great deal of extensions that I am used to using are no longer showing; is there any reason why, and how can I make the extensions visible again?

Thanks

Mat

Save the extension package in the Dreamweaver 8/Downloaded Extensions folder of your installed Dreamweaver folder.
In the Extension Manager, select File > Install Extension. In Dreamweaver, select Commands > Manage Extensions to start the Extension Manager.
The Extension Manager automatically installs the extension from the Downloaded Extension folder into Dreamweaver.

Some extensions need Dreamweaver to restart before you can use them. If you are running Dreamweaver when you install the extension, you might be prompted to quit and restart the application.

To view basic information on the extension after its installation, go to the Extension Manager (Commands > Manage Extensions) in Dreamweaver.

Hi
I have the same problem with downloaded and installed extensions not showing up in menues as expected. I did exactly as suggested.

The particular extension is the "Publish Web Command for Dreamweaver MX 2004, V1.1.0", which allows to use Dreamweaver to publish files with Http protocol (as done by Frontpage). After installing the extension, the Manage Sites/Remote info/Access menue should have an option "Frontpage". But, this one does not show up. Any ideas what to do?
TIA
