Missing server behaviours for creating registration page

I was wondering if any could help me, I've been trying to create a registration page for dreamweaver and following the tutorial here from Adobe; https://helpx.adobe.com/ca/dreamweaver/using/building-registration-page.html

But when following I've realised certain features are missing on my version of dreamweaver which is the latest version like when the tutorial says "In the Server Behaviors panel (Window > Server Behaviors), click the Plus (+) button and select User Authentication > Check New Username from the pop‑up menu." the user authentication option isn't appearing for me when selecting server behaviours.

so how would I find this option on the newest version of dreamweaver or how would I do this step on the newest version of dreamweaver if there is a new method of adding user authentication?

thanks for help in advance,

Which versions of PHP are installed on your local testing server and your remote hosting server? It's important to work in a compatible server environment.

If you're not sure, create a new, blank document with the following code in it.

<?php phpinfo() ?>

SaveAs test.php and upload to servers to run it.

Really, you need to be looking at DMXzone or Webassist for some up to date extensions that do something similiar.

As far as I know Adobe has never updated the server behaviours and if so you shouldn't even be using them. They are outdated and possibly won't even work when you deploy your website to a remote host IF they are using the latest versions of php and wont work if you are creating a website locally using XAMPP or MAMP given they will most probably be using the lastest versions of php.

The tutorial you are using must be fairly old, from 2012 or so?.

Server behaviors are no longer part of the program. Adobe removed them after CS6. They were working on it for a time, but gave up on updating them in order to spend more resources on getting the bugs worked out of the program.

Aside from hand-coding, there are a couple paid extensions out there that can help.
