Set Permissions

If you have a problem with an extension, you can always try deleteing your user Configuration folder. This is where all extensions and modifications are written too. You need to quit Dreamweaver, delete the folder, then lauch Dreamweaver and you should be good to go.

On Mac the folder you want is
Hard disk: Users: <username>: Library: Application Support: Macromedia: Dreamweaver 8: Configuration

Windows:
C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 8\Configuration

The Set Permissions extension doesn't work with DW8 and DW8 is supposed to have this functionality built in. From what I can tell either the Mac version doesn't come with set permissions built in or installing the Set Permissions extension kills the functionality that is already there. Can anyone confirm this?

I have never seen Set Permissions in the contextual menu when right clicking a file in the FIle window on the remote server side until I installed Set Permissions 1.0. After that, like manxman, I get the message about it only working with 7.0.1 or above when I select Set Permissions form the contextual menu. I can use Extension Manager to remove the extension but then there is again no option to set permissions.

Hello DVmaster,

You don't need the extension for DW 8 ... its built in. Just go to the remote
view of the files and right click on the folder you want to set. You will
see a set permissions option.
