Go to Site > Manage Sites or New Site.

 

First select the local site folder's location.  In my example, I have Wamp server installed on my primary hard drive. And my default web folder is www.  If you're using Xampp or Mamp, your folder will be htdocs.   See screenshots below.

 

 

Basic Tab - localhost

 

Advanced Tab - Server Model

 

Post back if you have any questions.

    I'm still confused.  I have defined a site.  

    Local Site folder:  C:\Users\Gail Thomas\Documents\Websites\JamestownClass

    My original roject used coldfusion originally developed with dreamweaver CS5 (decades ago)

    the original folder definiions :

    _mmServerScripts  (this folder is also under htrdocs)

    cgi-bin (this folder is empty)

    cgi-php (the folders  of this folder arer also in htdocs)

    etc (the folders  of this folder arer also in htdocs)

    htdocs  (this contains all of the source files for my site)

    Scripts

    Templates

    tmp

     

    I think(?) I can delete the folders above htdocs, but Scrips and tmp contain other files

    It lookd like you placed the testing server in the local definition.

    From your pics and message,  I assume the my htdocs is what you called www

    I don't see Where/How to define /place a testing server.

     

    any help is appreciated.

    Gail
