Template Issue: areas outside of editable regions are not grayed out and are editable

Question

Recently this issue has emerged. I have a template with some editable regions. The non-editable regions are the header, footer, etc. But whether it's existing pages based on this template or new pages created from this template, the non-editable regions are editable and not grayed out like they used to be.

The pages are still connected to the template because when I update the template, the pages also update to reflect the change.

I didn't have this problem before.

What I've tried:

* Updated to most recent Dreamweaver

* Restarted Dreamweaver and the computer

* Created a new page and made sure the box is checked that links it to the template when it's updated

Nothing is fixing it. Ideas? Is it a bug?

I can't reproduce it on my side.

Is template saved in the local site's Template's folder with a dot dwt file extension?

Are you in Design view?

I discovered what's wrong. But I don't have a solution yet. When I store the site files on onedrive, I have the issue. When I move the site to my local C: drive, the issue goes away.

There appears to be some permissions issue where onedrive isn't allowing Dreamweaver some access. I contacted an IT in our company to see if he can help.

Thanks, Jon and Nancy, for the help!

Could you share the entire code of one of the Child pages made from the Template?
