I have just subscribed to DW2021. Working to revive a now defunct site created with Macromedia Dreamweaver. How can I use the old library and template files in the new site?

Since you're rebuilding the site anyway, you might want to consider switching from proprietary Templates & Library Items to more powerful server-side includes.

SSIs will save you a lot of time when updating. Edit just one file, save & upload it. Done. All the magic happens on the server instead of inside Dreamweaver.

I'm missing something here. I copied the old library and template folders to the new site folder. When I open a page from the old site, it recognizes that it uses a template and cites the correct template. But I don't get templates or library on the assets panel. I'm confused. Thanks.
