Where is the "Structure Insert Panel in Dreamweaver.  I want to insert a fluid grid div so that it is not static on a row and can me moved around and I don't get that option when I insert a regurlar div.  CS6 used to have a insert fluidgriddiv but I don't see anything like that in 2021.  I'm thinking bootstrap is the deal but I don't know anything about bootstrap so please advise.

    FluidGrid Layouts are deprecated.  They were not great for responsive design and also very temperamental to work with. So good riddance.   Use Bootstrap.   See screenshot below.

     

    • Define your local site folder and then go to File > New > Starter Templates > Bootstrap Templates. 
    • Choose a layout and hit the CREATE button. 
    • Go to File > SaveAs > index.html. 

    Have fun!

    The fluid grid layouts were removed back in 2017 and are outdated code by today's standards.  If you are looking for a framework to help you design grid layouts quicker, Bootstrap is good for that. You can also look into the CSS Grid as well.

     

    If you have an example you can share of what you are working on we can advise on how to duplicate that in Bootstrap.
