I am really starting to NOT LIKE Adobe Dreamweaver!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

1. Why isn't my text NOT showing up in the search engines?

2. Why do I have to CLEAN THE CACHE in Google and other browsers in order to see the changes in Dreamwewaver?!!!!

Do I have to save each html and css file BEFORE I browse? Isn't the css, bootstrap and js supposed to save when I save the html?!

I really find this tool to be EXTREMELY difficult! I have been trying to master it for almost 15 years now and it's always the same old hassle!!!!

Yes, I am aggravated. Sorry.

    This has no relevance to Dreamweaver

    1. It is the way search engines are coded. See here for more Why isn't my site showing up on search engine results pages? | Search Engine Visibility V1 - GoDaddy Help AU
    2. As Nancy has said, Chrome has a very sticky cache. For cache busting see Strategies for Cache-Busting CSS | CSS-Tricks

    The best way to work with DW is to get to know how to code in HTML and CSS while some knowledge of JS is useful.

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Chrome is not my favorite browser for developing because it has a very sticky cache.  Google thinks that makes Chrome a better browser for the web.  And it does for most things.  But it's positively annoying when you're building & previewing changes to your own web pages.   I use Firefox instead of Chrome.

    If you're married to Chrome, use the tips below.  But you'll need to keep the Dev Toolbar Window open at all times.
