How to open a free web basic account without DW?

Report · Oct 18, 2012

Hi BC gurus

How do I open a BC free account (I am a cloud subscriber) without using DW?

Also, can I use Google Gmail as the email provider since the free account doesn't inlcude mail?

Thanks

Micha

Hi Micha,

You most certainly can use whatever email provider or host that you prefer. It makes no difference as far as the BC site is concerned.

As for setting up the site, it is best to do it in Dreamweaver or Muse so that it ensures it is tied to your cloud account. Here is a video on setting it up in Dreamweaver. Once it is set up you can use whatever program you like to edit the pages or even just use BC itself.

Thanks Brad

I know how to open a site in DW, the problem is that it doesn't say what plan it is just open a new BC Site. Now when I login to BC admin it shows it's a Basic site on a TRIAL not one of my free ones. Is this Adobe clomsy attitude?

Cheers
