Bootstrap version in DW

[toshi_esumi]

Does the version of Bootstrap stay the same unless I upgrade my DW? Or does the Bootstrap can upgrade/change automatically while keep using the same version of DW? I'm currently using DW 20.1 and when I created a new page looks like it sets up files for Bootstrap 4.4.1. Would this stay the same?

It depends on how you setup the site:

I know it has two options 3.4 or 4.4. But I beilve it was 3.3 and 4.3 in 19.x, wasn't it? I'm asking if this could change like 3.5 and 4.5 when it goes to 20.2? or never change until 21.x?

DW does not automatically update Bootstrap & jQuery for you.  If you want to use the latest Bootstrap / jQuery releases, you'll have to download them yourself or change the references in your code to scripts hosted on CDNs like StackPath and jQuery.com

https://code.jquery.com/

I should also mention that it's up to you to ensure your markup is compatible with newer scripts.  Bootstrap 3x and 4x are not interchangeable.

Still missing my point. DW updated Bootstrap version between 19.x and 20.1. I would assume same thing would happen when 21.1 comes out. But I would also assume it wouldn't change between 20.1 and 20.2. That's what I wanted to confirm.

I'm talking about "when I create a new page". Of course I know it wouldn't change the bootstrap versions for existing page I created with older version of DW.

No, I don't think I'm missing anything. There is no set schedule on Bootstrap & JQ updates.  They eventually come to DW when the team decides to send them out.  And it rarely happens immediately.  You may wait several months or a year before you see the latest version added to DW.
