    Hi @Pam6C15.

    Welcome to the Dreamweaver community.

     

    Dreamweaver is a code editing and site management tool.  It assumes you have basic web design & coding skills.  Why else would you use it, right? 

     

    As with any tool, DW is only as good as the person using it.  Or as I often say, tools don't build websites, people do.

    Hi Pam - You might find P7 extensions helpful, they do a range of extensions that will help you build layouts, menus and other other web features likem galleries .... I would advise start learning the basics of HTML and CSS too...

    Paul:
    Thank you so much, I am not savvy enough to figure out coding so I will be
    canceling my subscription, I guess I need a software that already has
    website templates. I heard of one called Webflow, are you familiar with it?
    Is it free?
    Thanks so much for input.

    Nancy if I cancelled the subscription to dreamweaver does that include the Adobe creative cloud? And can I link the website I will make on the domain on google to the Adobe Portfolio? Also, do I uninstall woordpress or delete the folders? I am sorry to be a pain.

               Thank you,

                    Pam


    I don't know what you ordered.  A paid Creative Cloud plan would be a Photography plan, All Apps plan or a Single Apps plan.  Check your account portal.  If all you ordered was Dreamweaver and nothing else, then you're out of luck.

    Go ahead and delete WordPress files from your computer.  To use WordPress, you need commercial web hosting on a server with PHP & MySQL.  Google Sites can't handle WordPress.
