Echtzeit Vorschau für Handys

Hallo, ich weiss, dass es diese Vorschau mit dem QR Code nicht mehr gibt, aber wie kann ich meine Seite nun über Dreamwaever testen, ohne immer alles bereitstellen zu müssen?

Beste Grüsse

When that feature was deprecated the only remaining ways to preview your site were the following: https://helpx.adobe.com/dreamweaver/using/previewing-pages.html . For the most part testing on phones should be able to be done in your browser via the device preview, but it's always recommended to test in some live devices or use apps like Simulator on a Mac to preview on an iPad/iPhone.

The best way I can think of to test your site across multiple devices, is to:

1. Install a local testing server like the free XAMPP.
2. You then place your site's root folder within the XAMPP installation's htdocs folder.
3. From there you run XAMPP as Administrator
4. Start the Apache service
5. Open a command prompt and type in "ipconfig" and hit Enter (no quotes) to obtain your Local IP Address
6. On any device connected to your local network, enter your machine's local IP address followed by the site root folder name (ex: 123.4.5.6/MySite).

From there on out, any change you make that's saved in the site will only require a refresh of the browser for the devices connected to your local network to see it.

Hello Jon, I have still a question. It is working, but I am not shure how to set up Dreamweaver. Should I work eith the testing server? Or on my local files? Greetings

To specify my issue:

I have a site on my computer. I have the same site on the web. Now I want to work on the site, see the changes and when I am done, I want to update the site on the web.

All you need to do in DW is define the local root folder for your site that is inside your htdocs folder. You then define the Remote server with your FTP info as usual. There's no need to set up a testing server within DW's settings because the local root folder is already "on the testing server" by being saved in XAMPP installation's htdocs folder.

Work directly on those local files, then upload via FTP as usual.
