As every forum does things differently, if there were such a
beast (I'm not aware of any that are specific to a forum), it would
need to be specific to the forum itself, so perhaps check on the
forum creator's site to see if they have something available for
facilitating editing in Dreamweaver.
Also, the forums at the forum creator's site typically have
clues/tips/instructions about how to go about modifying the forum.
Some even have "skins" that you can use to give a new look to the
forum.
I've seen a variety of forums (PHP and otherwise), some of
which may only need changing the CSS and swapping out some images
to perform any edits, but I've also seen some that use XML files to
store layout content and you have to modify the XML files and make
other changes to images and CSS.
Maybe ask in the Dreamweaver general or application
development forums to see if anyone has some suggestions for easy
to edit/modify forum software:
