Project Seven extensions installed but not "showing" in Dreamweaver

Intro

I'm a long time user of Dreamweaver and Extensions by Project Seven.

I maintain 3 websites for my photography business

I'm also really frickin old and not interested in having to learn new software.

 

Problem:

With a recent Dreamwear upgrade the Extension disappeared from Dreamweaver.  If I look in Extension Manager the apps as still there and Active, but are not findable in the app.  I reached out to Project Seven in late November and Gerry Jacobsen replied with the following.  

Subject: Re: Have you run into this?

 

Hi Marv,

Yes, that indicates a corruption in one of the Dreamweaver menu xml files.

See this tech note for instructions on how to fix and work around this issue:

https://www.projectseven.com/products/ex-man/info.htm#cc-issue

Be sure to follow all of the steps.

Regards,

Gerry Jacobsen, PVII

 

Unfortunately, I was swamped in Nov and Dec and just went to fix the problem, and as many of you know Project Seven is now gone, along with their website.

 

Questions:

1. Did anyone have this same problem and "copy the referenced" webpage with the solution?  Or remember the steps to restore the items (No it's not on the WayBack sitehttp://web.archive.org/ ).

2. Does anyone know where I might find the XML file for Project Seven - I have done a search in /program files/adobe and program files x86 and a million XML files come up - I don't want to delete the wrong one.

 

Any help or guidance would be greatly appreciated.

 

Thanks

Marv

    Hi Marv,

    Thanks for making this post as it helped me immensily to fix my missing P-7 extensions via the Adobe Cleaner tool.  It was a very lengthy process, but I have everything working now.  I can kick myself for not having copied the online manuals before the site went offline, but at least I made some notes here and there which have helped me quite a bit.

    Did you use DMX Zone Extension Manager? I am having trouble with it, when I launch it shows a blank screen. I have contacted DMX Zone and haven't heard back. I have installed my PVII extensions using Anistasiy's Extension Manager. I ran Unified Plugin Installer Agent command line basics in Terminal. When I entered the command to list plugins (./UnifiedPluginInstallerAgent --list all), they all showed up. They also show up in my CC application, Manage plugins. In Dreamweaver, under the menu item "Insert" Project VII appears with the arrow, but when I hover it, nothing shows.

    Any ideas or suggestions? Thank you.

    P.S. I just launched DMX Extension Manager again (wishing, wishing) and discovered this. What the heck is "nwjs"??? It should read "about DMXzone Extension Manager."


    NWJS stands for Node Webkit JavaScript. It is an open source framework for developing desktop applications using web technologies like HTML, CSS and JavaScript. The NWJS framework essentially allows developers to build desktop apps with frontend interfaces powered by web UI frameworks.

     

    Wappler is the DMXzone-made Dreamweaver replacement and includes the best of their powerful extensions, as well as much more!

    Thank you.  Unfortunately, that is missing the info that I need.  It was a work-around for a corruption caused by an Adobe upgrade.

    1. Use the Adobe Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems.

    2. Reinstall DW CC 21.3 from Creative Cloud Desktop App.

    3. Install DMX Zone's free Extension Manager to manage your PVII extensions.

     

    Hope that helps.
