bootstrap 4.2.1 snippets missing

[desireeh68711614]

Beginner here. Just started using dreamweaver and am creating my first site. Not sure what happened but I can no longer see the 4.2.1 snippets and when I try to insert one it tells me its not compatible. Can someone tell me how I can restore the snippets? Or should I start using 4.3.1 and if so - what do I need to do to make what I created so far compatible.

Using a Mac and Dreamweaver 19.1

thanks.

There is not much of a difference between the two versions. In my opinion, it is safe to use the latest version without any input from you.

Thanks Ben. Is there anything I need to do to convert my existing CSS file to 4.3.1?

You'll find the latest Bootstrap on StackPath.

https://www.bootstrapcdn.com/

Or use CSS & JS files hosted on the CDN.

As Nancy OShea​ has said, just update the support files and all is well.

Think of it as an omen. Someone is trying to telling you its not a good idea.

I agree with Ben.  If  using Bootstrap 4, you can safely mix the incremental dot releases from the same version  such as 4.1 with 4.2 etc...   But you must not mix  major versions like 2 or 3  with 4.   The classes and markup code are not interchangeable.
