Maybe.Mac. user , Tahoe Thanks for any help of guidance  !

When I try to use the deactivation feature within Flash Builder, it say “Deactivation was not successful.  Please try again.”  

Hello,In Dreamweaver, I would like to find a pre-defined tool that let us create this type of vertical navigation bar. Is it possible to create and manage it easily (without coding) inside dreamweaver ?   

Hello everyone,I'm troubleshooting an unusual issue on a website that contains dynamic content and planning resources for homeowners.The website is:paloaltokitchenremodel.com/After publishing content updates, most visitors immediately receive the latest version of the page. However, a small percentage of users occasionally continue seeing older content for a period of time, even though the server is delivering the current version correctly.The behavior is inconsistent and difficult to reproduce. In some cases, refreshing the page resolves the issue. In others, users continue seeing stale content until browser cache data is cleared or enough time passes.I've already verified server responses, reviewed cache-control headers, tested multiple browsers and devices, validated CDN configuration, checked DNS propagation, and compared behavior across different networks. No application errors are being recorded, and the issue appears isolated to content delivery or caching layers.The website inc

Hi everybody, my copy of Dreamweaver, (2021), as stopped working. This started yesterday. When I open it, it never opens! It just stops responding and you just have to force quit the application. Is this version out of date or is there some other reason for the issue? Thanks for your help.

I have been on the phone to my host for ages trying to get DW to connect with the host, no luck. They even went to the trouble of downloading DW and testing it, and it worked so the problem must be at my end. Are their any little secret settings I may have wrong that is preventing me from connecting? I’ve done all of the suggestions on the error boxes that come up. 

Hi everyone, I recently migrated my creative portfolio over to Adobe Portfolio and configured my custom domain about a month and a half ago. Since making the switch, I have run into strange indexing discrepancies and unexpected drops in search metrics. Whenever I inspect my domain and check page metrics on this website, the authority indicators look noticeably lower than before the move, and several subpages appear to be flagged for redirect latency and duplicate canonical tags. Has anyone else encountered situations where the built-in URL handling or SSL certificate configuration in Adobe Portfolio confuses search bot crawlers or causes audit utilities to miscalculate domain equity? In addition, Google Search Console seems unusually slow to pick up the updated sitemap, which I suspect might be worsening the authority drop. I would appreciate any advice on DNS adjustments, header fixes, or troubleshooting steps within the Adobe dashboard to ensure external crawlers and analyzers read t

Whenever I try to open the assets option under the windows tab in Dreamweaver, the application will stop responding and eventually crash

My Imac was running of od disk so I bought a new 20T WD External DriveI moved my site from the internal drive to the external drive.I edited my webpages as usual just changing Dreamweaver to point to the external drive.For the first time I added a new page and then I went to TOOLS>INTERT>TEMPLATES, the option did not work (i.e. nothing happened). When I went to select my standard template, there was nothing there so I guess my templates did not move with the site move?How to I get the select template feature to work again?

higgsy.comon this page is my new menu but when opened it overlays the content.  Do I just move all the content to the right or is there a better way to fix it? many thanks in advance, David

SummaryIn Dreamweaver 2021 (confirmed on versions 21.8 and 21.8.1, Build 15907), the CSS Designer panel does not reliably discover and parse external stylesheets that are already linked via <link> tags present in a document before it is opened — so the Selectors pane shows no classes (or an incomplete set), and the Property Inspector's Class dropdown offers no classes to apply in Design view. This happens even though the linked stylesheets are valid, present on disk, and correctly resolve.By contrast, if the same external stylesheet is attached to a document using CSS Designer's own "+" > Attach Existing CSS File > Link function, it works correctly: the file appears in Sources, its selectors populate, and the Property Inspector's Class dropdown offers its classes as expected, both immediately and in later sessions.EnvironmentOS: Windows 10 Dreamweaver: version 21.8.1, Build 15907 (also reproduced identically on version 21.8) Reproduced independently on two separate physical

Hi Adobe Community,I'm using Adobe Dreamweaver to work on a website called OnlineConvers, which provides a large collection of online calculators and conversion tools.Many of the pages use HTML, CSS and JavaScript, but each calculator has different formulas and input requirements.What would be the best Dreamweaver workflow for managing a website with hundreds of similar but individually different pages?I'm particularly interested in using Dreamweaver templates, reusable components, shared CSS, JavaScript files, and Git.What approach would you recommend for keeping the project easy to maintain as the number of calculators grows?Website: onlineconvers.com

I’m working on a photography-focused website in Dreamweaver and I’m trying to find the right balance between image quality and website performance.Photography websites often need large, high-resolution images for portfolios, weddings, events, and galleries, but using too many large files can make pages load slowly.I’d be interested to know how other Dreamweaver users handle this. Do you usually resize and compress images before uploading them, use WebP, or rely on another workflow?I came across this photography website while looking at different examples of image-heavy sites:properpix.comThe gallery looks quite image-focused, so it made me wonder what the best approach is for keeping this type of website visually strong without sacrificing loading speed.Would appreciate any recommendations for image optimization and responsive image handling in Dreamweaver.

Some of my products only ship throughout California.  Is there a code to add to my website in Dreamweaver to prohibit buyers from purchasing my California only available products. I was told that there was, but I do not know how to create nor implement this.  Please advise. 

Do you have any plans for ever porting more apps to ARM-based systems (or at least allowing emulation)? Dreamweaver in particular. It’s been over two years since Premiere has been ported and no real news since then even with the apps currently in beta

I have atlast had time to explore DW more fully and AI offered these suggestions which have got DW working again for me:How to Correctly Set Up Your Site Open Site Setup: In Dreamweaver’s top menu, go to Site > New Site... (or Site > Manage Sites... if editing an existing definition). Configure General Settings: Site Name: Give your project a recognizable name (e.g., My Static Site). Local Site Folder: Click the folder icon and choose the local folder on your Mac where your .html files reside. Leave "Servers" Empty: In the left panel of the Site Setup window, skip the Servers tab completely. Static HTML does not require a local network or testing server definition. Save: Click Save and then Done. Your files will populate the Files panel on the right.  How to Preview Your Pages in Safari Dreamweaver includes built-in preview mechanisms that handle port binding automatically.   Real-Time Preview (Recommended): Open any .html file from your project. Click the Real-Time Preview

Here is a screenshot of what I am seeing... 

Past updates have removed PVII extensions, but I’ve been able to reinstall with the DMXzone manager. But 21.8  causes DMX to report “menu.xml is corrupted”, and the Anastasiy Manager now flags the plugins as corrupted.After removing  21.8, and restoring 21.7 I still can’t get the extensions back.Does anyone have any info or ideas on how to restore the extensions, or is it just a lost cause?

Since Dreamweaver 21.8 (on a Mac running 26.5.2) some on my old Project VII extensions have disappeared. Not all of them, but more than half. I had installed them using DMX Zone Extension Manager 1.3.0 (newest) years ago. The missing extensions still show as active in DMX. Now, with Dreamweaver 21.8, If I try to uninstall an extension (to then re-install it) I get an error saying that my menu.xml file is corrupt. There seems to be multiple files named that associated with Dreamweaver!Any thoughts?

Hi everyone, With old-school design tools like Dreamweaver fading out, what are freelancers using for rapid client deployments now? I'm currently looking at streamlined, AI-driven alternatives like https://inminutes.app/ to launch complete business landing pages instantly. For anyone who has shifted away from classic software to modern visual AI engines, how do they hold up regarding custom UI flexibility and overall deployment speed? Thanks!

Hi, so far DW (current version 21.6) had worked ok. Suddenly under current version OS Tahoe 26.1 (25B78) it stopped to function. I have a site definition to my local html css etc files on my MacBook. Nevertheless, to open the local html files within DW via "open in browser" doesn’t work, no matter what browser I added to the browser list. Since years this error has not occured and also restarting DW or deleting / readding browsers to the browser list doesn’ fix the situation. Also rebuilding the local site index didn’t fix it. What’s the reason for this error and how can I fix it? Thanks a lot!

This is what happens with the encrypted question mark.  This is with a normal question mark.I use Dreamweaver for more than 2 decades. This was never a problem. I don't know why the query string is added anyway. In 21.6 this was not added. 

Your latest Dreamweaver download doesn’t work.   It wont allow me to install any of my extensions ( It says "file is corrupt" on every extension when i use either ZXP installer or Anastasiys ).  However , when I roll back to the previous version of Dreamweaver it allows me to install all my extensions with no problem ( proving there is no issue with any extension ) - but is unreliable and crashes whenever I open a PHP page. This has never happened before until recently and the pages in question have been working for years,  Please can you help me
