Dreamweaver 18 - save without putting

[MikiWork]

How can save a file in Dreamweaver 18 WITHOUT having it automatically put the file. I am often working on pages and EVERY TIME I save it also PUTS. I like to save frequently and I have not always finished my work. I don't always want the saved paged PUT.

Thanks

I'm not sure about DW 18, but if it's anything like older versions of DW, it's a setting in your Site Management.  Edit the project, go to SERVERS, double-click the server, go to ADVANCED, and uncheck the box next to "Automatically upload files to server on Save".

Thanks for this reply. The problem is, The box indicated in the image above is UNCHECKED on my Server as is the box under the Testing Server to automatically push - but it's still pushing.

Do I have a bug?

I can't say, for sure.  If you are looking directly at the file on the server and the last modified date changes when you save locally, then there is definitely something wrong.  Worth going to https://tracker.adobe.com and submitting a bug report.

I followed your link to the tracker and tried to add a bug - but Dreamweaver was not listed under the drop down menu under Products.

I'm stunned.  Granted, I've never submitted a bug for DW, all my bug submits are for ColdFusion, but I can't believe that Adobe doesn't have DW as a product on their bug tracking site.

Apologies, MikiWork.  I had no idea.  Not sure what to do, now.

Good news.  There is another page for reporting bugs or requesting features, and I checked.. the product list includes DW.

Adobe uses the uservoice site for DW bugs and feature requests...

DW should never PUT files to remote server on Save unless you gave it that instruction in your site settings.

See screenshot.
