  1. Text edit displayed but not saved

    I changed a line of text in the Dreamweaver editor for a JavaScript file. The text was changed on the screen and the save "*" was removed when I hit save. However, when I uploaded the changed file, the change was not reflected. I verified the uploaded file was not changed on the website in the JavaScript console. I closed the editor and reopened it, The original text was still present! I updated it again and re-saved. This time the change persisted and the upload was good. There were no error messages or other indications of something going awry. This…

    Hi Michael,

    Thank you for providing all the details and clarity on the issue you are facing. Detailed description of the issue helps us in investigating the issue.

    We tried to recreate the issue internally on macOS 10.14.6 and the issue is not reproducible. Hence it would great if you can write to us when you encounter the issue again. Please have Dw in the same state for us to investigate the issue since the same is not reproducible on all machines.

    Have a pleasant day.

    Thanks,
    Nayan

  2. Dreamweaver 20.1 Slow

    I find 20.1 slow.
    Often when loading or closing a file the screen will go black and the tool bar will say not responding.

    Moving between files has a delay.

    OS Win10

    Hi,

    Thanks for reporting.

    1) Are you using large/heavy size files in Dreamweaver, can you specify the size of files you are using
    2) Does this issue happens while opening and navigating between, different file types or specific file extensions in Dreamweaver.
    3) Are you opening files from local drive or from any network location
    4) How many files at least should be opened for the issue to be reproducible, while you navigate between the files.

    Thanks

  3. DW 2020: Inserting HTML building blocks from side Panel not working on click!

    'Insert' via side panel for HTML building blocks, say nav, header, article, section, does not work, does not 'insert'; the only way I get this done is via Menu – Insert etc., from insert panel it is not clickable!

  5. Files sorted by Modified in wrong order on remote server

    When viewing files on the remote server, clicking on Modified to sort by reverse chronological order (most recent on top) works in the opposite order than what is expected; even more unexpectedly, the identical action on the right pane (local files) does work as expected. Which means that the same arrow, whether up or down, identifies opposite sort orders depending on which side of the Files window you are working on.

  7. Copy/Paste not working

    I can't copy or paste on the OSX Dreamweaver CC 2018.
    I tried deleting the temp cahce file, restarting DW, and closing the file within DW and opening it again.

    The problem is I can't copy FROM DW, and paste into anything else. Pasting within DW works.

  9. Apply Source Formatting Removes Spaces Around Tags

    My tag library is set to "No line breaks" for certain tags like <a>, <strong>, and <span>. When I apply source formatting, DW CC 2019 removes all the spaces on both sides of the tag and its closing tag. So this:
    <p> Lorem ipsum <strong>dolor</strong> sit amet elit</p>

    Becomes this:
    <p> Lorem ipsum<strong>dolor</strong>sit amet elit</p>

    thereby squishing ipsumdolorsit into one word.

  10. Apply source formatting messing up my php

    The following valid php:

    <?php

    while ( $myrow = mysqli_fetch_array( $result ) ) {

                $caId = $myrow[&#39;caId&#39;];

                $guildId = $myrow[ &#39;guildId&#39; ];

                $caName = $myrow[ &#39;caName&#39; ];

                $caType = $myrow[ &#39;caType&#39; ];

                $caCommand = $myrow[ &#39;caCommand&#39; ];

                $caMessage = $myrow[ &#39;caMessage&#39; ];

    ?>

    turns into the following invalid php after apply source formatting. Notice the spaces and or linebreaks inserted before and after MySQL field names inside single quotes.

    <?php

                            while ( $myrow = mysqli_fetch_array( $result ) ) {

                                $caId = $myrow[ &#39;

                    caId &#39; ];

                                $guildId = $myrow[ &#39;

                    guildId &#39; ];

                                $caName = $myrow[ &#39;

                    caName &#39; ];

  11. Live view not updating

    17.0.1 release. Live view seems to have stopped updating, at least regularly. Sometimes switching back and forth between design and live causes an update, sometimes it doesn't. Often the "refresh live view" menu item is grayed out, and even when it's not, clicking it often seems to make no difference. The attached screen shot clearly shows that the date of the "Book Discussion" shows as 18 March in "live" view but as 15 April in "code" view, and the "refresh" menu item is grayed out.

  13. Moving tabs doesnt work if tab goes outside of tab line

    Hi,

    The new update has made it almost impossible to move tabs around by dragging them.

    If you drag them and stay within the ~20px of the tab bar, you can reorder them.

    If however your mouse goes below or above the tab bar, the tab detaches and when you put it back into the tab bar, it goes on the end.

    If you look at the image, if I place the tab where the red arrow points, it should sit at that position in the tab bar. But because i dragged my mouse down a little, it will go…

  15. SFTP Not Working

    Dreamweaver does not work with SFTP. I can connect but am only able to access the directory that stores my profile, meanwhile I am able to connect and view all files using Filezilla. For the cost of the program and the fact that more and more sites / hosts are going the secure route, this feature should be a priority.

  16. Apply source formatting breaks <a> tags when next to each other.

    When there ara a couple <a> html tags next to each other like

    <a name="defaultadvancedaliasescharts" id="defaultadvancedaliasescharts"></a>
    <a name="aaCharts" id="aaCharts"></a>

    and I apply source formatting, it becomes the following which breaks both of them. In first <a> tag it changes the opening <a to < a and closing </a> to < /a>. In second <a> tag it changes opening <a by adding a line break and tab before the a and like the first <a> tag changes the closing </a> to < /a>.

    < a name = "defaultadvancedaliasescharts"
    id = "defaultadvancedaliasescharts" > < /a> <

    a name = &quot;aaCharts&quot;

  17. Code keeps disappearing

    Since the latest upgrade (2017.1), the code view keeps disappearing. I can't find which action makes it happen.

    Sometimes closing or opening windows helps, or closing program. I usually work in split view design/code. Switching views or to all code does not fix it.

    In any case it renders the program completely unusable.

  18. Copy and paste not bringing across structure/formatting

    Hi,

    When copying and pasting text from another program (e.g. Microsoft Word) into Dreamweaver CC 18.1, the structure is not coming across into HTML tags and pasting everything in <p> tags.

    Even if the Word document is correctly using styles for heading levels, bulleted lists and even tables, none of the structure is coming across. It is reverted into just single lines of text within <p> tags.

    I attempted to even copy and paste from a web page which contained appropriate structure for heading level etc. but Dreamweaver is still not bringing across the relevant HTML tags.

    This is a…
