If you previously exported your Site Definitions (.ste files), import them into new version

Hi Ken, thank you for your response. I'm sorry but i'm not that technical to know what " previously exported your Site Definitions (.ste files)" means. I didn't do anything to the sites before i upgraded, mainly because i only bought the new version of DW because i upgraded to mountain lion and then my old version of DW wouldn't work on Mountain Lion ? Is there anything else i can do please ?

Matthew

Sorry, not a MAC guy.

When you have defined your sites in any version, DW offers the option to Export the site definitions

as files named sitename.ste

These are saved in a safe place and when necessary, can be imported into a new or reinstalled version.

If you have not done this, you will have to define your sites all over.

Sounds like i will need to Define my sites all over again, by Define does that mean basically creating a new site and dragging my content into that ?

Thanks Ken.

Nah, defining the site for DW (if you have one built in another program) is just setting up the FTP info and telling DW where your files are...

Site > Manage > New

Give it a name and URL (if you have one)

When it asks "Where on your computer do you want to store your files" put the folder that has your site info (index.html and folders)

Then you fill out your FTP info and what-not.

You're welcome Matt -

DW needs you to tell it where all the Site files are located, where the image folder is as well as the FTP credentials (if your are not using a 3rd party FTP application). Without all this info, DW can't manage your links as you work.
