Dreamweaver - template not recognising child files until they are opened - dreamweaver

I've got a new section for a website which I have generated for a data source and it has markup for using a Dreamweaver template.
When I add the new files and folders to the site , then update my template , it doesn't find the new files to update.
If I open one of the new files , make a change in the template , then it recognises the new file is using the template. So it's almost like I have to touch all the files with Dreamweaver first.
I've tried to open all the new files which need to use the template but then Dreamweaver CS4 crashes, I presume because of the number of files it's opening.
Anyway, does anyone know if there is a way to make Dreamweaver recognise that a block of new files belong to the template , it doesn't seem to just work automatically
Thanks
Chris

You can force Dreamweaver to recreate it's site cache, which should cause it to recognize the newly added files. You can do this by going to:
Site -> Advanced -> Recreate Site Cache
Or on the Files panel, click the Options menu on the upper right of the panel, select Site -> Recreate Site Cache.
If Recreate Site Cache is disabled in the Site menu or on the Files panel options menu, then the site cache has been disabled in the site definition. Go to: Site -> Manage Sites..., select your site, and click Edit. IN Dreamweaver CS4 on the Local Info category, there is a Enable Cache checkbox, check it and click OK. IN Dreamweaver CS5, you'll need to expand the Advanced Settings, and then select Local Info, and check the Enable Cache checkbox.

How do I change the login screen images with a customization project?

When I login in Acumatica, my users see the default Acumatica images and I would like my own branding instead.
How do I replace the login screen's images with my own ?
How can I do that so for hosted ans SaaS environments ?
To customize the login screen for your own hosted or SaaS environment, you will have to develop a customization project on your local environment. The following guide will tell you how to replace one of the login image and the logo shown on the login screen.
The first step is to modify your local environment files.list file.
It is located at the root of your site (e.g. YourAcumaticaSite\files.list).
For my example, I need to remove Icons\login_bg1.jpg and Icons\login_logo.png from files.list. Save the file.
Now go to your local site Icons folder (e.g. YourAcumaticaSite\Icons ) and replace the same two files (login_bg1.jpg and login_logo.png) with your own images.
It is important to keep the exact same file name.
For the next step, go on your local site customization project screen (SM204505) and edit/create the customization project that will contain these new images.
Go in the Files section, click on the Add button (+) and select the two new images.
Save the project, export it and publish it on your staging/production environment.
You can now admire your new login screen.
If the images shown are still the old ones, your browser might have cached the images. To clear your favorite browser cache, follow instructions found here : https://www.refreshyourcache.com/en/home/
Once you are done, you can go back to your local website to edit the files.list file and put back the lines we previously removed.

How to move Wiki pages between sites in SharePoint 2013?

we have created a new site and we want to move our team's wiki to the new site.
is there a nice and easy way to do it? we've tried the tree view with drag and drop but it won't work.
Thank you.
Ok so after a number of dead ends, I found a quick and easy solution:
Navigate to the physical folder location for your Sharepoint docs.
[Do this by selecting documents in the menu list, select the library tab and then open with explorer]
Once there navigate to the folder containing your wiki site/s.
They will have a .aspx extension usually
You can then move them to the folder you like.
Note: The site needs to be checked in or the move process will moan
One of the options could be to save a Wiki site as a site template. Then deploy it in a site collection and to create new sites from it. But unfortunately since Wiki site is Publishing based site, it is not supported to Save Site as Template.
But there is another option - moving sites via Site Content and Structure:
You can move individual list items or entire subsites to another
subsite within the site collection. A subsite can be moved to be
directly under the top level in the site collection hierarchy or under
another subsite in the site collection hierarchy. When you move a
subsite, all of the content in the subsite is moved
Steps:
Go to Site Settings, then Content and structure (under Site
Administration)
Select site you would like to move and Move action in the context menu
as shown below on picture
In the Move dialog select a destination (parent site) and
then click OK as shown below on picture
That's it.
you can try opening both sites/libraries in explorer view, side by side, and copy paste them from one to the other
you can also try to save a template out of the wiki including content and then import it

Issues with converting HTML file to master page in SharePoint 2013

Right now I have an HTML file and I'm trying to convert it to a master page. I'm using a VM on CloudShare.
So I create a new site collection and go into the site settings. Under “Look and Feel”, Design Manager isn’t there so I’ve found that if I go to “Site Collection Features” under “Site Collection Administration”, and activate “SharePoint Server Publishing Infrastructure” Design Manager will show up. So I go into design manager, but under Edit Master Pages none of the file or folder names will show up, and when I convert the html file the status column doesn’t show up either, so I can’t go to preview it or to the snippets gallery.
The only thing I can find online is to create a new site collection, which I’ve tried a few times. This happened on my old CloudShare VM, and creating a new site collection fixed it, but it’s not working for this. Can anyone help?
Personally when working with new master pages I have found that the best application to use is SharePoint Designer. You should be able to download it for free. Here are the instructions to configure SharePoint designer using it with CloudShare.

Figured it out - I made a new site collection and set it to a Publishing site template and it fixed the issue.

Tabbed Coded Windows With Dreamweaver Layout?

Can anyone tell me if there is a way to manage more than one website in Dreamweaver at the same time? As I understand it now, every time I need to get a page from a website, I have to change the current site by selecting another site in the Files dropdown... Is there a way to have something like "tabs" where you can instantly switch between different websites without having to click the Files drop-down, select the website, wait for FTP to connect, and then browse that website?
I am using Adobe Dreamweaver CS6 and when I open multiple webpages, they are on tabs already. On the fist screen shot i provided, you can see that index.html and album.html are both opened. If you click on the restore button on the active window (icon encircled), it is manageable like the other image I attached.

How to Roll back Sharepoint content editor

I have content editor on my team site where I added several links. But today while adding some new links, content editor crashed. so now when I tried to open site containing content editor, browser stop working.
The quick solution is:
I can delete the existing content editor and create a new one (using ?contents=1 in the corrupted team site). But since my content editor contains lot of links, so is there a way where I can roll back content editor to previous version (till yesterday afternoon)?
Any suggestion is appreciated.
Your previous version is probably lost in the mess. You will have to go to the site admin, and close / delete the webpart and start over. You may be able to simply close the web part (from site admin) and then edit the web part properties to salvage it's contents.
Either way, content should not be added directly into a Content Editor Web Part (for this reason.) Instead, use the option to point to a file in a Document Library elsewhere in your SharePoint site, with versioning enabled.
Then, in the case of the CEWP blowing up the page from an edit to the contents, you can revert to the previous version of the document, and the CEWP will immediately be updated, and the page immediately restored.
Stackoverflow is about programming related questions, your question is more of a user question.
You can't roll back a content editor. If you have versioning enabled for the page you have the content editor on, you might be lucky and can retrieve an earlier version. Otherwise you could only check the database for the content editor contents, but that will be a pretty tedious task finding it.
