:confused:I am building a site by using a master template. I have created three pages so far based on the template. When I make changes to my template, Dreamweaver is not updating my pages either automatically or when I try to do it manually either by Modify-template-update pages or update current page. Log will say 3 pages examined 0 updated. It also says 0 files which could not be updated.

I don't want to start any more pages until I can be confident this is working. Any troubleshooting advice?

Thanks

Suzanne

Hi! this seems to be almost a women-show here ;)

I haven't any big experience with DW-templates, but I tried it out now. My test-page has updated when I changend and saved the template.
But if you have the page (.htm) open when making changes on the template page you have to save the .htm-file! The small star sign next to the title means there are some changes not yet saved!

Another idea: in the dialog-box for "new document" under Page from Template check the box for "Update page when template changes"!

Hope you'll get more help from others!

Greetings

Susanne
