Hey, you lookin’ ta save some time—save some time in Dreamweaver? Cool, you’re in the right spot! So check this out: Here’s a list of 10 super-slick tricks to save time while managing your websites in the titan of web design, Dreamweaver. Now this list assumes that you’ve got a good foothold in Dreamweaver, and that you’ve gone through the site definition process as well (that’s Site > New Site), cuz many of these features simply won’t work without a defined site. Kay, enough blabbin’! Grab a snack, lean in close, and let’s take a look! Time-Saver #1: The Ass Haulin' Starts With Assets! Time-Saver #2: Mach-10 File Transfer With Dreamweaver's Files Panel!Forget about using third-party FTP clients—didja know Dreamweaver’s Files panel has everything you need built right in? Just click the Expand To Show Local And Remote Sites button in the panel’s top-right corner, and the panel maximizes to show your remote site on the left, and your local site on the right. Then what? Drag ‘n drop, baby! Or even better—and this is my favorite part—select a file in one view; then at the top of the panel, click either Put (in the case where you’re uploading a file to the remote site) or Get (to pull a file down to your local site). The reason why this is my favorite part is cuz if the file resides within a sub-folder or two, Dreamweaver will actually build the folder structure for you on the other side, so all your links and paths remain intact. How cool is that?! Time-Saver #3: Light-Speed Link Management With Change Links Sitewide
Time-Saver #4: Rapid-Fire Find And Replace!
