Site Definition for your personal site

When you first begin creating a web site in Dreamweaver, you'll need to configure the settings for that site. After this first setup, Dreamweaver will automatically open with this site ready to be used.

  1. Go to the Sites menu and select Manage Sites...
  2. Click the New button and select New Site from the menu that appears.
  3. Click on the Advanced tab at the top of the window.
  4. Enter a short, easy to remember name for the site (this is never made public)
  5. Click on the folder icon to the right of the box labeled "Local Root Folder"
  6. Select the folder (on your computer) where the template files are located. If you are not using a template, select the folder where you will be storing your web files.
  7. Click the "Remote Info" category on the left side of the window.
  8. Under Access:, select FTP
  9. Enter the following information
    • FTP Host: flightline.highline.edu
    • Host Directory: <leave blank>
    • Login: Type "ic\Your Username". For example: ic\juser.
    • Password: Your IC Password (This is the same password you use to access labs, voting, and entry codes. See IC Help for details.)
  10. Click the "Test" button. If the test fails, write down the error message and contact IC Help (ichelp@highline.edu).
  11. Click OK

If you are defining a site other than your personal site, such as a department site on which you author, follow the example shown in the figure below. The illustration example is of a site on the Flightline server.
