Custom design.

[Simon Williams]

Hi all,

I've created a custom design using Dreamweaver and applied this to Actinic.

Some of the pages in the site do not appear the same as the 'Home' page, and I was wondering if there was any way (I'm sure there is) of applying this layout automatically to the rest of the site.

Thanks in advance,
Simon

Simon,

This is what I do in Dreamwaever. I create a home page so this becomes my master template. I then save the template page as my other pages, i.e abc1_html, abc2_html and so on.

Then I register the pages with actinic.

Hope this helps?

When you register the design initially you have the option of which parts of the site it is applied to .. sounds like you did not select the "site wide" option

Thanks for that info guys...

I did register my design for all pages of the site, but this seems to have not worked for some reason. Also, while updating the design in DW, I was able to see the changes applied after doing a quick DW save. This option now does not work.

I will re-register the design on a new site to see if this gets round the problem, but it means that the amendments I have made in Actinic will disapear.

otherwise just apply your design to the other layouts ie brochure, checkout, login pages

see the options in site options
