Contribute use

[ROGM]

I am a beginner at a school and we have Studio 8. I have tried to set
Dreamweaver up for contribute but when I go to tet the connection in th sites
panel it says there are no files at the folder. I know the address works
because I can test them with dreamweaver F12 key. I have this in the field
"http://localhost/wmsV3/" the result is "could not find a page at the specified
URL". I tried with shtml and html. I can oly assume I have the address wrong
BUT D8 put it there!

The other question I have is can Contribute be used on its own without D8
knowledge?

Is the method below the only way of getting a response with this site?

Hi ROGM,

When you click F12 in dreamweaver you get a view of the file system, so for
example I get file:///D:/DW%20Websites/MyWebbie/index.html.

If you want this to be directly linked to a URL like [url]http://localhost/wmsV3/[/url]
then you would need to configure a web server to point localhost/wmsV3 to the
directory on your file system.

Contribute doesn't require dreamweaver however you do have to code the html up
in some kind of text editor and define the editable areas on the page using the
tags that contribute knows. ie create a contribute template :
[url]http://www.adobe.com/devnet/contribute/articles/contingency_plan_05.html[/url]

btw what is the method below?
