    Default Dreamweaver template questions

    The following is from the Dreamweaver 8 help:

    "Contribute retrieves new and changed templates from the site only when
    Contribute starts up and when a Contribute user changes their connection
    information. If you make changes to a template while a Contribute user is
    editing a file based on that template, the user won't see the changes to the
    template until they restart Contribute."

    Does this mean if I makes changes to a template with Dreamweaver, should
    Contribute detect the change to the template and auto-update all pages that
    use that template?

    Secondly, is it possible to change the template used on an existing page
    with Contribute? Eg - I have 4 pages using "Template A". Is there any way to
    change 2 of those pages to use "Template B" instead.

    Thanks in advance.

    Default Re: Dreamweaver template questions

    As for as I know both of those are tasks for Dreamweaver not Contribute. DW
    will check its cache for files using a particular template and update them, and
    you can also open a page in DW and apply a different template to it.
