Updating the UNL Template Files
Updating your UNL Template based site is easy if you are using the CSS-based UNL Templates and Dreamweaver.
The latest UNL Template source is 20070105.
If you do not have the latest source, you might consider upgrading. You can check what version you are using by looking at the source of the template based page.
[edit] Instructions
- First, make a backup of your site just in case.
- Connect to the WDN FTP site (ftp://wdn:1869@ucommdev.unl.edu/) and download 'UNLTemplates.zip.'
- Extract the zip file to a temporary directory.
- Open the Templates directory from the extracted files and copy all of the .dwt's to your local root, overwriting the old .dwt's.
- Update your pages by choosing Modify>Templates>Update Pages from within Dreamweaver.
- If you run into any problems, restore the files you backed up and post to the Bulletin Board.
Do not copy all the files and overwrite your sharedcode files (navigation, footer etc)
We recommend that you register for the WebDevNet Bulletin Board to stay informed of updates to the template pages.
