Site Management and Collaboration 109
Site Files view
displays the file structure of the remote and local sites in the panes
of the Site window. (Which site is displayed in which pane, right or left, is
determined by preference settings; see “Setting Site preferences” on page 110.) Site
Files view is the default view for the Site window.
Site Map view
displays a graphical map of your site based on how the documents
are linked to one another. Hold this button down to choose Map Only or Map
and Files from the pop-up menu.
The site pop-up menu
lists sites you’ve defined. To switch sites, choose a different site
from the list. To add a site or edit the information for an existing site, choose Define
Sites from the bottom of the menu (see “Setting up a remote site” on page 123).
Connect/Disconnect (available with FTP and WebDAV protocol and SourceSafe)
connects to or disconnects from the remote site. By default, Dreamweaver
disconnects from the remote site if it has been idle for more than 30 minutes
(FTP only). To change the time limit, choose Edit > Preferences and select Site.
Refresh
refreshes the local and remote directory lists. Use this button to manually
refresh the directory lists if you deselected either Refresh Local File List Automatically
or Refresh Remote File List Automatically in the Site Definition dialog box (see
“Associating a remote server with a local site” on page 124). For example, if you
mount a drive that contains a remote site after you open the Site window, you won’t
see that remote site’s directory list until you click the Refresh button.
Get File(s)
copies the selected files from the remote site to your local site
(overwriting the existing local copy of the file, if any). If Enable File Check In and
Check Out is turned on, the local copies are read-only; the files remain available
on the remote site for other team members to check out. If Enable File Check In
and Check Out is turned off, getting a file transfers a copy that has both read and
write privileges. Note that the files copied are the ones selected in whichever pane
of the Site window is currently active. If the Remote pane is active, the selected
remote files are copied to the local site; if the Local pane is active, the remote
versions of the selected local files are copied to the local site. See “Getting files
from a remote server” on page 143.
Put File(s)
copies the selected files from the local site to the remote site. Note that the
files copied are the ones selected in whichever pane of the Site window is currently
active. If the Local pane is active, the selected local files are copied to the remote site;
if the Remote pane is active, the local versions of the selected remote files are copied
to the remote site. See “Putting files onto a remote server” on page 144.
Note: If you are adding a file that doesn’t already exist on the remote site and Enable File
Check In and Out is on, the file will be added to the remote site as “checked out.” Choose
the Check In Files option instead to add a file without the checked out status.
