Adobe Business Catalyst Notes and Tips

In context editing not working for a section?  Could be a few things; this last one is that it does not like "float" on a "p" tag.

Can't get rid of an editable section? This page Identifying the default editable regions in InContext Editing describes the process of BC walking through the site on import looking for editable regions.  Not good:  it took silly examples, like the site's logo (which was clearly defined as "logo".)  Only way I could see to remove the incontext editing sections was to redefine their container from a div to a p or remove the div container althogether.
Update: Doesn't always work..... Inexplicably spans and p tags still insist on being editable although the page above says these tags are never directly editable.

Can't "Put" a template in Dreamweaver? Must activate the Business Catalyst module.  This would be an obvious point, except that the site's CSS files can be updated without having this live.  Can also seem to get all files. But the DreamWeaver Put for a site Template doesn't work without Window -> Business Catalyst.

Downloading the file set via FTP brings down the Templates folder files as .html while on the remote server the Templates folder holds dwt files.  Why? Dunno.  But don't take files down w/FileZilla--use DW Get for the whole shabang.
