Help Editing Page Properties? - 7/24/2007 18:26:25   
Hi, this may seem like a silly question, but I'd appreciate any help nonetheless.

When using DWTs, I am unable to edit the properties (title, keywords, etc) of web pages that are attached to them. When I unattach them from the DWT I can edit the properties, but it's obviously not efficient to unattach and reattach them. Is there a way around this? Any help would be appreciated.

Okay, I fixed the problem. Just figured I'd post it here since someone else said they were having the same issue:

The problem is that (for me at least) I accidentally erased the "doctitle" region that it created when I first made the DWT. In order to correct it, put

<!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->
<title>Name of Page</title>
<!-- #EndEditable -->

below the first meta tag in the <head> tag in the DWT. Make sure to take out the other <title>Name of Page</title> in the tag to ensure it works properly.

Hope this helps!

I did as you suggested, except I did this:

<!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->
<title></title>
<!-- #EndEditable -->

(So the title box is blank, until I type it in and save it)

Then I have a few meta tags - robot, content language, content type,copyright, author...

Then I did this:

<!--#BeginEditable "description"-->
<meta name="description" content="Description " />
<!--#EndEditable-->
<!--#BeginEditable "keywords"-->
<meta name="keywords" content="keywords" />
<!--#EndEditable-->

This works for me.
