Edit a Non-editable Region in a DWT

FrontPage 2003

If you want to edit the logo image, copyright statement, or some other non-editable region of the underlying Dynamic Web Template, you will have to actually open the .dwt file. Please note that changing the underlying .dwt will change ALL OTHER pages that are based on that .dwt file, so you should only make changes like adding your logo image or changing the copyright statement.

  1. In the upper right corner of the page, FrontPage displays which DWT is being used and where it is located.


     
  2. Browse to this file and open it in FrontPage. You'll notice that the layout is there, but the Editable Regions only show comments.


     
  3. Make changes to the logo/name area, copyright statement, and any other areas that you want to modify with your own information.
     
  4. Save your file. A dialog box may appear asking if you want to update the attached pages. Click Yes.


     
  5. After updating attached pages, another dialog box will show that the pages have been updated. Click the Close button.


     
  6. If you have pages open that have this DWT attached, you may also need to save them for the changes to apply. You may edit the other DWTs as necessary.
