The Manage Sites dialog box is your gateway into various Dreamweaver site functions. From this dialog box, you can
initiate the process for creating a new site, editing an existing site, duplicating a site, removing a site, or importing or
exporting a site’s settings.
Note: The Manage Sites dialog box does not let you connect to or publish files to a remote server. For instructions on
connecting to a remote server, see
Connect to a remote server . If you are trying to connect to an existing website, see Edit
an existing remote website .

A site list appears. If you haven't created any sites yet, the site list will be blank.

delete the actual site files. (If you want to remove the site files from your computer, you need to do that manually.)
To delete a site from Dreamweaver, select the site in the site list and then click the Delete button. You cannot undo
this action.
Edit Enables you to edit information such as username, password, and server information for an existing
Dreamweaver site. Select the existing site in the site list and click the Edit button to edit the existing site. (The Site
Setup dialog box opens once you click the Edit button for a selected site.) For more information on editing existing

Duplicate button. The duplicated site appears in the site list with the word “copy” appended to the name of the site.
To change the name of the duplicated site, leave the site selected and click the Edit button.
