Getting the DWT into Your Web

FrontPage DWT Help > Getting the DWT into your Web

If you've downloaded templates from us in the past (non-dynamic, of course), when you license one of our DWT Packages for the first time you'll notice things are a bit different!  Not to worry, we've gone through a lot of testing to ensure an easy process for you!

Start with the Download

  1. Download the .exe file to your hard drive (note where you download it, as you will need to locate it to execute it).
     
  2. Execute the file.  The default installation location for TWC Graphics Design DWT packages is c:\Program Files\TWC Graphics Design\ - then the name of the particular design.  If you elect to unzip the file to a different drive or directory, you will need to remember where it is and substitute that directory for all other instructions we provide.

Get the Needed Files into Your Web

We're assuming you have either an existing web, or you've already started a new web.  If not, then you'll want to first start your new web in FrontPage 2003, probably using the "One Page Web Site" template option.  Now, there are two different ways you can get the files into the web:

Manually

To place the files in the appropriate location to attach the DWTs, open the web you wish to attach in FrontPage 2003.  Open the Folder List (View, Folder List) if it is not already open and ensure that the top level directory is selected (left click over it to highlight it).  From the FrontPage menu, select File, Import - then click "Add Folder."  Navigate on your hard drive to c:\Program Files\TWC Graphics Design\ - then select the folder for the design.  Once imported to your web, you will be able to attach the DWT (proceed to Attaching DWTs in this tutorial).

Automatically

Use the DWT Manager/Browser from FrontLook.  The DWT Manager/Browser comes with a 30-day free trial period, and provide you the means to quickly and efficiently locate the DWT packages on your hard drive (complete with screenshot if provided by the designer!), select one to copy to the current web, and copy it in with the click of a button.  Afterward, you will be able to attach the DWT (proceed to Attaching DWTs in this tutorial).

With FrontPage 2003 open and the DWT Manager/Browser already installed, select Format, Dynamic Web Template, Browse/Copy Dynamic Web Template to Web.  You will get a pop-up box (click screenshot above for larger view), which will allow you to select which DWT Package you wish to import.  Note:  the individual DWT pages are listed separately in the listing; however, selecting one which also includes other layouts in the same DWT Package will copy the entire package automatically.
