I really like this extension but there is some flaw unless i'm doing something wrong...If i create a new page and insert bootstrap 3 it works great but what i don't like is that if a page already has bootstrap on it such as a page that was already created the extension doesn't work.....it would be nice if a client tells me to make some changes and if they already have a site with bootstrap already on it i could use this extension....i really don't see why it should not work if all the bootstrap commands are the same providing they are using the same bootstrap version which is 3 or give an option to apply the commands to page no matter which version they use....

Hello,
Can you please be a little more detailed? What do you mean by: "the extension doesn't work" ?

yes extension works it just doesn't work with any file that already had bootstrap applied to it....another way of looking at it is that the extension doesn't work work unless it uses the bootstrap files that you put on the actual extension...

I don't understand the logic of this because all the bootstrap commands on this extension are common bootstrap commands.

Please download and install the latest Bootstrap 3 version from our website (3.1.0) Open your page created without the extension, click Commands > DMXzone Bootstrap 3 Options, select Local Normal/Minified, browse to the bootstap css and or js files that your website is using, uncheck the "Automatic File Update" option and click OK.
Then you will be able to use the extension on such pages.

Yes this worked the only issue is that if you work on allot of sites like we do every time you switch from one site to another in Dreamweaver you have to reset those settings again if the other site has another type of bootstrap file and style sheets....it makes it difficult to use it from site to site...

An example is that on a average we are working on anywhere from 5 to 10 web sites a day and switching those setting from site to site is not user friendly at all..

Unfortunately this is the only way to work on pages that are not built with the extension.

Well why couldn't the extension have a way to save settings and reload them per site because the hardest part would be to browse to find files every time from site to site..

This way if we switch site we could simple load settings and also in a group development environment like ours settings could be shared amount developers providing they have your extension loaded..

I think developers would want this...
