Dreamweaver, several Adobe accounts and Business Catalyst

I asked this question before on another thread of DW forum but, for now, no response.

As this problem became a real problem for me, I would like to than DW and Adobe BC to lean engineering teams on this.


Here's the scenario.

My Adobe personal account has been updated since many years of individual applications in Creative Suite and is now used for my creative cloud subscription.

When I became a partner Adobe BC, I decided because it would be for commercial use only I should create a second Adobe account.

At no time during the partner registration process Adobe BC did I read all of the instructions from Adobe advises me not to.

With Adobe Muse, in the preferences panel, I can happily switches and publish sites to two my staff or business accounts Adobe. BC

However, this is not possible in DW.

The Business Catalyst Panel always connects to my personal account of Adobe BC - that is provided as part of my creative cloud subscription.

I need to be able to publish sites to my Adobe BC partner account.


In summary, I pay for Adobe Dreamweaver, as part of my creative cloud subscription, but can't really use it to develop websites for clients.

Can someone from Adobe please look at this and tell me how to solve.

Thank you.

Okay, so today I managed to solve the problem I described above, i.e. to develop websites using Adobe Dreamweaver and my personal ID Adobe CC, but publish websites on Adobe Business Catalyst that requires my Adobe ID company.

Here are some tips if you have encountered a similar problem.

Basically ignore sign Business Catalyst of Dreamweaver.

In Dreamweaver to open the panels to manage the Site, select the site you want to publish to Adobe Business Catalyst, then click the button change site select currently.

In the dialog box of configuration of the Site, in the list on the left, click servers, and then below the list of servers in the middle of the dialog box, click the button Add a new server.

In the base dialog box, name your server if you want, for example I've named mine Adobe BC.

Then, I changed my connect to help: to FTP SFTP.

Change the SFTP address to: yourwebsitename.businesscatalyst.com

Authentication: User name will be: yourwebsitename.businesscatalyst.com/ [email protected]

Password: YourAdobeBCLoginPassword

If any of the above information has been entered correctly, when you press the TEST button, Dreamweaver needs to connect to AdobeBC successfully.

Use the files Panel to connect to BC and was able, Get Adobe or synchronize files as required.

By the foregoing, I am now able to develop, update and manage corporate sites Adobe BC using Dreamweaver, happy days!
