changing HTML/CSS layout and graphics

Hi all,

I have a cakephp script for an online store and I would like to change the default layout and design of the website. Is it possible to change the website design using wysiwig editor and what is the process for doing this? Also, do I have to upload the script on the server before editing it or I have to edit it and then ftp on the server? I would really appreciate any hints. Regards

I'd personally ensure that I have a development server (or a local copy) of the site you are working on. This allows you to create, edit and mess around with views without messing with FTP and the live production site.

You can use something like Adobe Dreamweaver or similar if that is your preference, to edit CakePHP views. There are some setup steps required to get your CSS included.. Not sure how to do that personally.

Thanks a lot for your answer. I would appreciate it if anyone can tell me the setup procedure for CSS and views edit on Dreamweaver to change the website design.

You have to start with the file /app/views/layouts/default.ctp, the main template file and /webroot/css/cake.generic.css the main CSS file.

I would recommend hiring a web designer to do this.
