Store owners that use the ProStores Dreamweaver extension to edit their ProStores Templates may receive the following error message when attempting to create a new line in Design view by pressing the Enter key.

The elements are locked by a template or an editor.

The above error message has been identified as a known issue in Dreamweaver.  Specifically, the error occurs (while editing in Dreamweaver) by placing the cursor on a Template in Design view, attempting to create a new line by pressing the Enter key, and the area you are attempting to create a new line in is between an opening <ss:font> tag and a closing </ss:font> that is not wrapped within <p> tags or <span> tags.

Solution

Currently, this is the only known issue.  It is documented in the ProStores Dreamweaver extension Help documentation.

To view the ProStores Dreamweaver extension Help documentation in Dreamweaver:

1.      Click ProStores => Help in the Dreamweaver menu toolbar. 

2.      Browse to the Known Issues section after the documentation browser opens.

The Help documentation displays the following information.

When you place your cursor inside an <ss:font> tag which is not embedded inside of a <p> or <span> tag and attempt to create a new line by pressing Enter, a Dreamweaver alert appears informing you that you are trying to edit a locked region of a template and that the change will be discarded. To work around this issue, wrap your <ss:font> tag with a <span> tag.

In summary, the workaround for this issue is to set Dreamweaver to Split view.  This way both the Source and Design views of the Template are visible at the same time.  Go to the area, in Design view, where you are trying to add the new line.  Examine the Source view by searching for <ss:font> tags that are not enclosed in <p> or <span> tags. 

Simply place an opening <span> tag to the left of the opening <ss:font> tag and a closing </span> tag to the right of the closing </ss:font> tag.  For example, a section of the Home Page Template is displayed below with the added <span> tags in red.

<table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0">

<tr valign="top">

      <td width="90%">

            <span><ss:font source="$font.heading"><b>Welcome <ss:value source="$customer.firstName"/> to <ss:value source="$store.name"/></b></ss:font></span>

            <p><ss:font source="$font.paragraph"><ss:value source="$storeVersion.customText['welcome']"/></ss:font></p>

The Sitemap Generation tool will automatically generate a search engine spider friendly file in your store’s root directory. The specifically designed file makes it easy for the search engine spiders to find and index the content in your website. ProStores will automatically update the sitemap every 2 weeks.

This tool does not create a sitemap for your storefront visitors. One can add a storefront sitemap for visitors by adding a custom User Defined Template or HTML page to your store.

To enable the Sitemap Generation tool:

1.  Browse to Product => Market Demand => SEO. The Sitemap Generation option appears.

2.  Check the box next to Generate a sitemap for the store.

3.  Click Apply.

If you have Google and/or Yahoo sitemap services, make certain to configure those accounts with the ProStores sitemap tool. Review the tutorials if you need assistance:
