Untill recently we didnt rate Siteassist Professional to much but we had only used this Dreamweaver extension once, after the review, WE LOVE IT. But why you ask?
Well since you asked we will tell you, lol.
Create a Dreamweaver template and set some editable regions(top navigation, content and footer) to use within Siteassist Professional.
Create a preset for CSS menu writer, and run through the siteAssist professional wizard, entering in all the pages you want and when you click finish all you pages are created, your CSS menu writer and footer links are all done for you.
Your site is all finished ready for your content, with just three WebAssist extensions(CSS Sculptor 2, CSS Menu writer and siteAssist professionsal) for Dreamweaver you can have a site set up and fully functional within a couple hours of solid work.
Just put in your content and away you go, now just think if your setting up a site for a client and they have provided you with the content, imagine how surprised your family will be when you start spending more time at home with them.
Just hold of on giving your client a finished site after a couple of hours lol, they might ask for a discount lol!
Ok so in order to use SiteAssist you need to have a layout created in CSS Sculptor or a Dreamweaver template with menu, content and footer(optional) editable regions. Then you need to open the the layout manager pictured below:

Then select new, which will open the new layout wizard which we show below:
| New Layout step 1 | New Layout step 2 |
 |

| The first step deals with the home page: Give your layout a name and choose your CSS Sculptor or Dreamweaver template. | The second step you set the menu writer preset and which editable region will be used for your menu, content and footer for your home page. |
| New Layout step 3 | New Layout step 4 |
 |
 |
| The third step deals with the content pages: Choose your CSS Sculptor or Dreamweaver template. | The fourth step you set the menu writer preset and which editable region will be used for your menu, content and footer for your content pages. |
Now that your layout is set up it's time to build your site with Siteassist Professional, we have show you how to do this in the steps below and in the video at the bottom of this page.
| Step 1 | Step 2 |
 |
 |
| Select the preset structure which is closest to the website structure that you want. | Select the layout that you set up earlier. |
| Step 3 | Step 4 |
 |
 |
| Create the pages that you want and the structure that you want for your site. | Create the pages that you want to be linked to in your footer. |
| Step 5 | |
 |
|
| Choose the placeholder content and the Doctype that you want for your site. |
When you hit finish Siteassist Professional starts to work its web Voodoo and creates all the pages for your site including the menu if you selected a preset earlier. Pretty cool huh!

So why have we rated it 4stars?
Has a tendancy to crash and sometimes its not just the extension but Dreamweaver aswell. But that is the only thing that lets this extension down.
