hide Files From the web serVer
As you saw when you created the folders for the new site, not all of the new files are
meant to be uploaded to the Web server — specifically, the Photoshop file in the resourc-
es folder. (You should, however, store such files locally as source files or documentation
for the work you completed.) Dreamweaver provides a very useful function — called
cloaking — that allows you to prevent certain files from uploading. You can cloak an
individual file; cloak all files with the same extension (for example, all native Photoshop
files with the PSD extension); or cloak a folder, which also cloaks all files in that folder.
1. With the Kinetic site open in the Files panel, open the Directory menu and
click the Kinetic site name in the menu.
This opens the Site Setup dialog box for the selected site. You do not need to go through
the Manage Sites dialog box to edit the settings for the active site.

Click the site name in the
Directory menu to open
the Site Setup dialog box
for the selected site.

2. In the Site Setup dialog box, expand the Advanced Settings menu on the left
side and click Cloaking to show the related options.

3. Make sure the Enable Cloaking check box is active.
When Enable Cloaking is checked, you can hide selected files and folders from a Web
server. You can also use the Cloak Files Ending With option to hide all files with the
extensions that are listed in the field.

4. Click Save to close the Site Setup dialog box.

5. In the Files panel, collapse all open folders and expand only the resources folder.
