Brenda K.Feb 15, 2026Quick win, clock this one in under 30 seconds and move on. D is your answer. That is the entire point of Dreamweaver templates: you lock down editable and non-editable regions so that when you update the original .dwt file, Dreamweaver prompts you to push those changes out to every child page that was generated from it. This is a one-to-many relationship, not a one-way copy. A, B, and C are pure distractors, Z-index and layer numbers have nothing to do with template propagation, and B contradicts the core feature that makes templates worth using in the first place. Bank the time you save here and spend it on a trickier question later.
Nina C.Feb 16, 2026Agreed, and what finally clicked for me was realizing that if templates only pushed changes one way with no propagation to child pages, you would just use Save As and call it a day.
Nina C.Feb 21, 2026Does "reflect the change" mean all child pages update automatically, or just some?
Mei-Ling H.Feb 7, 2026The wording "reflect the change" is slightly loose because Dreamweaver actually prompts you to update the child pages and you can choose not to, so a strict reader might hesitate, but in practice the intended behavior is that child pages pick up edits from the template, making D correct. A and C are pure distractors because Z-index and layer numbers have nothing to do with template propagation, and B is the opposite of how Dreamweaver templates work.
