remote test server not connecting when in Dreamweaver

I set up the CMS and all works fine except that I am having a problem when editing a page in Dreamweaver. I get the message Content not Found. I do not have a local server so I set up the test server to the site. I tried using the both the IP address and domain name for the FTP address and Web URL. I did go to the Cpanel to add my IP to the remote DB access. I am still getting the Content not found message where there is a CMS content php code. Any suggestions? (screen shots of my server settings are attached.)

This is an issue with your site definition for your testing server. Usually it is a problem with the URL being wrong or the default directory.

I don't know the directory structure of your testing server, but I'd guess that is where it is going wrong. If you want to export your site definition including usernames and passwords and send it to me I can import it and test to see the problem.

You have to add the root folder to your testing server in your site definition: public_html
