wb version file associations question
been having problems with my computer so Im not sure if this is something with the wb program or my machine
I have versions wb16 and wb 19 on my machine
when I click on the project file for a wb19 project it used to open up wb19 and start the project, now it is telling me the project was created in a previouse verion, also all project files show as wb16 file not the wb19
if I open wb19 and open the project through the program it will open that way
thanks for any help on this

Re: wb version file associations question
I believe this is related to file association on your PC and not with the software. A similar question was asked see Pablos reply at the following. It mentions WB8 and Windows 10 but if using Windows 11 and WB19 it will still apply.

Under Windows 10:
In the search field enter 'File Type', select the first item
Now you can update 'wbs' file type and association it with the latest version.
And of course you can also use the file menu to open projects.
Re: wb version file associations question
File associations are a system feature that lets you choose which applications open specific file types. You can configure these settings through Windows Settings.
Re: wb version file associations question
I got the newer sites to open correctly but now the older wb16 site can not be opened with wb16
windows thinks this site was built with the newer version now
is there a way in windows 11 to have both wersions of wb work?
not sure if I edit the older site with the newer software if there will be issues

Re: wb version file associations question
You can open WB16 files via the file menu of WB16.
Re: wb version file associations question
ok Thanks again Pablo
Re: wb version file associations question
are there any known issues I will run into if I just publish this old site with the new software, my main concern is there are hidden pages and a login element on this site
Re: wb version file associations question
There are no known issues. But it is always good to preview first to see if everything works as expected.
Re: wb version file associations question
ok I will try that, if this works then the php version update will no longer be a concern
thanks
thanks
Re: wb version file associations question
having an issue with file listing elements, backround not showing in preview and text look like code
this is a site made with wb16 , trying to publish with wb19
are file listing elements compatable with the newer version?

Re: wb version file associations question
Which 'file listing element' are you referring to?
What are your settings?
What do you see, how do you test? Can you please be more specific?

Re: wb version file associations question
As Pablos question what file listing are you referring to?. As the text looks like code then I would say you are or may be using the PHP File Listing - Version 1.2 If so as its name it is using PHP so cannot be "Previewed" locally and requires it to be published to your host/server and the page extension should be set to .php.file listing elements, backround not showing in preview and text look like code
Re: wb version file associations question
yes i found that out, sorry , it has been a while since I did anything with this site
only had to make a few adjustments to get pages to show up ok as far as republish wb16 built site to update to wb19
