Hi, I copied a default class to modify my way while preserving the original, but this newclass uses a default template.
How do I create a new template for my class? In which directory do I have to create and what name? What I have to modify configuration files?
Thanks, David

Hi David, you need to put your template in mydesign/override/templates/full/ folder. Best practice is that you tpl file name matches your class identifier. So if your new class identifier is my_class, the full path to the new tpl file should be mydesign/override/templates/full/my_class.tpl After that, you need to add the following in settings/my_siteaccess/override.ini.append.php and clear ini & override caches. (full details at: http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Configuration-files/override.ini)
[full_my_class]
Source=node/view/full.tpl
MatchFile=full/my_class.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=my_class

Thank you. I copied the template in "extension\ezwebin\design\ezwebin\override\templates\full\copy.tpl". The name of the template is the same as the class. I added the new lines in the file "settings\siteaccess\[my_syte]\override.ini.append.php", but still shows the default template.

Hi David, this setup should work without problems. You can check couple of things: 1) Did you clear your caches? Maybe purge var/cache and var/ezwebin_site/cache folders directly from the disk? 2) Does your siteaccess use ezwebin as the main or additional design? 3) Are the new settings in override.ini.append.php correct? Doublecheck them.

I put this in "override.ini.append.php ":
[full_copy_of_feedback_form]
Source=node/view/full.tpl
MatchFile=copy_of_feedback_form.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=copy_of_feedback_form The name of new class is "copy_of_feedback_form". How I can clear the cache directly from the disk? How do I know siteaccess use ezbin as main or additional design? Thanks, David

Hi David, you have an error in your override rule. Third line "MatchFile=copy_of_feedback_form.tpl" should be "MatchFile=full/copy_of_feedback_form.tpl" Change that, and clear the caches from administration. To answer your other questions (but I suppose they are not necessary since override.ini is cause of your problem) 1) You can clear the cache from disk by first positioning yourself in your ez publish install directory and then running the following (take care while running the commands, if not careful, rm can be destructive, do backup your site please!) rm -rf var/cache rm -rf var/ezwebin_site/cache 2) You can verify that your siteaccess is using ezwebin design by checking the following in site.ini [DesignSettings] AdditionalSiteDesignList - ezwebin should be listed in this array
or [DesignSettings] SiteDesign - ezwebin should be the value of this configuration

I do not believe me, but I've changed and still does not work. I have activated "Template debug". It's looking for the template in "node/view/full.tpl" and "extension/ezbin/design/ezbin/templates/node/view/full.tpl", but my template is in "extension/ezbin/design/ezbin/override/templates/full/copy_of_feedback_form.tpl". I don't understand :S My AdditionalSiteDesignList[] array is empty and... StandarDesign = standard and... SiteDesign = admin

hi David. could you please paste here the entire DesignSettings group in your settings/siteaccess/[mysite]/site.ini.append.php file? There's one thing i can't understand well. You say you have SiteDesign=admin but you seem to be working with a custom design (mysite), right? It's strange to have SiteDesign=admin in a custom design...

Ok. [my_site] as I called my site (the front-end), but should use the default layout, because I have not changed anything. My DesignSettings group in "settings/siteaccess/[my_site]/site.ini.append.php is:
[DesignSettings]
SiteDesign=ezflow
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=ezwebin
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=base
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=standard SiteDesign=admin was in "settings/site.ini"

Hi David, by mentioning site.ini, I was referring to settings/siteaccess/[my_site]/site.ini.append.php, maybe I should've been more clear, sorry about that :)
Now, I see nothing wrong in your [DesignSettings] configuration in site.ini.append.php
Also, the rule you placed in settings/siteaccess/[my_site]/override.ini.append.php is fine now you corrected it. The template is placed fine. I can't think of any reason why it doesn't work, as long as ezwebin extension is activated and caches are cleared, it should :(

I've been looking at other classes in the back-end. For example, in the editing screen of the class "Feedback form ", is this:
In my class get this:
Acceso al sitio
| Sobreescribir
| Plantilla fuente
| Sobreescribir plantilla
|
|
my_site
|
full_copy_of_feedback_form
|
/node/view/full.tpl
|

Hi David from this data, it seems that your override rule is being recognized, it is mentioned in the list, under "Sobreescribir", which I presume means "override", however "Sobreescribir plantilla" (override template) is empty, which suggests that either: 1) Your template file name is wrong or somehow at wrong location or can't be read
- The issue might also be if you created the new file with root priviledges, for example, and eZ Publish simply cannot read it due to lack of permissions
2) Your class identifier, "copy_of_feedback_form" is misspelled 3) "MatchFile=copy_of_feedback_form.tpl" or "Match[class_identifier]=copy_of_feedback_form" lines in your override rules are misspelled. Good luck in finding the issue!

Thanks, I'll keep searching. But what I find strange is that the class "Feedback form" the "template override" is also empty, except for the administration site.

I don't understand why, but I activated the "eZ Debug - List of used templates". I pushed the override button of the default template and i added the requested data of the new template and now it works :S

Glad to hear you solved it. This one was a weird one, I'll say!

It seems that the new configuration lines are added in the "extension/ezflow" directory and I added in "extension / ezwebin". Thanks for your help ;)

Do you know how I can make the content that users added in the form displayed on the homepage? Thanks, David

Hi David, you can use standard template fetch functions to fetch collection results and display them on any page. Take a look at the following fetches: http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/collected_info_collection http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/collected_info_count_list http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Modules/content/Fetch-functions/collected_info_count
