Hi,
I have just configured a new site with eZpublish 3.9.2. The site will be in 4 languages, and I choose these during the setup wizard. I noticed that I have in <i>/settings/siteaccess</i> 5 siteaccess for the frontend site: a siteaccess named for example <i>mysite</i>, and a siteaccess for each language. When I create a new template, I have to specify the override rule in every override.ini.append.php file? It seems so... There is a way to "global" override all the siteaccess?

Thx,

Salvatore

Hi,

What I usually do in these cases and to have one main override and symlink the other siteaccess to it

Or you could use AdditionalSiteDesignList[] in each siteaccess' site.ini:

[DesignSettings]
SiteDesign=siteaccess_site_design
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=common_site_design
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=base

Hi Salvatore

You could also have an extension that contains the settings/override.ini.append.php that is enabled for all siteaccesses. Also put a site.ini.append.php here with the common DB settings etc.

Cheers

Hi,

thank you for the responses!

I will try with the symlink, it seems the easiest way.

Thank you and bye,

Salvatore

For those that want to use the os safe way of doing this that Bruce is mentioning, remember to only specify the extension for the frontpage siteaccess using ActiveAccessExtensions.

So in /settings/siteaccess/*/site.ini.append.php:

[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveAccessExtensions[]=my_settings
