I have installed the ez publish 4.0( chose the default templates "ezwebin"), I just want to use a custom design( but don't want to change the default templates ). so i do followed the manual:

1. modify the file "site.ini.append.php" in "/setting/override/" as following:

[SiteSettings]
SiteList[]
SiteList[]=eng
SiteList[]=ezwebin_site_admin
SiteList[]=my_site

[SiteAccessSettings]
AvailableSiteAccessList[]
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=eng
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=ezwebin_site_admin
AvailableSiteAccessList[]=my_site

2. create a new siteaccess (named "my_site" ) in "/settings/siteaccess", and create a file "site.ini.append.php" in "/setting/siteaccess/my_site/" as following:

[DatabaseSettings]
DatabaseImplementation=ezmysql
Server=localhost
User=root
Password=XXX
Database=ezpublish
Charset=
Socket=disabled

[InformationCollectionSettings]
EmailReceiver=

[SiteSettings]
SiteName=TESTSITE
SiteURL=www.XXX.com
LoginPage=embedded
AdditionalLoginFormActionURL=http://127.0.0.1/index.php/ezwebin_site_admin/user/login

[UserSettings]
RegistrationEmail=

[SiteAccessSettings]
RequireUserLogin=false
RelatedSiteAccessList[]=my_site
ShowHiddenNodes=false

[DesignSettings]
SiteDesign=ezwebin
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]
AdditionalSiteDesignList[]=base

[RegionalSettings]
Locale=eng-US
ContentObjectLocale=eng-US
SiteLanguageList[]=eng-US
TextTranslation=disabled

[FileSettings]
VarDir=var/ezwebin_site

[ContentSettings]
TranslationList=

[MailSettings]
AdminEmail=admin@XXX.com
EmailSender=

i thought it will use default design with the codes above, but when i view "http://127.0.0.1/ezpublish/index.php" or "http://127.0.0.1/ezpublish/index.php/site/", it seems that it used the correct templates but always gave me an error message "Access denied", but i have set the codes RequireUserLogin=false in the file above, or it is because the codes in templates ?

i went through the fourm and got it was because of the "Roles and policies" in admin area for new siteaccess.
