Hi, all

I want to embed the edit object function in my system

and let the user can create and edit their own object.

but now ,the problem is that I don't want the select language page during the editing function

how can I omit that page during edit

and also the Possible edit conflict page

how can I avoid the appearence of these pages

Thanks very much

Hi Bill,
you have to copy in your custom design these files:

../design/standard/templates/content/edit.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_attribute.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_draft.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_languages.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_placement.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_right_menu.tpl
../design/standard/templates/content/edit_validation.tpl

So you have:
..design/YourSite/override/templates/content/edit.tpl
..design/YourSite/override/templates/content/edit_attribute.tpl
etc.

In "edit.tpl" you find all the include of other files.
Remember to clear cache before testing your changes!

Sorry for my english!
Valentina

Hi, This is the way I solve this problem

for the select language page, just simply add /f/eng-US to the edit link

e.g. concat("/content/edit/",$object.id,"/f/eng-US")|ezurl

for the edit conflict page, no good solution

but in my case, user can only edit the object he create

so I first write a method to check whether the newest version to the published version

If it's create a new version

if not, just call the current newest version as the draft
