tom howe	Wednesday 07 July 2004 6:20:42 pm When I go to Templates in "Setup" I do not see any editing buttons. If I clieck on "/node/view/full.tpl" I get a list of the override templates and they all have edit buttons and priority buttons. But none of the other templates have them, including pagelayout.tpl Does this mean I have to edit it via telnet/ftp and not through the web interface? Also, is there a way to search or browse the templates. There are 37 pages of them and its a bit slow to navigate through page by page... Im using version 3.4 Thanks in advance

If your view is set to ADMIN you won't see the correct templates. A search function forthe templates would be really nice. hth Michael

What about the pagelayout.tpl file I created in /design/<site>/Templates/

Also, how do I access and edit the contents of
/design/<site>/images
/design/<site>/stylesheets
through the admin interface?
