Which template file?

I am trying to output object instances' attribute values from the File class by using the {$node.object.data_map.attribute_identifier.output} command.

The only question I have is: What template file should I edit?
I tried to override the /content/view/line.tpl file for the File Class, but nothing is output. Perhaps it's the wrong template file I'm overriding.

I have searched all the eZ site for information on what templates files to edit to get the desired output results. Without luck.

Any idea on what template file I should edit to get the objects' attribute values output?

Thanks!

I imagine you're after the full.tpl template

line.tpl is the template which displays the object under a folder, the full.tpl template is the template which displays the object in its entirity.

Hi there,

in such cases, Template Debug comes in handy. Turn it on in your site.ini.append in the /settings/override/ folder:

[TemplateSettings]
# Use either enabled to see which template files are loaded or disabled to supress debug
Debug=enabled

This switch causes eZ Publish to render all used templates in your HTML output and you can easily locate the template you need to a) edit or b) override.
