New template

Friday 31 December 2010 9:25:07 am

Hi David,

you need to put your template in mydesign/override/templates/full/ folder. Best practice is that you tpl file name matches your class identifier. So if your new class identifier is my_class, the full path to the new tpl file should be mydesign/override/templates/full/my_class.tpl

After that, you need to add the following in settings/my_siteaccess/override.ini.append.php and clear ini & override caches. (full details at: http://doc.ez.no/eZ-Publish/Technical-manual/4.x/Reference/Configuration-files/override.ini)

[full_my_class]
Source=node/view/full.tpl
MatchFile=full/my_class.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=my_class

Hi David,

this setup should work without problems. You can check couple of things:

1) Did you clear your caches? Maybe purge var/cache and var/ezwebin_site/cache folders directly from the disk?

2) Does your siteaccess use ezwebin as the main or additional design?

3) Are the new settings in override.ini.append.php correct? Doublecheck them.

Hi David,

you have an error in your override rule. Third line "MatchFile=copy_of_feedback_form.tpl" should be "MatchFile=full/copy_of_feedback_form.tpl"

Change that, and clear the caches from administration.

To answer your other questions (but I suppose they are not necessary since override.ini is cause of your problem)

1) You can clear the cache from disk by first positioning yourself in your ez publish install directory and then running the following (take care while running the commands, if not careful, rm can be destructive, do backup your site please!)

rm -rf var/cache

rm -rf var/ezwebin_site/cache

2) You can verify that your siteaccess is using ezwebin design by checking the following in site.ini

[DesignSettings] AdditionalSiteDesignList - ezwebin should be listed in this array

or
[DesignSettings] SiteDesign - ezwebin should be the value of this configuration

hi David.

could you please paste here the entire DesignSettings group in your settings/siteaccess/[mysite]/site.ini.append.php file?

There's one thing i can't understand well. You say you have SiteDesign=admin but you seem to be working with a custom design (mysite), right? It's strange to have SiteDesign=admin in a custom design...

Hi David,

by mentioning site.ini, I was referring to settings/siteaccess/[my_site]/site.ini.append.php, maybe I should've been more clear, sorry about that :)

Now, I see nothing wrong in your [DesignSettings] configuration in site.ini.append.php
Also, the rule you placed in settings/siteaccess/[my_site]/override.ini.append.php is fine now you corrected it.
The template is placed fine.

I can't think of any reason why it doesn't work, as long as ezwebin extension is activated and caches are cleared, it should :(

Thanks also for all the help ;)
Try it again, for sure I am overlooking something.

Hi David

from this data, it seems that your override rule is being recognized, it is mentioned in the list, under "Sobreescribir", which I presume means "override", however "Sobreescribir plantilla" (override template) is empty, which suggests that either:

1) Your template file name is wrong or somehow at wrong location or can't be read

• The issue might also be if you created the new file with root priviledges, for example, and eZ Publish simply cannot read it due to lack of permissions

2) Your class identifier, "copy_of_feedback_form" is misspelled

3) "MatchFile=copy_of_feedback_form.tpl" or "Match[class_identifier]=copy_of_feedback_form" lines in your override rules are misspelled.

Good luck in finding the issue!

I don't understand why, but I activated the "eZ Debug - List of used templates".

I pushed the override button of the default template and i added the requested data of the new template and now it works :S

It seems that the new configuration lines are added in the "extension/ezflow" directory and I added in "extension / ezwebin".

Thanks for your help ;)

Hi David,

you can use standard template fetch functions to fetch collection results and display them on any page.

Take a look at the following fetches:
