Tore Skobba	Tuesday 06 April 2004 2:46:03 am Hi all I am trying to make my own workflow, this in order to place users in the correct user group depending upon what they enter in an toogle box. However, I am totally unable to get EZ to use my new workflow. Therefore I downloaded two workflows (mailinglist and shopsender) contributions, this in order to test them. But I have the same problem with those. EZ finds them in the Extension setup. However, after activating the new workflows they are nowhere to been seen.. Anyone know what I might be doing wrong? Or is it the EZ workflow ? I am using EZ 3.3-4 with the EZ installer (Apacke 1.34 etc). Cheers Tore

Tore Skobba	Tuesday 06 April 2004 5:49:20 am Hi Paul Thanks for help.. I rechecked everything and noticed that I did not have the: [ExtensionSettings] ExtensionDirectory=extension in my site.ini.append.php file. Once I entered it the workflows were found. However, my own is still nowhere to be found. I guess there is some undocumented critical elements in the workflows. Update: While working an inserting my own debug in EZ kernel classes I seem to have learnt that the acutal custom workflow event class name must be *Type i.e. ezuserplacement.php must be ezuserplacementtype.php? Is that correct? Is it so sensitive? Debug in admin return this: Workflow type not found: event_ezuserplacement, searched in these directories: kernel/classes/workflowtypes, extension/userplacement/eventtypes While this exsists "extension/userplacement/eventtypes/event/ezuserplacement.php".. But it seems to be totally unable to find it.. Anyone have any tips ? Cheers Tore

Guy Diels	Thursday 08 April 2004 1:39:59 am First of all, I'd recheck all of your names, with those forced conventions, it's really easy to make a mistake. I'm not sure, but isn't event_ezNNN the expected name of the associated template? You might try to add an empty template under your extension: \design\standard\templates\workflow\eventtype\edit\event_ezNNN.tpl and put this under settings in workflow.ini.append.php: [EventSettings] ExtensionDirectories[]=ems AvailableEventTypes[]=event_ezNNN oh, and activate your design in your extension Hope this helps
Matthew Carroll	Wednesday 29 March 2006 11:05:00 am Hi Tore On the off chance that you're still tracking this thread a year later, I was wondering if you could upload your userplacement extension or outline in a little more detail how you accomplished this - I need to do something very similar, placing new users in a certain group depending on input. Thanks Matthew http://carroll.org.uk

Tore Skobba	Wednesday 29 March 2006 11:26:46 pm Hi This was an old thread :), acutally I have recently made my workflow a bit more genereal and uploaded it to the contribution area (http://ez.no/community/contribs/workflow/automated_user_placment). Please feel free to use it :). Cheers Tore
