In a zone, by defaut, it allow create all the block type.
For avoid it, change the template page/zone.tpl.
line 11 :

{foreach ezini( 'General', 'AllowedTypes', 'block.ini' ) as $type}

By

{foreach ezini( concat($attribute.content.zone_layout,'_zone',$zone_id) , 'AllowedTypes', 'block.ini' ) as $type}

And define the list block allowed by zone de layout in block.ini.

like this

#block.ini.

[HomeTOTO_zone1]

AllowedTypes[]=block1

AllowedTypes[]=block2

[HomeTITI_zone2]

AllowedTypes[]=block3

Hi Bin Liu,

thanks for the very useful hack. I altered it so that blocks are en-/disabled per layout.

{foreach ezini( $attribute.content.zone_layout , 'AllowedBlocks', 'zone.ini' ) as $type}

Afterwards the zone.ini needs to be extended as follows

[GlobalZoneLayout]
ZoneTypeName=Global zone layout
Zones[]=main
ZoneName[main]=Global zone
ZoneThumbnail=globalzone_layout.gif
Template=globalzonelayout.tpl
AvailableForClasses[]=global_layout
AllowedBlocks[]=DemoBlock
AllowedBlocks[]=Manual2Items
AllowedBlocks[]=Manual3Items
AllowedBlocks[]=Manual4Items
AllowedBlocks[]=Manual5Items
AllowedBlocks[]=Dynamic3Items

Works and does the job, although your hack is more fine grained. Thanks for the hint and best wishes

Sebastian

Hi Bin Liu,

very usefull tip, thank you.

I use it that way

- use zone_identifier string
- use [General]-Block as default

{def $allowedBlocks = cond(ezini( concat($attribute.content.zone_layout,'_', $zone.zone_identifier) , 'AllowedTypes', 'block.ini' )|count(), ezini( concat($attribute.content.zone_layout,'_', $zone.zone_identifier) , 'AllowedTypes', 'block.ini' ), ezini( 'General', 'AllowedTypes', 'block.ini' ))} 

{foreach $allowedBlocks as $type}
 <option value="{$type}">{ezini( $type, 'Name', 'block.ini' )}</option>
 {/foreach}
#block.ini

[MyLayout_left]
AllowedTypes[]=news
AllowedTypes[]=content

[MyLayout_right]
AllowedTypes[]=teaser
