How to override content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl ?

Tuesday 06 July 2010 5:45:47 am

Hi,

I have an issue for overriding the content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl template.

I thought it was trivial... and it seems not to work.

This template is used when you put a link on a text in eZoe.

I have inserted the following lines in my override.ini.append.php file:

[link_image]
Source=content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl
MatchFile=link/image.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=image

... and the link/image.tpl is not used when I insert a link to an image (I cleared all caches before, of course).

Any idea?

Thanks a lot.

The link it self does not have any override for class_identifier (if it does then that is probably something that comes from the object it is part of, for instance: article, and not the embed object bellow it in the structure: the image).

You can however do this kind of override for the <embed> tag (the actual relation to your image), as already done out of the box for embed image relations.

Hi,

Thank you very much for your replies, I now understand where my mistake was.

For your information, I found a workaround.

The "overriding" for this purpose can be done inside the content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl code:

{def $mycontent = fetch(content, node, hash(node_path, $href))
$object_class = $mycontent.object.class_identifier
$attribute = ""
$url = false() }
{switch match=$object_class}
{case match='link'} specific code... {/case}
{case match='file'}
{set $attribute=$mycontent.data_map.file}
{set $url=concat( '/content/download/', $attribute.contentobject_id, '/', $attribute.id,'/version/', $attribute.version , '/file/', $attribute.content.original_filename|urlencode )}
<a href={$url|ezurl} target="_blank">{$content}</a>
{/case}
{case match='flash'} specific code... {/case}
{case match='image'} specific code... {/case}
{case}
<a href={$href|ezurl}
{if $id} id="{$id}"{/if}
{if $title} title="{$title}"{/if}
{if $target} target="{$target}"{/if}
{if $classification} class="{$classification|wash}"{/if}
{if and(is_set( $hreflang ), $hreflang)} hreflang="{$hreflang|wash}"{/if}
>
{$content}
</a>
{/case}
{/switch}
{undef}

Cheers,

Hi André,

Thank you for your reply.
Excuse me, I don't really understand your patch, and the change it is supposed to provide.

I've applied the patch on my kernel/classes/datatypes/ezxmltext/handlers/output/ezxhtmlxmloutput.php file. What is the effect supposed to be provided ?

I have created the following entry in my override.ini.append.php:

[link_image]
Source=content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl
MatchFile=link/image.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=image

And also created the following file: extension/[myExtension]/design/[myDesign]/override/templates/link/image.tpl

I created a page with several links to different objects & nodes.

I've cleared all caches.

But there is no change, whatever the object classes they are linked to, the applied template is still content/datatype/view/ezxmltags/link.tpl

Did I make a mistake? Or misunderstood your patch?
