Bertrand Dunogier	Saturday 12 February 2005 7:47:53 am With the current system, it looks like it is impossible to override the same templates in several extensions without one of them depending on one or more of the others. What does the order depend on ? Some order in the way extensions are loaded ? Is that already handled in existing extensions ?
Bertrand Dunogier	Sunday 13 February 2005 2:04:09 am I have a more accurate exemple now. For what I'm currently doing (simplified version of the admin interface for editors), I have to change design/admin/templates/content/edit.tpl But I have xmlarea installed, and it has an override for that file. What can I do ? Is there any way to have the same extension work in both cases (XML Area installed / not installed) ? Thanks in advance.
