How to replace root "Content" with a 'frontpage' objet ?

Wednesday 30 July 2008 4:31:46 am

I think you must change it in database

firstly, import the class "frontpage".
if you have it by default, the class ID is 23

Then, use phpmyadmin, in table ezcontentobject_tree find the contentobject_id of the node_id 2. by default is 57

do (before this, please backup the database.)

update ezcontentobject set contentclass_id = 23 where id =57;

delete from ezcontentobject_attribute where contentobject_id = 57;

In the BO, delete the vache view node 2, and edit it, add a new version

normally, it's in frontpage.

Good luck

Hi,

In eZ publish serie 4.x, you have to type

UPDATE `ezcontentobject` SET `contentclass_id` = '23' WHERE `ezcontentobject`.`id` =1 LIMIT 1 ;

where folder is class 1 and frontpage class 23

Did a "UPDATE..." in mySQL. The content root now is listed as a "Frontpage" and not a "Folder". My problem is that it still only shows Folder-attributes, and not any Frontpage attributes as "Banner" etc. I allso have emptyed all caches. What am I doing wrong here?

Thanks, would believe that it would do the trick. However did I just use Gaetano Giunta's swap object tip to work around the problem. (Didn't know that you had to left click the icon to acess the context menu - new world opened ).

Anyways, problem solved! Thanks!
