how do I know which template is being used?

I'm having some problems figuring out which templates are being used, particularly in how I override the full.tpl template. I've read the documentation on templates and edited override.ini, but when I make changes I'm not getting any results. I have caching off and have deleted the cache files.

It would be a lot easier if the templates used to render the page were displayed when debugging is enabled. Then I would know exactly which template file I needed to override and/or replace. Is there some way to determine this?

Thanks,
Shaun

Turn on debugging in your site.ini.append, clear the cache, and reload the page. You should see what template is producing what part of the display. Below are the settings.

[DebugSettings]
DebugOutput=disabled
DebugByIP=enabled
# A array with IP addresses which will get debug information
DebugIPList[]
# Examples
#DebugIPList[]=1.2.3.4
#DebugIPList[]=192.0.0.42
Debug=inline
DebugRedirection=disabled

[TemplateSettings]
Debug=enabled
TemplateCache=disabled
