Wednesday 19 January 2011 5:28:22 am

Well I know how to re enable Design Tab
but i dont understand why they take it away.

In plus on new design tab there is no more is no more possible edit templated and ovverride it.

It was realy usefull feature and , according to many other ppls, we dont understand why it been disable or cancelled?

In next version can we have it back?

Thanks

Hi.

First, these were removed because on one hand, they weren't really maintained anymore, and that is because they weren't used much.

The chances that we reintroduce them in a later release are honestly limited, but this also depends on popular request. If you can get other people interested in this to post here, along with what they did / would use it for, please do, by all means !

In the meantime, the best move would in my opinion be to make this feature a community extension for those who actually need it. Anyone interested ?

uhm so which extension u can suggest me?
well the edit/override function for template was so usefull,
now for edit a template need to connect to server using ssh ,search file and edit with nano, and than clear cache, and if i need ovveride it i need change ini too... that was all automatic before :/

ps : there some one can explain me how to modify the Sitestyle ( was under Design > Layout and interface) without Design Tab?
