I've asked this quesiton twice, and have tried answer my own qestion by looking at the code on template in the mean time -- without success. Please help.

The quesiton is: How do I make sure that advancedsearch.tpl shows under a certain pagelayout? (Similarly, how do I make sure that the basket.tpl shows under a certain pagelayout?) Because Search and Shop are not part of the Content module, I do not know how to assign "section" (and in turn pagelayout) to them.

Anyone please give me some clue? Even just where to look for the relevant php codes will be great...

Thanks a lot in advance.

Out of curiousity, have you tried to turn on template debugging so it displays each template that is used on the page? This might give you an idea of where the code for search and shopping are generated.

Change the following code (disabled > enabled) in site.ini or add it to the site.ini.append for the site you are working on to enable debugging.

[TemplateSettings]
Debug=disabled

Just a thought,

Alex

You should take a look at the kernel/user/login.php file, look at the bottom and you'll see the lines.

if ( $ini->variable( 'SiteSettings', 'LoginPage' ) == 'custom' )
$Result['pagelayout'] = 'loginpagelayout.tpl';

Which tells eZ publish to use loginpagelayout.tpl for pagelayout template instead of the standard.
The 'if' statement is only there to see if a custom layout should be used.

The downside to this method is that you have modify the code for advanced search. We generally do not recommend this due to problems with future updates.

I started a discussion on how this can be solved without PHP code here:
