Including non-existing template

Friday 07 March 2008 5:07:41 am

Hi all,

In my pagelayout.tpl I am including my own tamplate (which is not exist)

{include uri='design:parts/xxxxxxxx.tpl'}

As we can read in the manual http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/concepts_and_basics/designs/design_combinations#automatic_fallback
if the requested file hasn't been found, eZ publish will display an error message.

I didn't create xxxxxxxx.tpl but eZ doesn't give me any error message.
I am using eZ 4.0 and I have enabled Template debug & Debug output.

My question is why eZ doesnt inform me about missing template?

Hi André,

I'm using template complilation and template cache.

[TemplateSettings]
TemplateCache=enabled
TemplateCompile=enabled

When I'm runing the page first time (after clearing cache), then eZ inform me:

Notice:
eZTemplate: Loading template "parts/xxxxxxxxx.tpl" with resource "design"

but template doesn't exist.

Hi Mike

On a pre-4.0 site it was possible to put non-override templates, like the one you have there, in the override folder. In 4.0 we have restricted this in a way that templates that are loaded by override.ini need to be placed in the override/templates folder and templates that are not loaded by override.ini should be placed in the regular templates folder, so it will be easier to find your templates back (at least if you are aware of this fact) and more predictable which template will be loaded. In your case, you have put a template not loaded by override.ini ({include uri='design:***.tpl'} and no override in override.ini for **.tpl) in the override/templates folder.

See "Step 4: Updating the system configuration", "Custom/override templates location" in the upgrade guide: http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/upgrading/upgrading_to_4_0/from_3_10_0_to_4_0_0
