Message inviting to create a new template

Saturday 22 April 2006 6:40:33 am

Hello to all

I have created some templates following the online documentation and overriden the default ones. But when unlogged users visit the site there's always a message asking them to click on a link to create a new template for that object. Why does this message appear if I have already overriden the template for that object? Thanks for your help.

I overrode the template through the admin interface, selected the pagelayout.tpl from the template list and then selected the option to override pagelayout.tpl, the system asked for a name for the override and I wrote the same name "pagelayout", I copied the same code from the default template and changed some html tags but not the ez code tags.

The changes on the html tags took effect inmediately so the system is actually using the override, it shouldn't be asking me to create another override, right?

My override.ini.append.php looks like this

<?php /* #?ini charset="iso-8859-1"?

That message typically occurs when you have created a custom content class and not assigned appropriate templates for it.

The pagelayout template only controls the "non-content" elements of the page display such as headers, footers, and navigation. The part of the content that changes on every page is controlled by a combination of full view and line view templates, one for each type of content (class).

If you click on that link, you will be presented with an opportunity to create an override for that class. If you start with one of the default choices, you should end up with something that looks more like what you are expecting, and you can then customize the template that is created to fix it to display like you want.
