Hi all.

I'm a newcomer to the ezPublish world and in the next days will be moving an existing website to the ezPublish CMS.

We'll migrate the database and also the website design and multimedia files.

Is there any good places where I can find information about how ezPublish handles the design interface (e.g how to make templates) and how the database is structured (e.g. ezPublish database diagram)?

Thanks a lot.

Hi Fernando,

have a look in the docs, e.g. this:

http://ez.no/doc/ez_publish/technical_manual/4_0/templates

There some interesting guied tours here:

There is a (rather old) diagram of the database here:

Felix, thank you for the references.

I've watched the guided tours and it really gave me a good introduction of how the template system works in ezPublish. I liked the idea of classes to represent contents and also liked the templates that can be overrided.

I will concentrate now on the technical manual to go deeper on the subject.
