Alexandre Cunha	Monday 18 August 2003 3:56:12 am Hi, Last weekend, using the examples provided by the default ezP3.1 instalation, i created a small site using the Content Classes: folders, articles and pageinfo. I setup bilingual content too with links to switch between the two languages (content and interface). Great ! I have 2 questions about folder listing. 1 - When a link to a folder, i can get the articles list. Each articles uses the template (i use the default template with some changes) line_article.tpl to show header and intro for that article. Using the same aproach, i created a line_infopage.tpl and created the entry: [line_infopage] Source=node/view/line.tpl MatchFile=line_infopage.tpl Subdir=templates Match[class]=10 on the override.ini.append file (10 is the number of content class pageinfo) Unfortunately i dont get the expected result and dont see the result of line_pageinfo.tpl. What im missing ? 2 - I want create a default content article or pageinfo each time i choose a list content folder. Instead of articles list, I want display the complete content of the most recent article (or pageinfo) published and then the articles list using the line_article.tpl. Can someonte give ideas how to reach these results ?? Thank you, axel http://AlexandreCunha.com

Info page doesn't have an intro attribute for example, which means nothing will show up when you duplicate the article override for infopage. 2: I wanted that too and finally found a solution. When a user attempts to browse a folder the latest article in it is shown instead. How I accomplished this? I made an override for node/view/full.tpl matching the folder class, inside the template there is a fetch function with limit 1 that shows the latest article (using node_view_gui view=full) Under there you could print a list with the other articles using another fetch function.

Alexandre Cunha	Tuesday 19 August 2003 2:07:33 pm Thank you Sander, your answer is very helpfull. 1 - Your answer for my question 2, lightened me about the solution for the question 1. The problem is not in the line_infopage.tpl but in the folder.tpl (this is a override full.tpl for the class 1 - folder listing). Edited folder.tpl and find: class_filter_array, array( 1, 10 ) 10 is the class id for infopage. I change to: class_filter_array, array( 1, 11 ) and the problem is solved. 2 - Ok, you find the solution! I have the way to fetch limit 1. Trying to show the article using the article.tpl ... thanks axel http://AlexandreCunha.com

Hi,

Last weekend, using the examples provided by the default ezP3.1 instalation, i created a small site using the Content Classes: folders, articles and pageinfo. I setup bilingual content too with links to switch between the two languages (content and interface). Great !

I have 2 questions about folder listing.

1 - When a link to a folder, i can get the articles list. Each articles uses the template (i use the default template with some changes) line_article.tpl to show header and intro for that article. Using the same aproach, i created a line_infopage.tpl and created the entry:
[line_infopage]
Source=node/view/line.tpl
MatchFile=line_infopage.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class]=10
on the override.ini.append file (10 is the number of content class pageinfo)
Unfortunately i dont get the expected result and dont see the result of line_pageinfo.tpl. What im missing ?

2 - I want create a default content article or pageinfo each time i choose a list content folder. Instead of articles list, I want display the complete content of the most recent article (or pageinfo) published and then the articles list using the line_article.tpl.

Can someonte give ideas how to reach these results ??

Thank you,

Thank you Sander, your answer is very helpfull.

1 - Your answer for my question 2, lightened me about the solution for the question 1. The problem is not in the line_infopage.tpl but in the folder.tpl (this is a override full.tpl for the class 1 - folder listing). Edited folder.tpl and find:
class_filter_array, array( 1, 10 )
10 is the class id for infopage. I change to:
class_filter_array, array( 1, 11 )
and the problem is solved.

2 - Ok, you find the solution! I have the way to fetch limit 1. Trying to show the article using the article.tpl ...

thanks
