ez man	Monday 30 April 2007 5:45:47 am i want to add page with contact details on but i want it to be editable .. That is, i want to know how you can change dynamically using code instead of hard coding it. My contents are stored in design/override/templates in a file called events.tpl and i have hard coded contents "Contact us xyz +1-666-666-6666(off) +1-555-555-5555(mobile)" I want to put this content into ezpublish. that is to say that contents should be made dynamic I got a suggestion: extend your content class 'event' with a new textfield or a nother ez datatype. Then you can write this information to the content objekt and you can have access on it in the template over e.g {attribute_view_gui ... } but where can i see the class 'event' Any help?
Betsy Gamrat	Monday 30 April 2007 9:19:23 pm ez man, The suggestion is exactly what you need to do. Go to Setup > Classes > Content and edit the class that is displayed with events.tpl. Add an XML Block, or a text block. Next, go back to your template (events.tpl) and add the following line: {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.id_of_text_attribute} Then, edit the node that is being displayed to add the content in the field. Good luck
ez man	Monday 30 April 2007 11:08:42 pm I added new attribute as you suggested and got id 417 Then in events.tpl file i added {attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.417} but how do i edit the contents? it is not getting displayed in web page

That is, i want to know how you can change dynamically using code instead of hard coding it.

My contents are stored in design/override/templates in a file called events.tpl and i have hard coded contents

"Contact us
xyz
+1-666-666-6666(off)
+1-555-555-5555(mobile)"

I want to put this content into ezpublish.

that is to say that contents should be made dynamic

I got a suggestion:
extend your content class 'event' with a new textfield or a nother ez datatype. Then you can write this information to the content objekt and you can have access on it in the template over e.g {attribute_view_gui ... }
but where can i see the class 'event'

ez man,

The suggestion is exactly what you need to do.

Go to Setup > Classes > Content and edit the class that is displayed with events.tpl. Add an XML Block, or a text block.

Next, go back to your template (events.tpl) and add the following line:

{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.data_map.id_of_text_attribute}

Then, edit the node that is being displayed to add the content in the field.

Good luck
