Marco Zinn	Saturday 04 June 2011 10:30:00 am Hi there, i'm trying to add ezflow to an existing ez 4.4 site, which is currently running ezwebin. Unfortunatly, the docs for ezflow do not seem to handle this szenario: It's only "install it in the first place with the wizard" or "upgrade it". I downloaded various packages from http://packages.ez.no/Exponential/4.5/4.5.0/ and installed them. I activated the extension and can add the new "layout" datatype to any class (e.g. my frontpages). I also applied the SQL stuff from the ezflow extension to create the new ezm* tables. But the layout only shows one zone ("Global Layout") or no zones at all, when i edit the class or the object with a "layout" datatype. zone.ini and block ini files look fine to me. But i muss the other layouts (2,3,4 zones). Is there any good documentation available or do you have a clue where to look for? Log-Files do not give any usefull hint.

Hello

the zones are contentclass defined : see the zone.ini configration file

you should had your template write in it :

i mean if i want to had a lyout to the article contentclass , i add it bby administration AND i add it in this config file like that :

[GlobalZoneLayout]
ZoneTypeName=Global zone layout
Zones[]=main
ZoneName[main]=Global zone
ZoneThumbnail=globalzone_layout.gif
Template=globalzonelayout.tpl
AvailableForClasses[]=global_layout

AvailableForClasses[]=article <- add this line for your content class on all zoning you want.

i hope that helps you.
