Andrew Lian	Sunday 06 March 2005 12:55:12 am I have just imstalled Exponential 3.5.1 on a Linux server. I am following the "turotial" guide for the TSCM website. I am a novice with Exponential. Part of the exercice is to replace some of the default displays with custom-built displays. After changing the templates, I cannot detect any changes in the displays for some templates, e.g. full_view_news_article. Some of the earlier templates seem to have worked. Is there some way that I can check whether or not the new template filesare being used and that is is not the defaults which I see in action? I have flushed the caches etc. and also removed the cache used by Netscap and IE. I would appreciate your help and advice. Many thanks Andrew Lian
Eivind Marienborg	Sunday 06 March 2005 1:58:57 am If your not on a live site, you can enable template debugging, which outputs the path of all used templates. [TemplateSettings] Debug=disabled Insert this into your settings/siteaccess/override/site.ini.append file, and you should see the used templates. Alternatively you can insert something that identifies your template, like a html comment: <!-- override/nameofyourtemplate.tpl --> View the source of the outputted page. If it includes the comment, it's your template.
Andrew Lian	Sunday 06 March 2005 4:34:13 pm Thank you very much for your response. I do have debug enabled - and that reveals nothing unfortunately. I have tried inserting the html as you say - but also with no success. It is as though the override files were not being read. I have checked the links inside Exponential and they appear to be correct amd the file permissions all seem ok. I always clear the caches in Exponential before testing. I wonder if there is a cache problem with in my browser - although I do clear my files too (I am using netscape 7 but have also used IE) I am oviously missing something. Thanks again and all the best. Andrew

[TemplateSettings]

<!-- override/nameofyourtemplate.tpl -->
