Hi all, I have been given to look at a website running on Zope for one of our partner. The site has been installed by a developer who since left that partner. The installation is as often undocumented which doesn't really help me getting through the setup. Zope 2.7.5 is installed, CMF 1.4 as well. All I need to do is to modify the address of our partner which appears at the bottom of page when you go on their home page. Simple... well I thought it would be... I did a search within the Zope file system on the server hoping I would find the template used to generate the index_html but I could't found any file containing the address but a siteroot_view.pt file. However this file doesn't seem to be the one I am looking for. I modified it, restarted Zope, checked the page (after cleaning my browser cache)... but I can't see the change I have made. I then logged on the CMS site to check if the footer could be changed from there; it cannot be changed. I can modify some portion of the page but not the footer. I then logged on the Zope Management Interface and tried to understand where the footer could be defined but with no success. Taking a look to the log files didn't help neither; Nor to the Zope/CMF manuals. I am basically out of ideas! Any help to figure out how to find that template will be appreciated!! Any idea where to locate that template or modify that template? Could it be that the template is only stored in the Zope DB and not accessible/visible as text file? I must have missed something...

The template that does the footer is probably in the portal_skins folder. Poke around there. I'm not a CMF/Plone expert but there are lots of people on the plone mailing list who are. Good luck On 2/6/06, David De Maeyer <bioman226@yahoo.fr> wrote:

David, Look in portal_skins/portal_templates. The headers and footers are there. If you plan to customize a template you'll have to click the customize button. This will make a copy of the template in portal_skins/custom. After clicking the customize button the template will be opened in your browser at that "directory". BTW, this question should have been asked in the Plone mailing list. Please join that mailing list and ask Plone specific questions there. You'll get prompt and courteous responses there as well :-) Cheers! Barry Drake --- David De Maeyer wrote:

Sorry for posting in the wrong mailing-list. I actually did found the templates just after posting my mail; and did the changes. It worked after a bit of tweaking. Surprinsingly I have been able to modify/saving one template after logging as emergency user but I haven't been able to modify a second template. I had to create a new user with manager credentials to be able to modify/save it. Anyway... it is done. Thanks for the replies! Regards, David --- Barry Drake <bldrake@adaptcs.com> a écrit :
