Hi all, Could someone please help me out here. I am trying to use manage_clone to clone python scripts and Page Templates into a newly added folder into the Zope Directory Structure everytime I add a folder into the Zope Directory Structure If not manage_clone what other function can i use to dynamically add Python Scripts and Page Templtes to my newly created folder , like creating a microsite for registered members. For every registered member I want to create a microsite with his own set of file in it. But I am not being able to do it Using manage_clone in a Python file and adding it as an external method does not work as it is asking the user to Login to the ZMI.Then the whole point of my site is gone. I wanted to add a new folder for a registered memebr when he registers and create a minumum number of files in the folder which will give him functionality. This is excactly similar to what Zope does when adding a Folder Object.You can also dynamically add an index_html Page into it. Exactly simliar is my need..to add a folder for a new user and then add 2 python scripts and two page templates into the newly added folder. The maange_clone function requires a user to be logged in to the ZMI. Please help me out here. Thanks once again and Best regards John : Hi Phil , : : Thanks for yopur prompt reply .
