[Zope-CMF] CMF portal_catalog(path) and VirtualHostMonster

Tue, 4 Mar 2003 11:43:26 -0600

Mark,

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. Here is how I addressed the 
problem.

In the main_template Page Template, I added the following definition in 
<html tal:define="...
  ...
  portal_path python: 
modules['string'].join(portal_object.getPhysicalPath(), '/');
  ...

I then used 'portal_path' to construct the catalog queries:
  ...
  , path='%s/pubs' % portal_path
  ...

Works with and/or without the VH. The suggestion saved me hours of work. 
Not for everyone, and there may be some unforeseen down sides, but it 
works well so far.

Thanks so much!
