Hello,

i'm a newbie in Exponential and i need some help to render a personnalized object
i have created.

My object has 3 attributes

I have instanciate it twice and i've published it.

I tried to create an override.ini.append.php file containing :

[widget]
Source=node/view/full.tpl
MatchFile=abstract.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=widget

----------------------------------------------------

in my tpl file i list the widgets but i don't obtain the render of the widget stored in a tpl ...

{def $widgets=fetch( 'content', 'list', hash(
'parent_node_id', 2,
'class_filter_array', array( 'widgetPLE' ),
) )}

<ul>

{foreach $widgets as $widget}

<li>{content_view_gui view=full content_object=$widget.data_map.content}
</li>

{/foreach}

</ul>

do u have un idea ?

thanks,

brgds,

philippe

PS : sorry for my bad level in english ;)

Hi,
i think you have an error on your fetch function.

you have write this :

{def $widgets=fetch( 'content', 'list', hash(
'parent_node_id', 2,
'class_filter_array', array( 'widgetPLE' ),
) )}

but you don't specify the 

class_filter_type

parameter in your fetch
and your

class_filter_array
 have 
array('WidgetPLE')  as value

which is not the same with your identifier class in override.

[widget]
Source=node/view/full.tpl
MatchFile=abstract.tpl
Subdir=templates
Match[class_identifier]=widget

so try this code :

{def $widgets=fetch('content','list',hash('parent_node_id',2,
                                                        'class_filter_type',include,
                                                        'class_filter_array',array('widget')
                                                      )
                           )
}
and had your foreach

i think this can help you.

good luck

in fact it's not an error // my code is good according to this comment

fyi, my script gather information from database !!!

obviously, my class is called widgetPLE and not widget
it was an example ..

i reach informations but it's not well formed.

- is the template script good ?
- is the mapping seems to be good ?
- do u think i have to set the source in the overrive file to : "node/view/full.tpl"

i have no error but the render is bad ...

an other idea ? :)

Hi,
with your code 

{def $widgets=fetch( 'content', 'list', hash(
'parent_node_id', 2,
'class_filter_array', array( 'widgetPLE' ),
) )}

the system don't know if it must select the nodes with widget " class" or not.
so with your fetch the system will reach the node with any class and who have 

2

as parent.
so you must add the 

class_filter_type

parameter in your fetch to restric the selection to only the class "widget"

do understand?

i think this can help you.

Hi,
if you have store your style (class,id) in an css file
verify that the path to your css file is correct. to perform it , make see the source code on your browser.

re ...

the problem is not in CSS ...

when i list objets ... i wan't objects to be rendered thanks to the template linked in the
override.ini.append.php. - i'd like to list element and each element would be rendered with the abstract.tpl file !
....
the code i have inserted in this post is running except the visual part ...

my result is :

" Current version

Related objects
None "

Hi,
you says that:

when i list objets ... i wan't objects to be rendered thanks to the template linked in the
override.ini.append.php. - i'd like to list element and each element would be rendered with the abstract.tpl file !

we can go step by step :

1.do you know if the system find your override template ?

enabled the debug on your web site so you can know if your override template is find by the system.
to enabled the debug add these lines in your site.ini.append.

[DebugSettings]
DebugOutput=enabled
DebugRedirection=disabled

[TemplateSettings]
ShowXHTMLCode=disabled
ShowUsedTemplates=enabled
