 I have tried to do a custom node-product template in my theme. I have the theme enabled via the sections module and node/* is included in the list. I have added node-product.tpl.php to my theme but is does not seem to have any effect. Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thanks, -K 
Re: custom product template?
Same problem here in 6.1 / 2.0 beta5 created a node-product.tpl.php file in the theme folder and added the code found here: http://www.ubercart.org/forum/development/3868/nifty_products_tutorial_p... disabled caches & theme registry can't get anything to change on a product detail page. Sort of totally disappointing.  
Re: Re: custom product template?
I created a node-product.tpl.php in the theme directory of the theme I'm using (e.g. /themes/garland/ ), emptied the cache tables with the devel module, and viola it worked. As it always has ... I guess you put your node-product.tpl.php in the wrong place, named it wrong (product classes use a different .tpl.php, not node-product), didn't clear all the cache tables, or something of that nature. Nothing really that Ubercart could be doing to mess up this Drupal template loading mechanism.  
Re: Re: Re: custom product template?
For some reason I have found that the registry won't accept your node-product.tpl.php if there is not a node.tpl.php file in your theme directory. I haven't seen this documented anywhere (but I haven't looked a whole lot) but on our site, we have a D6 sandbox, and experienced the same thing. I created node-product.tpl.php, but still our nodes were not being rendered with the new template. (This is using a Zen subtheme, btw.) As soon as I copied the node.tpl.php file from the Zen folder into my Subtheme folder, the node-product.tpl.php file started taking effect. Very strange.
That did it
You advise worked perfectly. and it is strange it would do that...
Thank you!
torgosPizza - Thankyou so much! I've been staring at my node-product.tpl.php for 2 days now completly unable to fathom why it was not doing anything. I copied the zen node.tpl.php into my sub theme and bang it worked straight away. Thankyou so much for figuring this out!
Drupal 7 template names
I've spent some time over this, modifying my website www.cp-dev.com . The issue with Drupal 7 and product templates is in minuses in file name. So you have to have two dashes instead of one. The template that sells content type 'services' turns from node-services.tpl.php into node--services.tpl.php . |
