steve walker	Wednesday 12 May 2004 1:44:55 am Hi there, No replies (as usual :((((( ), but live in hope... I have started to try a work around to achieve the above. On my frontpage it references the 4 latest new articles. The first one is large format style, second two small format, and the fourth one is again large. It used the 'line view' (article_view.tpl) to list the news items. What I have started doing is creating a new line view called 'mline' - I have put identical template override as article_view.tpl but have specified the smaller image. However, when I try to use my new view I've created, debug gives message of: "None of the templates design:node/view/mline.tpl could be found" However, in my template admin panel I can clearly see 'Template view /node/view/mline.tpl' so it should be there?? Do I need to register this new view anywhere so that my line: '{node_view_gui view=mline content_node=$news.item}' uses the new view it up as intended. A quick reply or pointer would be greatly appreciated. Steve. http://www.oneworldmarket.co.uk

You mentioned that you can see the template in the admin view, but you may want to check that it is placed in the proper directory of your site view as well: /design/your_site/templates/content/view/mline.tpl.

steve walker	Wednesday 12 May 2004 7:28:53 am Alex, thankyou for the response. I had the new view originally stored in: /design/<name_of_site>/templates/node/view/mline.tpl and I changed it as you said to /design/<name_of_site>/templates/content/view/mline.tpl but didnt get any change... still have message of: "one of the templates design:node/view/mline.tpl could be found". The error message suggests it should be in 'node/view' rather than 'content/view'? Any other thoughts? Thanks, Steve. http://www.oneworldmarket.co.uk
Alex Jones	Wednesday 12 May 2004 7:43:23 am Hrrrm, try using <i>{content_view_gui view=mline content_node=$news.item}</i> instead of <i>{node_view_gui view=mline content_node=$news.item}</i>, clear the cache and see if that helps.

steve walker	Wednesday 12 May 2004 8:16:11 am Alex, Araid it then gives error: "Missing parameter content_object". Is there anywhere I might have somehow configured an incorrect path in the ini files? I had to change the site name midway through build... I've tried making other new views for test purposes, but always same result. Thanks, Steve. http://www.oneworldmarket.co.uk
steve walker	Wednesday 12 May 2004 8:22:59 am Alex, Fixed it! I has the /var/* path set wrong in site.ini.append, have changed this and am now getting some sense back! I'd like to thank you very much for your help, its been really appreciated. Kind regards, Steve. http://www.oneworldmarket.co.uk
