template manager bug (mos 4.5 1.0.7) ???

scheurer · 08.04.2004, 21:20

After installing a some new templates via uploading the zip-packages, it is not possible to change the template in the administration.

I publish a template (checked green) but the website shows the old template. I tried with all templates installed with the same result.

Any ideas?

Hi Mathias,

have you cookis enabled in your Browser ?
Do so, otherwise you will not see that an Template is changed.

All actions by the Temlatechooser also on the frontend (when published) will
be stored in cookis by mambo.

Hope, that is the solution...

Best regards

Hi,

yes I have. The problem occurs only in the Admin backend, the template chooser works very well.

Clear your cache and refresh your browser.

I haven't been able to duplicate the problem but someone has reported it to the bug tracker - http://mosforge.net/tracker/index.ph..._id=5&atid=101

After clearing the cookies (not clearing the cache!) and refreshing the browser
it works.

I think the template chooser sets a cookie and only the template
stored in the cookie will displayed in the frontend.To fix that a solution could be that mambo must ignore the

mos_user_template

statement in the cookie if the templatechooser module is
disabled!

The mos_user_template statement in the cookie should only used if the template chooser module is activated.

I've never came across this problem - all i can suggest is try an alternative browser to see if you get the same problem.
