Where to edit profiles? Dynamic.tpl or not
August 09, 2010, 07:43:29 am
Hi,

I want to modify a civicrm profile used on drupal login, and so added some code in Dynamic.tpl. I tried to edit templates/CRM/Profile/Form/10/Edit.tpl (where 10 is the id of the profile I want to modify), but none of those changes showed up, hence I hacked Dynamic.tpl. Is this how I should go about it or should I add the code somewhere else?

Cheers,

Marc

hey marc:

the main issue is the specific template customization does not flow down the template inclusion path (it can with a few more core code changes, but currently not) (i.e. since Edit.tpl includes Dynamic.tpl, the specific id template cstomization does not work for Dynamic.tpl)

also since drupal registration can include multiple profiles, it does not follow the specific  profile id inclusion path also.

If you are interested in making changes to this, get on IRC and we can point you down the right path

Any insight in this? I am trying to modify the layout of my drupal registration and edit. I thought I could accomplish that by making a custom edit.tpl and view.tpl. My understanding (am a bit new) is to use debug to get the variables and arrange accordingly on edit.tpl and view.tpl in my respective over ride folder. Am I heading down the wrong path?

yes, i would modify edit.tpl and within that, i'd include my modified dynamic.tpl or inline it in the edit.tpl file itself
