Hi, thanks Mark and Van, mvn and ant move these new files just fine (they are where you suggested, Mark). My issue is that the modification to template.xml suggested by the wiki...
http://wiki.dspace.org/index.php/Manakin_theme_tutorial#Adding_static_pa ges ...does not appear to work. I did try to feed "xsl:copy-of select" the full path (/themes/[your-theme]/pages/add.xml), as I thought maybe that was what you were suggesting, but I'm still seeing a Page not found error in the title of the page, and a blank body (i.e. all the other normal DSpace content is there, just the body section is blank). I can definitely confirm the files are all where they are supposed to be. >From your responses, I am assuming that, to add static content, you have just added a static xhtml page and linked directly to it? What I'm after is adding some basic static content within the DSpace site framework, so that other dynamic aspects, namely login, persist on the page. One other option mentioned on the wiki is: "2. Cocoon-based method. You could use cocoon to check the url right after the generation step, and then add in your own static DRI page. This method requires that all your static pages be expressed as DRI and then transformed into HTML by your standard theme templates. This method is useful if you will have lots of static pages that need to be managed, but requires modifying the cocoon sitemap.xmap." But this isn't fleshed out in as much detail, and I'm not sure I understand what it is I'd need to do with the sitemap.xmap file to get it going. If anyone has tried this approach, could you forward a sample to me? I haven't the foggiest idea how to express something as DRI [hangs head in shame], but this would probably be a fantastic way to learn! :-) The final option mentioned, using Apache to proxy to/from another server, is my failsafe option... I'm sure I could get that working, but it would not be ideal. --Hardy > -----Original Message----- > From: Diggory Mark [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: Thursday, February 12, 2009 7:28 PM > To: Van Ly > Cc: Pottinger, Hardy J.; [email protected] > Subject: Re: [Dspace-tech] adding static pages to a DSpace > site using xmlui > > The best location is > > [src]/dspace-1_5_1/dspace/modules/xmlui/src/main/webapp/themes > /[your-theme]/... > > This will allow you to access them from that path > "/themes/[your-theme]" > > I believe the location below will not work.
