commit 97e96de04a988b4144da29806ed94348f3439b37 Author: Aaron Wells <[email protected]> Date: Tue Jun 10 13:19:12 2014 +1200 Refactor the Dwoo_Template_Mahara files Bug 1231755 - Cleanup, documentation, and removing replicated code. - Not checking for whether the file exists. We'll just make a list of search paths and pass those through to Dwoo_Template_File, and let it determine which path has the file. - Eliminating the separate Dwoo_Template_Mahara classes for plugintypes, and moving the custom logic for how plugintypes find their template files, into the Plugin class itself.

So, this is handy for plugin authors, but not for custom theme developers. I propose the following: 1. We allow for /local overrides of plugin templates. The path should be local/theme/templates/{plugintype}/{pluginname}/{template} . Or in the case of plugins that live underneath other plugins (i.e. blocktypes under artefacts) local/theme/templates/{plugintype1}/{pluginname1}/{plugintype2}/{pluginname2}/{template}. So: local/theme/templates/artefact/internal/content.tpl local/theme/templates/artefact/internal/blocktype/textbox/content.tpl 2. For custom themes, we take a similar approach: theme/{themename}/static/templates/{plugintype}/{pluginname}/{template} theme/aaronstheme/static/templates/artefact/internal/content.tpl theme/aaronstheme/static/templates/artefact/internal/blocktype/textbox/content.tpl And in order of precedence: 1. /local theme overrides 2. custom theme located under /theme directory 3. theme template files locate under plugin's directory To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/mahara/+bug/1231755/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~mahara-contributors More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
