Thanks for the reply, Dieter. Through further exploration I discovered
that they in fact *had* the correct meta_type. The problem I was
experiencing was that when I called objectValues('New MetaType') on
the object's parent, I didn't get anything back. It turns out that
this method operates on a dictionary maintained in the parent rather
than actually interrogating its children for their meta_type.
So I'm now using my own version of objectValues and all is well in my
application. It's an old version of zope (2.7.9), so I'm guessing that
a patch would be a waste of time at this point, yes?

[Zope] rename meta_type
Hello, I have a product in use on many of my client sites. I'd like to rename the meta_type of one of the classes, but I notice that when I do, the pre-existing objects retain their old meta_type. Is there a way for me to force a zope object to "reset" itself according to a modified class definition?

I'm guessing I can do this with a simple script that I include on every page, yes? That could work, but seems a bit error prone - that's why I'm looking for some sort of request hook. But maybe that's my best option within Zope.

Our host uses nginx, not apache. We can still do this w/ nginx configuration, but it means maintaining a configuration file rather than application code (which in my experience is more flexible/maintainable). Right now I'm just exploring options, so I'd still like to know how I can do this with Zope.

Thanks for the reply. The use case is that my client wants to block a range of IP addresses from being able to view their site. So I need to access the originating IP address and filter appropriately. I've written a few custom zope products before, but I've not done anything that really modifies zope's behaviour on every request - just on requests for the specific objects I'm publishing. So I'm familiar with the request object, but I don't know how to intercept *every* request. Are there any global request life-cycle hooks? If you can point me to those that would be a great help.

Hi, I want to show different things to different viewers based on their IP addresses. How can I do this?
