2.10.7. :-) The changelog says:
Launchpad #262313: respect the Expand macros when editing flag when
editing a page template through the ZMI
So Daymon: please switch to 2.10.7 or later.
I've been bitten by this too, in Zope 2.12 ;-)
I think the problem is that Zope *used* to ignore the .expand attribute,
but now doesn't.
I solved this problem with a script as follows:
for pt in app.ZopeFind(app,
obj_metatypes=('Page Template'),search_sub=1):
pt.expand=0
Put that in `somefile.py` in your zope instance and then do:
bin/zopectl run somefile.py
hth,

Re: [Zope] Disabling Expand macros when editing
Damon Butler, on 2009-09-03: Hi, We just recently upgraded from various installations of Zope 2.7/2.9 to Zope 2.10. The page template feature Expand macros when editing is causing us major headaches. It is checked on by default, and as a result, the instant we wish to view the source code of any ZPT, it has been mangled into expanded form before we have a chance to do anything to it. THIS IS BAD! How can we turn this feature off globally? Right now, it is flatly impossible for us to edit most of our ZPTs because the instant we even look at them they are mangled. We can't even uncheck the option without saving the mangled version. It's Catch-22 of the worst sort. Please help! I created a fresh Zope 2.10.9 instance. This option is not checked by default. But when you check it and save the form it remains checked for that template. Try appending ?expand:int=0 to the url. That does the trick for me. -- Maurits van Rees | http://maurits.vanrees.org/ Work | http://zestsoftware.nl/ This is your day, don't let them take it away.

However, your URL trick makes absolutely no difference whatsoever. The ZPT code has already been expanded even when we avoid the ZMI and access the ZPT by putting the URL to the ZPT object -- with your query parameter -- into our browser. We are currently using Zope 2.10.6. Has this problem been fixed with Zope 2.10.9? I simply cannot believe that there is NO WAY to turn this option off. How silly is it that it appears to be literally impossible to view the original source code for a ZPT?! --Damon ___ Zope maillist - Zope@zope.org https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce https://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev )
