  • Status: Not a bug

Hello,

I have just wasted a number of hours before I realised what was happening ;-) Please fix this so others don't waste their time the same way.

When IN_DEV is set the database template is read from file under the cms application.

When IN_DEV is NOT set then the database template is read from the templates that you can see in adminCP.

The problem is that when IN_DEV is set you can still edit the templates using adminCP - but, of course, it has no effect until you disable IN_DEV. (I was going crazy trying to debug some problems because I could not get simple things like console.log() or alert() to work!)

At the very minimum we need a reminder message displayed on the adminCP templates page when IN_DEV is set. The reminder message should give a brief overview of what is happening -- e.g. #1 that the template files should be edited and #2 that when subsequently disabling IN_DEV there should be a documented procedure on how to ensure the development templates have been successfully imported.

Thanks very much.

John

I would suggest adding this to the feedback area as a suggestion for change. Documentation is something I believe is being worked on. This isnt a bug however.
