designBox_x.html

I want to create an extra designbox, designbox_4.html and use these for some custom HTML blocks.

In the DB, table sys_page_compose, I changed the value of the field 'DesignBox' to 4, hoping that it would pick up my newly designed designbox_4.html. Unfortunately it keeps using designbox_1.html, no matter to what value I change the field 'DesignBox'.

Does anyone know how these designboxes work, or if this might be a bug in dolphin (hardcoded designbox_1).

I did check the function DesignBoxContent and there seems to be nothing wrong with it, so it must get this value from somewhere. Ideas are welcome ;-)

"function DesignBoxContent ( $title, $content, $db_num = 0, $capti alt= '', $bottom_item = '' ) {
    return $GLOBALS['oSysTemplate']->parseHtmlByName('designbox_' . (int)$db_num . '.html', array("

Sounds like you did it correctly. The db change from 1 to 4 is all that is needed. So. How about the most common thing everyone over looks. Did you clear the cache.


I will repeat my suggestion for the 100 millionth time. While working on a site, leave caching off until you are done with everything. It will save you a lot of headaches.

uhhh, it was the cache

I did clean all the cache but for some reason the designbox information is not cleared. I noticed this several hours later (most likely when the cache expired) but cleaning the cache on its own is not enough.

Will disable caching from now on

Thanks!
