[EP-tech] Re: Dynamic Content and pins

[Alan.Stiles]

Hi Matt,
The main index page is defined in
.…/eprints3/archives/<ARCHIVEID>/cfg/lang/en/static/index.xpage

Try adding your pin there.  Not sure whether the pin logic needs to be in dynamic_template.pl or somewhere else for this page though – give it a try and see what happens.

Subject: [EP-tech] Dynamic Content and pins

Hi All,

I am trying to add some dynamic content onto the index page,

According to the doco, last updated 2012, (http://wiki.eprints.org/w/Branding_with_confidence#Pins) to add dynamic content into a template

Create the pin/logic in the dynamic_template.pl file

Then edit your xml file e.g. “archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/lang/en/templates/default.xml”

So far, so good, This all works and I can drop dynamic content into the resulting page…via the xml… and it will render between the title and the xpage’s content…

<!-- MAIN CONTENT BOX -->
<div id="ep_tm_page_content_container">
  <div class="ep_tm_page_content">
    <h1 class="ep_tm_pagetitle">
      <epc:pin ref="title"/>
    </h1>
    <epc:pin ref="matts_dynamic_content"/>
    <epc:pin ref="page"/>
  </div>
</div>
<!-- END MAIN CONTENT BOX -->

BUT….

How do I get it to drop the dynamic content within the layout of the xpage…  I thought it would be simple, maybe, it’s just a Friday thing….

Any help would be appreciated.

Matt
