A funny one. v0.6

I have copied the fineprint.html template over to my application templates directory and changed the text. When I run my application, the fineprint stays the same. I have followed the same process for the logo and that works fine.

Any ideas?

Many thanks

Neil

Not sure how you’re using fineprint.html as template, maybe you can elaborate.

Sometimes, I noticed that some template changes aren’t reflected after saving it. However, if you go into templates_c (where Smarty stores cached version of the generated templates) and clear the files in there, it sometimes solves the problem.

OK.. in Dataface 0.6 I think I just did the fine print directly in the MainTemplate.html template. The fineprint.html template was used in 0.5.3, but has now been deprecated (i’m talking off the top of my head here, and will have to look into it more closely).

Your memory was correct. Problem solved.

Thanks
