Nesting page templates

Hi!
Can someone explain why it is not recommended to use page tmpletes nested in other pages / page templetes???
In:
Oracle® Fusion Middleware
Web User Interface Developer’s Guide for Oracle Application
Development Framework
11g Release 1 (11.1.1)
B31973-01
Section 17.3 Using Page Templates at the end of section there is very remarkable note:
Note: You cannot nest page templates inside other page templates.
I wonder what does this mean. I succesfuly used page templates nested inside page which already have a sorounding template. Even the nested template has a pageDef for it's own. If everything is properly set in accordance to Dev's Guide, I have no issues at all.
So, as the nesting of page templates is very useful (avoiding the restrictions of fragments/regions and no PPR to parent page), I relly wonder what is the problem here.

Pako,
there is no problem in fact other than the risk of recursions. The current state though is that the designtime doesn't support template nesting. However, at runtime this works and can be configured.

  • Page Element within PageDef Files for Nested Pages

    Hello all,
    I have found in the help file of the JDeveloper, information about the <page> element which can be added in a page's definition (xml file) for referencing a nested page definition, but it does not work, I do not know, perhaps I use it wrongly.
    Please any ideas or recommendations?

    Hi,
    nested bindings are not supported in 10.1.3.x. In Jdeveloper 11 the templating mechanism uses pageDef references

  • Page Template in SharePoint 2013 Online ?

    Hi All,
    I am doing cross site publishing wherein currently my Publishing site showing some departments like HR,Admin,Finance and using content search webpart to show the contents of each department using single Item page (item.aspx).
    I heard about the new concept of page template; so my question is instead of using item page how can we use single page template to display the contents across multiple departments.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Dhananjay

    Cross Site Publishing, would typically be done via the Content Search Web Part and the display templates. Can you have a look at this, as it might be what you meant?

  • Page Template Body 1,2,3 position to the left of the page

    Hi,
    How can make a page template as default.
    The situation is i have a theme which has a default page template set so that the "Page Template Body 2' comes to the the center(let me this be theme - theme 1). But there is another theme which gives me the option to
    set the 'page template body 2' to the left of the page(theme 2). I thought of switching the theme but my other setting for report will go for toss. So i have copied default template for page from theme 2 to theme 1, but i
    cant make the page template as default. How can make the page template to default ?
    Is there any other way of doing this so the 'Page Template Body 2' appears to the left.
    Thank you,
    rakesh

    In Application Builder:
    - Edit the Application
    - Click on Shared Components
    - Click on Themes
    > The current theme will have an 'asterisk (*)' by the theme name
    - DO NOT CLICK ON THE THEME
    - On the far right column will be a panel called Tasks
    - Click Edit Theme
    - Click on your current theme
    You'll see a drop down list that allows you to pick the default page template.
    Hope that helps.

  • A method to create completely customized photo book page templates from scratch in Lightroom 5

    I was able to successfully create completely customized Lightroom 5 page templates (including altering the number of, positions, and sizes of pictures) by making edits to the templatePages.lua file(s) in the Lightroom directory tree.  I have never heard of the LUA file format before, but it is ASCII and looks somewhat like XML, so it was fairly easy to decipher.  Here is a high-level description of how I did it.  This applies to Lightroom 5 on Windows 7.  If this doesn't make any sense to you, then don't try it - you're likely in over your head.  Although my description is brief and lacking in detail, it should enable someone who is capable of handling this to figure it out with a little of careful trial and error.  Do this at your own risk - if you screw-up your installation, catalog, or computer, it's your own fault.  It all worked great for me.
    First, open the "<lightroom 5 install directory>\Templates\Layout Templates" folder.  Then navigate to the template set that contains the template you would like to use as a starting point for the new template.  For example, "12x12-blurb\clean12x12".  Make a back-up copy of the templatePages.lua file in case you mess something up and want to revert.
    There will be a bunch of .jpg files in this directory that each contain a preview image of the layout that carries the same name as the .jpg file.  Find the one that you would like to use as a starting point.  Take note of the name of the file, which is probably something similar to "page_26_preview.jpg".   Duplicate the file and rename it to something unique, such as "dummy_preview.jpg".  It's just temporary, so it doesn't matter what name you pick, provided it is a legal file name with no spaces.
    Next, open the templatePages.lua file in a text editor.  I suggest using one that can automatically recognize and format ULA (such as Notepad++, which is open source and free to use).  Then search the file for the unique portion of the file name you took note of earlier, such as "page_26".  It will point you to a section in the LUA file that describes that particular template.  Carefully copy that entire section, including a balanced number of brackets (starting with the two brackets and commas before "children" and ending with the one bracket and comma after the "title" line.  Paste the copied text into the end of the file on a new line immediately following the bracket and comma after the "title" field for the last page template section (right near the end of the file).  Change the "previewName" field to the name of the preview file copy that you created ("dummy_preview.jpg" for me) and the "name" field to the name of the new template you're creating ("dummy" for me, since it is just temporary).  Next change at least one of the hex characters in the "pageID" field such that the new template will have a unique page identifier.
    Now you can make edits to the photo and text fields included in the new section, using other templates in the template file as examples.  "x" and "y" fields are coordinates (in pixels) for the bottom-left corner of the picture or text field, "height" and "width" are the width of the field in pixels.  The fields should be mostly self-explanatory, but make sure that the "photoindex" fields are filled-in starting from 1 to N, where N is the number of pictures in the template, with no duplicates or gaps.  They do not need to be in order.  Treat the "textIndex" fields similarly for text fields.  If you want to add an additional picture or text field, simply copy the section describing a picture or text field from another template and paste it, carefully, into the new template that you are creating.
    Once you are done, save the file (you may get interference from Windows UAC, in which case save the file elsewhere and the move it back to the correct directory).  Then open Lightroom.  Create a new photobook, and choose the new template for one of the pages, remembering that the preview image will look like the JPG that you copied.  Voila!  If you didn't screw anything up, you should see a page based on your new template.  Then right-click the page and select "Save as custom page", which will cause a fresh preview file to be created for your new template and your template to be copied to the "custom pages" section of the template menu.  The new section you added to the "templatePages.lua" and the "dummy" preview file can now be deleted, since they are no longer needed.  I save them so that I may simply overwrite them the next time I need to create a customized template.
    Enjoy, and please share any clarifications, corrections, or enhancements to my process.

    This post was great!  Thank you so much.  But I am hoping you know one more thing related to this.  In the "transform" section of the definition (where the x/y coordinates are set along with height and width) there is an option called "angle".  I was hoping that changing this value would allow me to offset the angle of the picture.  However, if I put any value there other than 0 the template becomes unusable.
    Do you happen to know what this option does?
    I haven't looked into the files, so this is just a guess based on how some graphic applications work. It's common to think of rotating a shape as pivoting around a center point, but It's possible that the file sets a value for the rotation point not at the center. In some graphics applications, you can set a shape's pivot at any corner or in the middle of any side, of the rectangle that contains the whole shape.
    So, your value may be rotating the shape around a pivot that moves the shape into some area that upsets the behavior of other shapes. Just a thought.

    Peter's point is a good one.  I would also assume that the "angle" property allows you to rotate an image, but I haven't tried it myself.  One thing to investigate - are there any page templates included in LR that have image placeholders that are at an angle (I don't recall any, off-hand)?  If so, looking at the associated .lua file could provide insight into how an angled image placeholder should be described.

  • How to code a Psd file for page template in DW to upload in bc

    Hi everyone. I was wondering. I have a psd file that I created that is my page template for my website. All the menus are on there, most of the content, and fancy designs. I've imported the psd in DW. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how to code it or where I could find a link to learn or follow the precedures to code a standard page template? I would really appreciate it! thanks

    Hello Pierre,
    Seeing that you are familiar with Photoshop, but not with Dreamweaver I assumed you are a designer. If my assumption is not correct, the rest of the message does not apply.
    You could try Adobe Muse for your task. Its purpose is to aid designers create HTML websites without writing code.
    Here's the product page (it is already free if you subscribed to Creative Cloud): http://www.adobe.com/products/muse.html
    And here is a tutorial explaining what you wanted to achieve: http://tv.adobe.com/watch/creative-suite-podcast-designers/how-to-use-photoshop-files-in-y our-muse-website/
    I hope that helps.

    Hi people!
    I get to resolve any items. Anything important are:
    - you can to view a structure of page template. The first you view it in the menu Shared Components >> Templates. There is a icon in the column "Preview" for the page, report and region template items. In the click on the icon you can view a template structure that should be shown in the execution.
    - You can view where will be inserted a region on the option "display point". You need to click on the icon in the right of the "display point" option;
    Well, If you pay attention in the two options you will know how to modify a template and how to create.

    Is there a way to set a page template for the detailed view of the news module?
    I have a page template setup and added the {module_announcement,,,,,} to the page. When the news item is clicked it always opens the default template - is this how it is designed to work or is there a way I can specify it to use a different page template?

  • How to change page template for a single page?

    I create a new document based on the Pages "Reports > Business Report".
    Now the first page is formatted as a "Cover" page with a larger top margin.
    Via "Format > Advanced > Manage Pages..." I see there are what I assume are the "Page Templates":
    - Cover
    - Table of Contents
    - Chapter Page
    - Text Page
    - Appendix
    My question: How can I change the template for a single page in my document? E.g. I don't want Page #1 to be formatted as "Cover". I'd like it to be a "Text Page".
    Any hints?

    Just delete the Cover section and insert a Text Page.
    Click on:
    +Toolbar > View > Page Thumbnails+
    Click on the Cover thumbnail, it will be outlined in yellow, hit delete.
    It may start off with certain defaults but you do not have to accept them.
