Custom content presenter template - multiple items

Question

I am having an issue with using custom content presenter template...
Here are the steps I took:
*1. I created a single item display template veventItem_CP.jsff*
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
          xmlns:dt="http://xmlns.oracle.com/webcenter/content/templates"
          xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich">
  <dt:contentTemplateDef var="node">
    <af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl1" layout="vertical">
      <af:outputText value="#{node.propertyMap['dDocTitle'].value}" id="ot1"/>
    </af:panelGroupLayout>
  </dt:contentTemplateDef>
</jsp:root>
and create a portal resource:
Content Repository Name: UCM
Content Type: IDC:Profile:Event
Content Type Default View: true
View ID: veventItem_CP
*2. I created multiple item display template veventsList_CP.jsff*
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
          xmlns:dt="http://xmlns.oracle.com/webcenter/content/templates"
          xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich">
  <dt:contentListTemplateDef var="nodes" >
    <af:panelGroupLayout id="nodeListPanel" halign="left" layout="vertical" valign="middle" inlineStyle="text-align:left;">
      <af:iterator rows="0" id="i1" var="node" value="#{nodes}" varStatus="iterator"  >
          <af:commandLink text="#{node.propertyMap['dDocTitle'].value}" id="cl1"/>
          <dt:contentTemplate id="listitem" node="#{node}"
                view="veventItem_CP"
                nodesHint="#{node}"/>
      </af:iterator>
    </af:panelGroupLayout>
  </dt:contentListTemplateDef>
</jsp:root>
and create a Portal Resource:
Category Name: events
Category ID: *
Category Default View: true
View ID: veventsList_CP
*3. I drag and drop a folder from my UCM connection onto home.jspx and enter the following parameters into the binding:*
    <taskFlow id="eventsContentPresenter"
              taskFlowId="/oracle/webcenter/doclib/view/jsf/taskflows/presenter/contentPresenter.xml#doclib-content-presenter"
              activation="deferred"
              xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller/binding">
      <parameters>
        <parameter id="taskFlowInstId"
                   value="${'cd6c7cd6-2c74-4e6c-a711-a748d9abd0d8'}"/>
        <parameter id="datasourceType" value="${'dsTypeFolderContents'}"/>
        <parameter id="datasource"
                   value="${'AcqUCM#dCollectionID:133054394311000404'}"/>
        <parameter id="templateCategory" value="${'events'}"/>
        <parameter id="templateView" value="${''}"/>
        <parameter id="regionTemplate" value="${'false'}"/>
        <parameter id="maxResults" value="${''}"/>
      </parameters>
    </taskFlow> Then when I deploy the code the error I get is:
<TemplateRegistry> <getListTemplateViewId()> No default template view specified for category id 'events'. Returning the default view for the default category.

Hey Yannick,
I think you are mistaken...
I am using a contentListTemplate, and in the developer's guide it says to use the templateCategory for multiple-item content presenter templates. When I do what you suggested, my veventsList_CP doesn't work and the ADF default tempalte is used.
I accomplished what I needed to accomplish on the home page by re-writing my veventsList_CP to not use the nested template:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<jsp:root xmlns:jsp="http://java.sun.com/JSP/Page" version="2.1"
          xmlns:dt="http://xmlns.oracle.com/webcenter/content/templates"
          xmlns:af="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/faces/rich"
          xmlns:f="http://java.sun.com/jsf/core">
  <dt:contentListTemplateDef var="nodes" >
    <af:panelGroupLayout id="nodeListPanel" halign="left" layout="vertical" valign="middle" inlineStyle="text-align:left;">
      <af:iterator rows="0" id="i1" var="node" value="#{nodes}" varStatus="iterator"  >
        <af:panelGroupLayout id="pgl1" layout="vertical"
                             inlineStyle="padding-left:10px; padding-top:10px;">
          <af:commandLink text="#{node.propertyMap['dDocTitle'].value}" id="cl1"
                          inlineStyle="font-size:small; font-weight:bold;"/>
          <af:outputText value="#{upcomingEventsBean.dates}"
                         id="ot2"/>
        </af:panelGroupLayout>
      </af:iterator>
    </af:panelGroupLayout>
  </dt:contentListTemplateDef>
</jsp:root>
Now I need to make the commandLink direct to a content presenter display template that shows all of the event's metadata. I've done this before by using the default navigation model, but never programmatically. I will give it a try and report how it goes.
