Overriding templates for new user notification. Dw 9.7.4, no Rapido

In the integration module, there is an option of sending a notification to a newly registered user. In a dropdown list I can choose which template I want to use. However, the files I can choose from is located under Templates/user management/user provider even if I've made custom templates under Designs/designname/user management/user provider

Am i missing something here or is this how it is supposed to be? What will happen with my custom made templates in the Templates folder upon update?

Hi Siv,

 

I believe this is by design because Data Integration does not run in the context of a website.

 

When things DO run in the context of a website:

  • DW checks the Design
  • A Design is tied to a /Templates/Design/My_Design_Folder
  • That allows DW to be able to go through */UserManagement/*

 

In the case of DataIntegration, it does not run in the context of a website, so Dynamicweb does not have a Design folder to reference. That's why it goes to Templates/UserManagement.

 

What you can do is to create a custom field in that folder too, with just @Include('/Files/Templates/Designs/My-Design-Folder/UserManagement/My-Custom-Template.cshtml)

 

Hope that helps you,

Nuno Aguiar

Thanks, that was helpful and quite understandable.

My next question is then; will the changes I've made in this usermanagement-file be overwritten when we upgrade the solution?
