Hi,

I would like to rename the ja_rasite template itself something like : “default_grey”

What i did :

-> Renamed folder ja_rasite
-> renamed JA_RASITE in templateDetails.xml file

what i get after changing?:

JFolder::files: Path is not a folder

Now, can anyone tell me whats the exact procedure to change the template name?

Thanks for your help

Rgds,
Kino

It is not as simple as just renaming the folder. The path is used throughout the code of the template. Also the name i think is used as well.

It would be very difficult i believe to rename a template

May be complex.. But this should be always possible to do it..

Hello guy!

I think that you should rename from ja_rasite to “default_grey” before install this template. because when you installed, Joomla Sys create a new record to allow you manage it in the templates manager.

The appropriate place to switch the name from JA_Rasite is within the template details XML file.

<?xml version=”1.0″ encoding=”utf-8″?>
<install version=”1.5″ type=”template”>
<name>JA_Rasite</name>
<version>1.0</version>
<creationDate>01/26/2010</creationDate>
<author>JoomlArt.com</author>
<authorEmail>webmaster@joomlart.com</authorEmail>
<authorUrl>http://www.joomlart.com</authorUrl&gt;
<copyright>J.O.O.M. Solutions Ltd.</copyright>
<license>JA Commercial</license>
<description>JA Rasite DESC</description>

The name is controlled by the <name> tag on line 3. I’d probably change what falls between the <description> tag as well- which is found on line 11- to eliminate confusion. As far as I can tell, nothing more needs be done to change the name of the template.

I hope this was helpful. I watched the Lynda.com video entitled “Creating and Editing your own joomla1.5 templates” and that was the information they gave to name a template.

I believe you would then have to re-zip the entire template and install it to get it working as you would like.

Strange there are no incidences of the word ja rasite in my (Ja Rasite) params.ini file to change?

Cheers Shannon
