Im using the Weblinks module and am trying to edit the header html file. Yet when I reupload it none of the changes take effect. Do I have to enable something first?

I was finally able to edit the header html file by using the Templates option under misc tools, but Im trying to update another template and its not updating. I've edited it about 10 times and its just not working

this has to be some sort of bug, cause I can't update any of my html templates in any of the modules I have installed through the Templates/Mics Tool option. I tried even going back to the 1 template I was able to update and I can no longer update that either.

I don't understand how replacing the phsical html file via ftp does not update the file. Im extremely frustruated right now

I tried deleting my browsers cache also just in case but that didn't help

Templates are stored in the database. This is why you need to update the module after ftp'ing a changed template - this updates the database version.

If you have cloned the template set then you should only need to upload the changed file through the template manager, or edit it directly within the template manager... is that what is not working for you?

An extra pointer:
Make sure that admin->preferences 'update html templates...' is set to yes. This will update cached templates, if the template has changed.

Yes the template manager is not working. I have uploaded via ftp the new html templates I want, then I go to the template manager and edit the html templates with the changes I want but nothing is updated.

The page just refreshes and I get a blank popup window. Heres what my Edit template file window, the only option I have is view, so thats what I've been hitting.

and yes I have "Update module template .html files from themes/your theme/templates directory?
" set to yes.

That's the default template set, it is not editable.

Did you try updating the module itself as I suggested earlier...? there's no need to go through the template manager if you just ftp the changed template then update the module.
