Re: [Slashcode-general] Beginner Template Confusion

[Shane <sh...@lo...>]

Are you restarting apache after you change your templates?

You need to do so - ie apachectl stop && sleep 10 && apachectl start

The templates are cached, just like much of everything with Slash.

You can turn off caching for a site using this:
