Hi Greg
Thanks for this. However when I look at
CATALINA_HOME\webapps\roller\themes\fauxcoly\theme.xml I do not find the
template for Front Page or Weblog (which are the ones I want to rename to
say "Welcome" in the menu)
I do find the Archives template which appears in the menu
<template action="custom">
<name>Archives</name>
<description>Calendar browser and links to latest
entries</description>
<link>archives</link>
<navbar>true</navbar>
<hidden>false</hidden>
<templateLanguage>velocity</templateLanguage>
<contentType>text/html</contentType>
<contentsFile>archives.vm</contentsFile>
</template>
which has <navbar>true</navbar> which references the archives.vm as the
content and creates the page archives and provides the menu item Archives
(and I have been able to create and add my own templates and can change the
name from Archive to say Fred and get its displayed in the menu).
I have looked at the weblog.vm, but there is no reference to the menu item
names Front Page or Weblog. How do I get control these menu item names so I
can change them?
Cheers
Peter
