It turns out the view class for plone.app.form's '@@register' form isn't
overridden. I have this in my browser/configure.zcml:
<browser:page
name="register"
for="Products.CMFPlone.Portal.PloneSite"
class=".register.InviteRegistrationForm"
permission="zope.Public"
layer="..interfaces.IPloneInvitePolicy"
/>
When i change name="register" to name="xregister" in browser/configure.zcml,
the code _is_ run.
How can i override the "register" view class? I googled around for it, but
found nothing that works. One of the things i tried was registering
"@@register" in an "overrides.zcml" file. The code is picked up Zope won't
start if i put a syntax error in it), but that's all.
