As I fight with template, I have questions/remarks :

- I create a publication "mypub" (by default template is inherited from
"default pub")

- But I want that mypub have a special design very different from the
default one.

- So after have a look at the pubs/mypub/publication.xml I see the tag
<template id="default"/>. So ok, I write<template id="mypub"/>  and let's
go... but after a restart, bug caused by infinite loop appear... not the
solution !

yes, the publication can't use itself as a template. The template is the "parent" of the publication, it inherits all resources from the template. See

http://lenya.apache.org/docu20/reference/publications/publication-templating.html


- After that, go to default publication.xml, and see that the tag<template
id=""/>  was commented, so my deduction was : "If template tag commented,
the pub use his own template", but when I do that (comment template tag in
mypub publication.xml) I have a strange error [1] witch speak about a
"menus.xmap resource not found" ( menus.xmap is mark as deprecated in the
default publication sitemap)...

You have two options:

A) Use a template. Then your publication inherits everything (well, all resources that are referenced using the fallback protocol) from this template publication.

B) Don't use a template. Then your publication has to contain all necessary resources.


In most situations I'd recommend starting with option A and adding only the resources which are meant to replace template resources to your publication. So if you want a completely different layout but keep other features like workflow, just add the XSLT and CSS files to your publication.

HTH,
