get brewster mode to work

[webchick]

Sample template set should be revised to work in new site framework if we are going to continue using it in the guided tour.

Files affected:
http://demo.openlibrary.org/templates/brewster
http://demo.openlibrary.org/type/brewster/author/edit.tmpl
http://demo.openlibrary.org/type/brewster/author/view.tmpl
http://demo.openlibrary.org/type/brewster/edition/edit.tmpl
http://demo.openlibrary.org/type/brewster/edition/view.tmpl
http://demo.openlibrary.org/type/brewster/home/view.tmpl

There may be additional programming dependencies related to this bug since the files are in two separate directories. As it stands now, changing the template root in preferences (http://demo.openlibrary.org/preferences) to 'templates/brewster' does not work.

Template root will be user/<username> when templates are stored at
user/<username>/templates/*.tmpl and user/<username>/type/<typename>/
*.tmpl.

Ack - I even made that change to the wikilanguage documentation. I will move the templates to the proper directory. Thanks!

There seems to be a permissions issue with creating templates in the user directories. I cannot create new templates in any user directory including my own.

This is mostly fixed - I am having some problems with the doc template, especially with the css.

seems totally broken again

[Edward Betts (edwardbetts)]

Is this still a priority? Is there user demand for this feature?

[Aaron Swartz (aaronsw)]

pdregistry has mostly obviated this.

Closing this. Or, marking as invalid at least.
