It's been a while since I've done this and I've forgotten how. The only info i could find on this site about it is back from 2004 and out of date.

Hook template_groups:

Block Disabled:      (Update License Status)
Suspended or Unlicensed Members Cannot View Code.

Where "mytemplates" in the prefix and "My Templates" is the name of the group.

I've tried this in 3.7, the plugin is active (cut and pasted your code).... but nothing shows up. Does this work in 3.7?

I just used it no problems

[Lynne]

Exactly what did you put in your plugin, Scuzzy?

[Scuzzy]

What am I doing wrong?

I've also tried...

$only['scuztools'] = 'ScuzTools Templates';

...as "scuztools" is the name of my product, but no luck there either...

[SEOvB]

do you have any scuztools_templates

[Dismounted]

You need to actually create the templates with the prefix for the group to show up.

[Opserty]

Templates will also need the appropriate prefix. E.g.:

mytemplates_sometemplate
mytemplates_someothertemplate
mytemplates_bla

Or

scuztools_sometemplatename
scuztools_atemplate
e.t.c.

[Scuzzy]

Thanks, that worked. That's what I get for checking things every step of the way.

For some reason I can't use a prefix that contains an underscore.

$only['prefix'] works
$only['prefix_product'] does not work

any ideas?

[Dismounted]

What happens in that case? Any reason why you need the underscore anyway?

When using an underscore the category is not created, even after creating templates with that particular prefix. I can only create a category when not using an underscore.

I have multiple custom products and wanted to use an underscore for organization. For example, vba uses vba_links and vba_portal.

I have a feeling you are doing this wrong. If you have:

$only['yourname'] = 'Added by YourName';

Then, the templates you would add to go into that group would be named "yourname_template1" and "yourname_template2" or "yourname_this_that"

I understand this completely.

I am unable to do the following:
$only['yourname_product'] = 'Product';
yourname_product_itembit
yourname_product_whatever

I am unable to create a template prefix group that contains an underscore
