Force Custom pop-up generation

[bangers]

Ok Guys I'm at a lose here,
I am trying to create some custom pop-ups that contain page elements like sectoin lists and footers so they can be used as ssi's (PHP Includes) on non actinic generated pages.

I have created a new laout type, made sure layouts are set to popups then added a number of selectors and layouts underneath this that pull in the required elements.

all the layouts have custom page names like ssi_sectionlists.txt etc. And all simply pull in info using other actinic layout selectors being in the body of the layout like: <actinic:variable name="TopLevelSectionList" />

all the selectors are 1 option selectors (not that I think I need to do this as I could have used fixed layouts I think).

Then within my search results template I have added the selectors for each page i want to generate. Though i did add it to the members login page with the same result.

Can anyone think why they are not generating?

Help as ever greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Have a look at the live search results page to see if they're being generated inline instead of to a file.

Cheers Norman,
But that's not happening either.

I have noticed a wierd think mind you. i don't think is should be the case so i think it might point to some sort of solution.

The layout selectors don't even appear in the design tree. I am able to select them no problem but for them not to appear there I assume something is going wrong.

I has also just started afresh completely to see if that might sort it out, effectively creating each layout and selector again under another layout type with popup set, same problem and not showing on the design tree in any form.

More head scratching me thinks

Same here. And the Advanced Guide article that also does this - "Only Generating Best Seller and New Products Lists Once per Upload" (page 61 ish) doesn't seem to work either. Using 9.0.5.

Yep, I'm on 9.0.5.
Great, another bug! Thanks for looking Norman.

Anyone else come across this problem? Anoyone else have a fix?

Hi

I can replicate this on a default site as well, so I'm forwarding it to development, will touch base when I hear back from them.
