load custom template for form and details view in list menu item problem

[mahmoodee]

Hello,
create two menu items for the same list will allow to change the list templates but they will both still point to the same default form templates.
I need to use different form template for each list menu item
I read this old text for Troester
"setting template in listmenu item will override the form template settings (form + details view set to mint): if you select bluesky list template fabrik will also use bluesky form template (if the name of the list template doesn't exist as form template default is used)."

so, I try this and create list template called "test" and form template called "test" an details view template called "test" . Now the list load list "test" template but not load form "test" template and details view "test" template , it load the default template for form and detail view .
Is this a bug ? How I can solve this problem?
thank you

This was an old Fabrik version and I think it was a bug.
List and form and details templates are totally different, not linked via name.

Now if I create list menu item and select custom template it work for list but it call the the default form and details view template , I need to call a custom templatefor form and detail
Is there any way ?

Up till now, no, there wasn't a way of specifying a custom form / details template to use with a list menu item. However, that seems like a useful thing to be able to do, so I added it:

https://github.com/Fabrik/fabrik/commit/9b5d5b65447a0c5fa2f0baf047eaed26063addf7

NOTE that the restriction on this is that you'll have to have a custom form and a details template of the same name. I can't provide both settings, as they share the same param name ('fabriktemplate') in the code.

You'll need to do a full github update.

This is an excellent addition to Fabrik, it will save a lot of time, I was copying
list multiple times each time I want to use a custom template for form and details .
And it would be more wonderful if added to the module and content plugin .
I will update and try the new addition .
thank you

I think you could probably do it now with the content plugin, by specifying both layout and fabriklayout ...

{fabrik view=list listid=123 layout=your-custom-list-layout fabriklayout=your-custom-form-layout}

I haven't tested that, but I'm about 88.376% sure it'll work.

If you'd like to take out a Standard support sub for a month or two, I'd be happy to add it to the module.
