Children Inherit Template other than Parent

[list]Have been looking at this post: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,59915.0.html

I am following the steps below, but when I create a new resource under ID9 am still inheriting the parent template.
[list]

• Form Customizations->Created a new profile
• Edit Profile
• Create New Set
  [list][li]Action->Create Resource
• Template->The TemplateID I want inherited
• Constraint Field->parent
• Constraint->Resource ID of the parent
• Active->checked

[/li][/list]

Is this still the appropriate method for having children inherit a different template than the parent?

That looks right to me. You might have to clear the cache and flush permissions and sessions before it will take effect.

Hmmm, I have flushed the server cache, flushed permissions, flushed all sessions, and cleared my browser cache and am still getting the same results. When I attempt to create a child document under ID9 I am still inheriting the template of the ID9 document rather than the one specified in my Active Form Customization/Profile/Set. Any other suggestions? This is 2.1.1-pl btw.

Do you have any plugins running that might affect the template on save?

Am running plugins - listening to:

• modMobile - OnLoadWebDocument, OnLoadWebPageCache
• ColorPicker - OnDocFormPrerender, OnTVInputRenderList
• SimpleSearchIndexer - OnDocFormSave, OnDocPublished, OnDocUnpublished, OnResourceDelete, OnResourceDuplicate, OnResourceUndelete
• TinyMCE - OnRichTextBrowserInit, OnRichTextEditorInit,OnRichTextEditorRegister

Try to disable all and see if it works. If yes, reenable one plugin by another to find the one that caused problems.

If no then no plugin causes that problem.

(and remember to clear modxs cache before and after every each step, you never know...)

Just a note… i see you’ve defined a template (County Template). But Upon resource creation, your resource might not use this template (according to what you set as default template in your system settings). That might be a part of the issue…

Okay, that sounds reasonable but how then do you have a child document inherit a template other than the parent?

You have to search in the grid for the template field (modx-resource-settings) & set its default value to the template ID you’d like to use.

I think I’d do it with a plugin tied to OnDocFormSave. Something like this:
