Using Zope with Flux
Zope is a free and open-source, object-oriented web application server written in the Python programming language.
Editing a Zope template using Flux
Zope HTML templates are held in the Zope database, so first, we need to extract the HTML to a file.
Note
Flux can only work with Zope Page Templates, not DTML files.
Step 1
First, login to the Zope management system, and find the file you want to edit. In the picture below, we are editing one of the standard examples.
Step 2
Copy and paste the HTML code into a text editor, and save the file into a brand new folder.
Step 3
Now, drag the new folder (not the file) to Flux to open it as a website.
You can now edit this web page like any other page in Flux.
Flux has built-in support for Zope attributes to make editing the page even easier.
Step 4
Once you have finished editing your file, we need to import it back into Zope. The easiest way to do this is to open the Flux Code Editor (Command-3), make sure you are viewing the whole file by pressing the HTML tag.
Copy the HTML from the Flux Code Editor, paste back into the Zope Management System and press 'Save Changes'
Done!
Now, when you visit your Zope based site, the changes should have taken effect.
