Creating the Site Javascript Template
Question
How do I create the new "Site Javascript" template after upgrading to version 3.2?
Answer
There are two basic ways to create this template.
You can go to System Overview > Weblogs, choose your weblog, and then select Refresh Template(s). This this will revert all relevant templates in the weblog to the defaults, and also create a Site JavaScript template in that weblog for you.
OR
You can take the following steps to create only this template with the correct default code:
1. In your weblog, on the Templates > Indexes tab, select Create New Index Template.
2. Specify Site JavaScript1 as the Template Name, and mt-site.js as the Output File.
3. Make sure that "Rebuild this template automatically when rebuilding index templates" is checked, and then click SAVE.
4. Click Templates in either the left sidebar or the breadcrumbs menu to return to the Templates listing.
5. Select the new Site JavaScript template you just created.
6. Select Refresh Template(s) from the More Actions dropdown menu, and click GO.
This will create a new Site JavaScript template with the default code, as well as a "backup" template which can just be deleted (since it will be empty).
After creating this new template, you'll need to rebuild it to generate the mt-site.js file in your blog path.
1 Make sure you spell and capitalize the name exactly as shown (i.e., JavaScript, not Javascript).
