I'm working in Business Catalyst on a website that I created a while back. A default template has been set for the entire website (this will apply to 404 pages, etc).
Recently I've created a new directory within the website that will be related to the main site, but the layout is completely different.
At first this didn't concern me, it's easy enough to just set the template as being my new template for each of the pages in the new website section. However, when I put some of the pages into a secure zone, the login page that you're redirected to uses the default template of the main website.
Can I apply a Business Catalyst template to the entire directory so that when I visit say:
http://mydomain.com/new/this_doesnt_exist.html
The template for my new layout will be applied?
You can't apply a default template to all pages within a directory, you'll just need to go in to the pages inside that directory and set the template for them. Unless you have a heap of pages, not sure this is a big issue though.
Perhaps post a URL of what you're trying to achieve and I can understand better.
Also, have you checked out the official BC forums - lots of people to help out over there too! :)
