[Typo3-dev] Alternative templates - general record storage page PROBELM

[matthi]

Hello,

hopefuly this belongs to the devslist and not to the general english one..

I have just noticed, as I had the need for an altrnative template using 
TV for some of my pages, that in the case a page has a "general storage 
page folder" assigned to it in the page header you dont get the "Page 
Template Structure:" and "Subpages - Page Template Structure:" fields in 
the BE filled with the "normaly" available templates as they stay empty 
as long as this "storage folder" is choosen...

There are several plugins out there, as in my case, the sr_feuser.. that 
requires a general storage folder page setup to work correctly and lucky 
you, if this pages and their subpages share the same template as the 
rootpage...

Well, actually there is the possibility to kick the storage folder out 
of the page header, to select THEN an alternative template followed by a 
  reselcetion of the earlier kicked storagefolder and the FE comes in 
the desired fashion, even if you get an ugly message in the BE 
complaining about this "dirty hack"...

Is there something I have overseen ?

I don´t think we can call that a "bug" as it works like "wanted", cause 
it looks like TV looks in the storagefolder of a given page, and if 
there is nothing it can work with....i just wonder if noone else had a 
need for that before, but I can´t find anything about this

Best regards
