[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Create directories for branding resources?

Fri Jun 10 10:23:42 EDT 2022

Dear James,

Yes, this is very helpful!  Thank you for taking the time to reply to my question.

I’ve now got my branding changes in place under the /local plugin directory.

How do I go about including our Google Tag Manager tracking snippet?  I need to insert code in the <head> of each page, and also right after the opening <body> tag.  Should that also be done via the /local plugin files?  If so, which file(s)?  I couldn’t find documentation on this.

Hi Kyle,

Those directions are written assuming you’re working on a development instance. When you’re running from a distribution the file paths referred to are contained in war files, so you don’t see them.

You do not need to create public/app/views/shared/_header.html.erb - that exists within wars/public.war

To override that file you would place your new version in plugins/yourplugin/public/views/shared/_header.html.erb

Hope that helps.

Cheers,
James

While the directions clearly state that some/all of the directories in the path to store a branding image will need to be created, I was not expecting to need to create the public/app/views/shared/_header.html.erb file, or those directories, yet they do not seem to exist in my installation (below). Should I proceed to create these directories, along with the _header.html.erb file?
