Question about templates, styleblocks and

[Alejandro Hirmas]

I am trying to generate a template for a type of page. Now, within that page I added a app_styles and  app_scripts blocks. Now, if the page that extends this template also haves a such blocks, the one from the template dissappears. How should I do it such that this does not happen?

Thanks in advance!

There are 3 levels of blocks:

global_scripts

app_scripts

scripts

Any scripts that are specific to the template should go in the “scripts” block. That way they will not overwrite the app_scripts.

Same for styles.

Another approach rather than using blocks is to put the global scripts in an includable template or static file, then include it explicitly in every page that needs it. It’s a bit more repetitive but easier to understand.
