how to change the design path

[moabdul]

Hi Everyone,

While i am working on the components which has design dialog, my design path is getting saved in the /etc/designs/default. What are all the steps do we need to follow to set the design path to that particular project under designs?

Thanks in Advance!

You can go to Tools i.e localhost:4502/miscadmin

Create a new Design--> Click on Design --> Either create a new folder or create a New page directly under design

Enter design name(generally your project name) and select design template and click on save.

Now go to Page on which you have create design dialog. Right click Page Properties > Advanced > Design and apply your design.

Its done now when you save content to design dialog it will be save in project specific path i.e /etc/designs/<page name> instead of /etc/designs/default.

Let me know if you face any issue. I will add this to my tutorial also http://www.aemcq5tutorials.com/tutorials/create-design-dialog-in-aem/

Hi 

Please have a look at this community article:- http://cq5tutorials.blogspot.in/2014/05/creating-component-with-design-dialog.html

// Creating a component with design dialog

You can assign a design to your site from page properties. If this is not set, the values are stored under the default design [Page Properties > Advanced > Design]

As of 6.4, the new path is /apps/settings/wcm/designs  or /libs/settings/wcm/designs
