[Cartoweb-users] Plugin development issue: to which path dothetemplate (*.tpl) file points?

[Oliver Christen]

to access the php file, you need to put it into your project's htdocs folder 
(/cartoweb3/projects/yourproject/htdocs/) and run the cw3setup --install 
command once more (this create a symbolic link in /cartoweb3/htdocs/ 
pointing on your file in your project folder)
/cartoweb3/htdocs/ is the only place that has direct public access
you certainly could put your file directly there, but then you wouldnt have 
all your project files at the same place

Oliver
