            Reporter: Sina K. Heshmati
            Priority: Minor

It's useful to have reusable panels for each theme [1]. I'm sending the html-pelt theme that's been chunked into different templates.

----------------------------------------

Hmm, I do not understand: "Please do NOT add these patches as it will affect other Forrest instances using the Dispatcher. " Sure it will effect other - more all other - instance of the dispatcher. 

I reviewed the patch and applied it slightly changed. Thanks for your contribution Sina.

To 1) 
we use the fallback mechanism meaning if a plugin does not use its own structurer we use the one from core. 
The special case here is that pelt-html.panel.xml is already a panel and applying your patch as it is will affect all themes that are importing the panel. 
I slightly changed the patch so that the structurer directly is using the new chunks.

To 2) No, since the pelt theme will provide always a basic css structure. Now one has to override the different chunks.

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOR-1059?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#action_12552795 ] 

Sina K. Heshmati commented on FOR-1059:
---------------------------------------

Please do NOT add these patches as it will affect other Forrest instances using the Dispatcher.

The following is a sample 'pelt-html.panel.xml:'

<forrest:template ...
  <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.head"/>
  <forrest:hook name="container">
    <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.header"/>
    <forrest:hook name="page">
      <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.leftbar"/>
      <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.content"/>
    </forrest:hook>
    <jx:import uri="cocoon://prepare.panels.pelt-html.footer"/>
  </forrest:hook>
</forrest:template>

Some Questions
-----------------------
(1) Let's say that a given project does not want to change the views at all, that is no project-specific panels. How can make sure that the one included in the core.themes plugin is used? This way, every instance using the Dispatcher won't be affected.

(2) Should I remove the forrest:hooks from the pelt-html.panel.xml? So as to make it easier ti add project-specific contracts to the existing views.
