Oxygen XML Forum

Hello,
I am new to oxygen and DITA, and after creating my first few topics, keys, a map and a key definition map, I just tried to create my first Webhelp via Template. It works to the extent that I see the main webhelp page, but unfortunately the menu buttons are not clickable.
But: when I try and use the search function, I actually do manage to get to the tasks, but they are displayed on a plain page without the template layout.

What is wrong?

Thank you so much.

I just wanted to add the following:

- After the transformation, all topics receive the warning "DOTJ036W"
- I checked and validated the Dita-Map and my Key Defintions Map
- My folder structure is fine (Project folder with sub-folders for Maps, Media, Topics etc.)
- All included topics (literally only 2 concepts, 3 tasks) are valid
- Key Definitions Map is included in main map with "mapref"

All ideas welcome

Hi,
Maybe this article from the Oxygen User's Manual will help:

Thank you Radu. In the meantime, I tried to put all topics into the same folder (no sub-folders) as the map, and this is actually working. However, I will keep your solution in mind as the project grows bigger. It's not very convenient to not be able to work with a proper folder structure.

Hi,
There should be no problem placing your topics in subfolders, your images in subfolders, it's just that the main published DITA Map needs to be in a higher folder structure hierarchy than the topics.
So for example this would be a potential publishing problem:

maps/published.ditamap
topics/topic1.dita
topics/topic2.dita

Hi Radu,
Thank you so much - I got it now and it makes perfect sense! It's working with a nicely structured folder hierarchy.
Have a nice day...
