Brief

If you would like to test out a site design (css + images + files) package without installing it on your own eZ publish installation you can do so very simply. Use the ez.no demo site

Steps

  1. Login to the Admin interface (Log in with username: admin and password: publish)
  2. Go to the Package Admin, Import the package (requires you to first download the package to your local machine to upload it to the demo site, example packages available from ez.no)
  3. Go to the Design Admin, select “Look and Feel“, select the newly available design, save your changes.
  4. Go to the Cache Admin, Clear All Cache
  5. Load / refresh the user demo site in your browser: http://devel.ezpublish.no/

Voila!
