One brilliant feature of a Quickr is the PlaceType. Here's how to make a Quickr PlaceType and how to refresh your places.




Make your Place, complete with added folders forms and pages, available as a PlaceType in the Place's Customization->PlaceType Options area.

Then a Quickr Site admin can make the PlaceType live by using the "Work With Templates" menu from the main site page.

A new Place can be created using the PlaceType.

To update the Placetype from the original Place, edit the PlaceType, then save. This takes a minute to do, so wait before continuing.

Places built from the PlaceType will update at 4am in the morning as a rule, but to update now, ie if you are developing, put a command:  

load qptool refresh -p AdFos

where adfos is the directory of the place.

 

You can switch of refreshes as well if you wish by going into your place's Customization -> Basics menu and unticking:

Receive Updates under the Updates heading.
