#3 unable to customize pages

My in-house server works fine but I am unable to customize the pages. As per official instructions, I should simply adapt the content of config/gogs/template and these changes will overwrite those present on the server. Changing these pages, however, has no effect, even after a restart of the container. I am using the default paths and didn't change much in the docker-compose.yml file (in particular config/gogs is mapped container-side to /custom). Any guess?

Ensure that the ownership of all files and folders is set to the chosen deployment user and deployment group and all files are set to -rw-rw-r-- permissions. Further the web service requires a restart for updated templates to take effect.

I fixed permissions using

chmod -R g+rw $DIR_GINROOT

I also updated ownership, just in case:

chown -R ginuser:ginservice $DIR_GINROOT

Running ls -lrt in config/gogs/templates now returns

drwxrwxr-x 2 ginuser ginservice 4096 Okt 17 14:49 repo
-rw-rw-r-- 1 ginuser ginservice 2234 Okt 17 14:49 home.tmpl
drwxrwxr-x 2 ginuser ginservice 4096 Okt 17 14:49 explore
drwxrwxr-x 2 ginuser ginservice 4096 Okt 17 16:04 base

FYI it is the file config/gogs/templates/base/footer_gin_brand.tmpl that I have slightly changed.

To restart both apache and docker, I run (when inside the docker-compose folder):

systemctl stop apache2.service && docker compose down && docker compose up -d && systemctl start apache2.service

Then I navigate back to my welcome page and hit refresh, but still no changes.

PS: I also re-pulled just in case, but no luck either.

Sorry to hear this did not solve the issue. If you want to, you can either post here or send your docker-compose file and the gogs app.ini to gin@g-node.org and we can check if we spot any differing settings that could be responsible for this behavior.
