I made a customized template called node-mynode.tpl.php Whenever a node of type mynode is requested, then node-mynode.tpl.php is automatically used.
However, now user wants to see a specific menu block in this case.
Question: How can I assign a block to a specific content type?
Hint: I have started to look at URL aliases with Pathauto. I suspect one solution may lie in this direction.
Give all of your mynode
type nodes an automatic alias that starts with /mynode
and use the page specific visibility settings for the block, showing only on the pages that start with /mynode/*
.
