I'm modifying the Editable plugin, so if the content file that it tries to open doesn't exist, it will create it instead of giving an error. I do it like this (this code is inside Editable.php component)

I made this function for creating the new content file:

private function createContent($file, $content = NULL) {
    $object = Content::inTheme($this->page->controller->getTheme());
    if (empty($content)) $content = pathinfo($file, PATHINFO_FILENAME);
    $objectData = [
        'fileName' => $file,
        'markup' => $content
    ];
    $object->fill($objectData);
    $object->save();

    $this->fireEvent('object.save', [$object, 'content']);

    return $content;
}

And then I check if the file exists, and if not, I call the function like this:

    if ((Content::loadCached($this->page->controller->getTheme(), $this->file)) === null) {
        if (!$this->isEditor)
            return '';
       $this->createContent($this->file);
    }

But then if I try to render my just created file:

    $content = $this->renderContent($this->file);

I get this Exception:

An exception has been thrown during the rendering of a template ("The content file 'projects/share.htm' is not found.").

The file is created ok, if I reload the page it works. The exception only happens when I try to open the file just after creating it. What am I missing here?

(I got the code for creating new cms files from the Pages plugin)

Did you ever figure this out?

No, never, I just lived with it. The files are created so I just hit F5 if I get the error. And now I changed the plugin so it uses the database (translate messages) instead of content files so I don't have this problem anymore. Mistery forever.
