For the life of me i cant get this to work.. what im wanting to do is attach a page link to a "Read More" anchor. The simpletreedropdown shows in DOM Just fine, but i just cant get the link to show from the database. The PageLinkID is in the database and also the ID of the page that i want to link to gets populated into the PageLinkID column
This is what i have in my class file:
<?php
class ImageResource extends DataObject
{
static $db = array (
'Title' => 'Text',
'Caption' => 'Text'
);
static $has_one = array (
'HomePage' => 'HomePage',
'Attachment' => 'Image', //Needs to be an image
'PageLink' => 'SiteTree'
);
public function getCMSFields_forPopup()
{
return new FieldSet(
new TextField('Title'),
new TextareaField('Caption'),
new FileIFrameField('Attachment'),
new SimpleTreeDropdownField( 'PageLinkID', 'Link To Page', 'SiteTree' )
);
}
}
Heres HomePage.php
<?php
/**
* Defining the HomePage page type
*/
class HomePage extends Page {
static $db = array(
'effect' => "Enum('sliceDown,sliceDownLeft,sliceUp,sliceUpLeft,sliceUpDown,sliceUpDownLeft,fold,fade,random','random')",
'slices' => 'Int(15)',
'animSpeed' => 'Int(500)',

'directionNavHide' => "Boolean",
'controlNav' => "Boolean",
'controlNavThumbs' => "Boolean",
'keyboardNav' => "Boolean",
'pauseOnHover' => "Boolean",

'captionOpacity' => 'Decimal(2,1,0.8)'
);
static $has_one = array(
);
static $has_many = array (
'Images' => 'ImageResource',
'Panels' => 'NivoSliderPanel',
);
// static $allowed_children = array('MainBannersResource');
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$manager = new ImageDataObjectManager(
$this, // Controller
'Images', // Source name
'ImageResource', // Source class
'Attachment', // File name on DataObject
array(
'Title' => 'Title',
'Caption' => 'Caption',
), // Headings
'getCMSFields_forPopup' // Detail fields

// Sort clause
// Join clause
);
$manager->setRelationAutoSetting(false);
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Main",$manager);
if (class_exists('DataObjectManager'))$a='DataObjectManager'; else $a='ComplexTableField';
$fields->addFieldToTab("Root.Content.Panels", new $a($this,'Panels','NivoSliderPanel',array('Thumbnail' => _t('Image.PLURALNAME'),'Title' => _t('SiteTree.METATITLE'),'Tagline' => _t('SiteTree.METADESC')), 'getCMSFields_forPopup'));

/**
public function forTemplate(){

**/
}
Finally heres the line in HomePage.ss that calls the link:
<p>$Caption.LimitCharacters(175)<span><a href="$PageLinkID.LINK">Read More</a></span></p>
The line calling the link should have read:
<p>$Caption.LimitCharacters(175)<span><a href="$PageLink.LINK">Read More</a></span></p>
