Martimiz,

Thanks for your patience on this one. That is very helpful.

I don't have time to log in now but I will check. I don't believe I saw a directory called /mysite as that would have been obvious to me from what I'd been reading. That's why I figured /mysite was a placeholder for whatever the site name or directory name was. I will look again this weekend and let you know.

Kindly,
Matthew

Iterate through $has_many items

MartinPhone — Sun, 12 Feb 2012 03:54:41 +1300

Just wanted to confirm,

There isn't (currently?) a way to access every item of a 'normal' SS data type (image, text, etc) I've got in a $has_many in my page? Like I would with a <% control %>?

(I have a bunch of images I want to access but don't really feel like I should have to create a new object just to fill it with a single piece of data...)

I've seen this http://www.silverstripe.org/archive/show/408 but it is quite old, might not be exactly the same as what I want and maybe something's changed!

Just want to find the simplest solution to what I think must be a simple problem!

Re: Changed mysql root password, now website won't load

martimiz — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 23:40:43 +1300

Right... but, I did say /mysite/_config.php not /cms/_config.php

In SilverStripe every module has its own _config.php, used for settings relating to that particular module. Basic modules are: sapphire (the framework) and cms (the backend) You'll probably never have to change any settings in their (core) config files

mysite is the module that manage your specific website. In the mysite/_config.php file you'll find basic things like the database settings, the default language and the basic theme. Look for something like:

global $databaseConfig;
$databaseConfig = array(
   "type" => "MySQLDatabase",
   "server" => "localhost", // or your mysql server address
   "username" => "xxxxx",
   "password" => "xxxxxx",
   "database" => "xxxxxx",
);

If you want to get any deeper into SilverStripe, I strongly advise you to check out the tutorials http://doc.silverstripe.org/sapphire/en/tutorials/

Thanks, martimiz, but there is nothing in that /cms/_config.php. Perhaps it would help to know what a typical _config.php file should look like and what wording I should be looking for in it to change the password.

Any help is appreciated.

Re: TinyMCE - Add a class to a link

martimiz — Sat, 11 Feb 2012 05:38:01 +1300

Hi Steve,

No, there is no pathway option like you mention. Afaik you can still select the link and drop a class from the styles dropdown. If the link-panel to the right is open, SilverStripe will automatically select the link if you touch it...

You're right: implemening a new version of TinyMCE would be especially tough, as SilverStripes image and link handling needs to hook into it...

If you set uo Student to have

You could do something like

DataObject::get('Student', 'ClassroomID' = '0' or is null 'ClassroomID');

Lots of modules are, like SilverStripe. Itself, now continued at github (www.github.com) and have their documentation there as well. In time it'll find its way into the new docs I suppose, but for now look for the silverstripe-multiform on github and checkout the README.md: https://github.com/silverstripe/silverstripe-multiform/blob/master/README.md

TinyMCE - Add a class to a link

steveforest — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 11:14:15 +1300

Hi,

How can I add a class on a link <a> with TinyMCE. The old version of TinyMCE on SilverStripe seems to have only a few options... I don't see any code pathway (like in Joomla, see attached file), to select the a and add the class with the 'Styles' drop down menu.

If I click on Edit link, there's no box to enter a class.

This will be a big problem because the person who will edit the site don't know anything about HTML, so it won't be possible for him/her to add it manually...

The community seems to agree on that fact that TinyMCE is hard to upgrade on a 2.4 install... I guess people are waiting for SS3!

An answer would be very welcome ;)

Best regards,

Steve

Why does not work the class Email in a WAMP server?

Josua — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 09:31:05 +1300

Hi!

The mail function works perfectly on the WAMP server, but the Email class does not send the message.

What is happening?
Do I have to setup something more in the Email class?

The same code, in a server remote works perfectly.

Regards,

      if(!empty($this->Mailto)){
         $email = $this->Mailto;
      } else {
         $email = EMAIL;
      }

$headers = 'MIME-Version: 1.0'. "\r\n";

Re: Newsletter subscription error on existing user email

Pipifix — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 06:38:34 +1300

Thanks Devlin.

The double user issue was clear. See the thread headline ;) The second things was too obviously. ^^
You're right. This condition is always true. My problem is i'm a php-noob. I need a lot more programming exercise to write creative and useful code. The most of the code provided here, im able to read and understand. Thats why i ask for a little coding help.

I found this snippet of code http://www.silverstripe.org/all-other-modules/show/15228?start=8#post311707 and tried to adapt it. This checkt the user and sanitize the mailadress. But this piece dont write in the usergroup and the redirection is something weird. (404) I like the idea to set the NewsletterSubscriber as a 'quiet' user and redirect them to a sucess-page or a failure-page. No login should be seen.

Thanks again. Pipifix.

Re: Newsletter subscription error on existing user email

Devlin — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 05:09:36 +1300

What to edit on this code to catch this error?

You will need to validate the mailadress yourself. Silverstripe will just throw the error, because double user identifier is a bad thing.

Why does the Director::redirect('newsletter-registristrierungs-fehler/'); not work?

Because you check in your if clause if a group with the ID 3 exists. Which of course is always the case since you created it.

Newsletter subscription error on existing user email

Pipifix — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 04:31:12 +1300

Hi everybody.

On bugfixin our latest project we discovered a strange newsletter subscription error. On the homepage there is a form saving all subscribers as a new member in the db. if a mailadress is already saved – no matter whether teh user is an admin or in another usergroup – a exception is thrwon.

throw new ValidationException(new ValidationResult(false, sprintf(
629                _t(
630                   'Member.ValidationIdentifierFailed',
631                   'Can\'t overwrite existing member #%d with identical identifier (%s = %s))',
632                   PR_MEDIUM,
633                   'The values in brackets show a fieldname mapped to a value, usually denoting an existing email address'
634                ),

The code on Homepage.php

// Make sure you set this to the right group.
// See http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?do=show&id=recipes%3Aforms
private $defaultGroupID = 3;

   /**
   * This function lets you put a form on your page, using $Form.
   */
    function NewsletterForm() {
      return new Form($this, "NewsletterForm", new FieldSet(

         // List your fields here
         new TextField("Surname", "Name"),
         new EmailField("Email", "E-Mail")

), new FieldSet(

// List the action buttons here
new FormAction("SignupAction", "Eintragen")

      ), new RequiredFields(
         'Email',
         'Surname'
      ));
   }

   /**
   * This function is called when the user submits the form.
   */
   function SignupAction($data, $form) {

      // Create a new Member object and load the form data into it
      $member = new Member();
      $form->saveInto($member);

// Write it to the database. This needs to happen before we add it to a group
$member->write();

// Add the member to group. (Check if it exists first)
if($group = DataObject::get_one('Group', "ID = $this->defaultGroupID")) {

         $member->Groups()->add($group);
         // Redirect to a page thanking people for registering
         Director::redirect('newsletter-erfolgreich-eingetragen/');

      }else{
         // Redirect to a failure page
         Director::redirect('newsletter-registristrierungs-fehler/');

}

$defaultGroupID = 3 is the newsletter user group created in the security section of the cms.
Why does the Director::redirect('newsletter-registristrierungs-fehler/'); not work?
What to edit on this code to catch this error?

Thanks. Pipifix

filtering Dataobject ::get for a CheckboxSetField

woodb2 — Fri, 10 Feb 2012 03:43:48 +1300

I currently have 2 Dataobjects, "Classroom" and "Students". In Classroom, I currently have a working CheckboxsetField that lets me add students to it by getting the names of the students from the Students Dataobject:

$studentlist = DataObject::get("Students");
$mapstudents = $studentlist ? $mapstudents = $studentlist->toDropdownMap('ID','Title') : array();
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Main', new CheckboxsetField('App','Apps', $mapstudents));

Since I have a 1:n relation established, each student can only be in 1 classroom (which is what I want). The problem is the CheckboxsetField always shows every student. If I create a new classroom record and select a student that was already in another class, that student is moved to the new record and remove from the previous class.

What I want to happen is the Checkboxset to only show students that haven't been assigned to a classroom.

Any help would be appreciated,
Brian

Re: SilverStripe v3.0 & Node.js

Lazarus404 — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:40:42 +1300

I really don't see Node outdoing PHP at any time. Both are very different beasts. Node has its advantages and PHP has theirs. For instance, take a look at CouchApps. Man, those things are awesome, simple, infinitely scaleable and super easy to deploy. One could suggest that CouchApps will outdo Node. However, I doubt that, too In reality, All three are viable options for many projects, but its just as viable to use all three in one app.

I do a shed load of Node.JS development, and it's fun stuff. Node is great for Cloud dev, handling huge numbers of connections and interacting with databases. However, I wouldn't like to use it for heavy file access. In fact, file access can be a big bottleneck for Node. PHP on the other hand is great for file access. Building CMS's in PHP is far simpler and more useful than doing so in Node.JS... Just direct me to a single CMS platform for Node! I'd struggle to find any that were any good. This isn't really because Node hasn't been around that long (even two years is long enough to build a simple CMS), but because a CMS in Node would be an altogether different beast.

My opinion? Use Node alongside PHP. Use Silverstripe to handle the CMS, while Node handles the connections. This is perfectly feasible and very flexible.

EN GB Spell-checker option?

Spaghetti — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 06:03:36 +1300

Hello,

I'm trying out SilverStripe CMS and I'm struggling with one issue. When I installed SS on WAMP, I selected English (United Kingdom), so I was surprised to see that the spell checker defaulted to US English. I was even more surprised to see that it was the only option of the drop down list in the page editor.

Having searched google and this forum, I found a hack to edit the config file so that UK English is the option in the drop down but this is all accademic anyway as the spell-checker seems to crash when I click on the link in both Chrome and Firefox.

I notice that this forums edit box has a decent spell-checker and that it's even UK English (if you register as EN UK). So why can't Silver-stripe spell-checker work as well as the Silver Stripe forum edit box?

This is a major bummer for me because being able to spell check your work is half of the benefit of using a CMS, IMHO. Hey ho.

Any thoughts or suggestions on how to fix this? Welcome....

Once you get inside a <% control %> you're in scope of the model record you're looping over. Not the controller class. If you put the function in class Page then it will be accessible everywhere you use page. You can also put global functions on your SiteConfig class then use $SiteConfig.Function anywhere.

Caching not working (Facebook widget example)

I am making an example of the book SilverStripe 2.4 Module Extension, ...

Apparently, no cache is being done, otherwise the function plugin (Feeds) not be executed.

Multi-line plain text field

onion — Tue, 07 Feb 2012 23:52:14 +1300

Hi, I want my pages to be as easy as possible to edit in the CMS, and so I've stripped out many of the formatting options in the HTML Editor Field eg:

HtmlEditorConfig::get('cms')->disablePlugins('table', 'contextmenu');
HtmlEditorConfig::get('cms')->setButtonsForLine(1, 'bold','italic','underline','separator', 'formatselect','separator', 'sslink','unlink', pastetext', 'pasteword', 'separator','bullist','numlist','hr','charmap' );
HtmlEditorConfig::get('cms')->setButtonsForLine(2);
HtmlEditorConfig::get('cms')->setButtonsForLine(3);

But in some cases I want to restrict this even more and just want a multi-line plain text field, with absolutely no chance of any formatting added. TextField is fine, but I want my editor to be able to add linebreaks. Is this possible?

Thoughts required on Admin management of modules

Mrfixer — Mon, 06 Feb 2012 00:19:40 +1300

Hi guys, quick question for you to see what the general concensus of opinion is on page management within a module at CMS.

Im using an example of a module that will have several page types, think of something on the lines of a classifieds / property listings site where various page types are needed such as HomePage listings, CategoryPage, SingleListingPage and so on.

Is it better to have any options that are set by admin done on a page per page basis, ie when Admin creates a page otions specific to that page are chosen

or (not really looked into how possible this other option would be, if it is at all possible)

Would it be better to have all options managed directly via one page added into CMS (on module install) that can include all options for the module where Admin can flow through them all pretty quickly and they are already set to go when page types are created..

If this is possible is there a module / tutorial that anyone can recommend that i can actualy take a look at to see how it would be implented. There is this http://doc.silverstripe.com/doku.php?id=private:tutorial:creating-a-module but it goes nowhere.

Thanks

Resolved. In case anybody else is interested, I realised that there is a separate manifest for main (ie web access) and cli-script, which is what the cron job was using. You can check the different builds of the manifest in the silverstripe-cache folder, which confirmed to me that my cli-script version was a few days old. To force a refresh just add "flush=all" to the end of your command.

Hi, that would make sense if:

- its working (where to put that code bit?)

- it was something i wanted to happen in a repetitive manner

WHICH IS NOT.

I mean, all i what to do is "shock" the entire system ONCE (and saves old pages ONCE) as new pages are rendering correctly.

- - -

Sure i could use a function ONCE, do the job and delete it after. Again, where to wrtei your code?

Page.php?
MemberPage.php? (the pages i want to get saved again)

But i was thinking more on the /dev/build side. There must be a routine that does that.

Keep the solutions coming!

Re: Class not found when run through Cron job

jayslippy — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 06:34:28 +1300

Thanks for the reply, I still don't quite know where to go with this though! Is there a way for me to debug the manifest builder and output the data somehow to see why some of my classes aren't being built? Does anybody know any reason why my extension class might be ignored sometimes and not others? I've run the /deb/build so it's not that.

I have now output the manifest file contents through the e-mail and the website, the relevant sections are copied below. What are the possible explanations for the manifest builder ignoring the FormFieldExtension.php file and the class it contains when run through a cron job, when it works fine through the browser?

via e-mail/cron job/command line:

'regularemailtask' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/mysite/tasks/RegularEmailTask.php',
'editprofilepage' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/registration/code/EditProfilePage.php',
'editprofilepage_controller' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/registration/code/EditProfilePage.php',

'registrationpage' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/registration/code/RegistrationPage.php',
'registrationpage_controller' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/registration/code/RegistrationPage.php',
'verificationextension' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/registration/code/VerificationExtension.php',
'dataformatter' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/sapphire/api/DataFormatter.php',

via website:

'regularemailtask' => '/nfs/c09/h02/mnt/129055/domains/mro-247.com/html/mysite/tasks/RegularEmailTask.php',

How about (this untested) code?

$pages = DataObject::get('Page');
if ($pages) foreach ($pages as $page) {
$page->writeToStage('Stage');
$page->publish("Stage", "Live");
}

Is there any difference in the way the code is built when run through command line compared to being accessed through a browser?

Depends on how you are running it through through command line. Silverstripe uses URL rewriting and send all php requests to sapphire/main.php with the url as a parameter.

Class not found when run through Cron job

jayslippy — Sun, 05 Feb 2012 04:56:22 +1300

I'm trying to set up regular tasks for my website using the Cron job feature from my web provider. The problem I have is that I have an extension class (code copied below) which works perfectly when browsing the website, but produces a class not found error when code is run by the cron job command line. I've spent a long time doing basic checks, and I have another extension class in the same folder which is added in the same config file and has no problems. I used the class_exists function to output to an e-mail through the cron job and to one of my web pages, and confirmed that it returns true to the web, but false to my e-mail!

Is there any difference in the way the code is built when run through command line compared to being accessed through a browser? Any reason why the code for this particular class would be ignored by my cron job even through the website finds it, builds it and uses the function it contains? Any suggestions on further tests I could run?

In the code below the two php files are in the same folder. When I remove the first add_extension everything works fine, so it is building the VerificationExtension class fine, but FormFieldExtension causes the fatal error.

In config.php

Object::add_extension('FormField', 'FormFieldExtension');
Object::add_extension('Page_Controller', 'VerificationExtension');

In FormFieldExtension.php

<?php

class FormFieldExtension extends Extension {

   public function hasNoLabelClass() {
      if($self = $this->owner) {
         if($self->hasClass("nolabel")) {
            return true;
         }
      }
      return false;
   }

}

In VerificationExtension.php

<?php

class VerificationExtension extends Extension {

   public function Verified() {
      if($member = Member::CurrentMember()){
         if($member->RegistrationStatus > 1) {
            return true;
         }
      }
      return false;
   }

}

Re: Global functions callable from templates?

Yes, that does work. I discovered my problem was trying to call it within a <% control %> block. SS stays quiet on that one ...

Control only last (any choice of #) pages created?

wilsonStaff — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 15:58:35 +1300

HI guys,

- i have a sub-pages systems that CMS-users add members (using a custom MembrePage class) to a lettered-class ordering, from A to Z.

- those section A to Z are childs of a main page, name MemberAll.

- so if client add a member whose companie's name begin with a "B", the page is added into the B sub-section.

- i have a page (NewMembrePage) that MUST display the latest entries within the MembreAll page (so within A - Z sections

Presently, end-users add the new entries manually, so both into the B-section AND into NewmembrePage

QUESTION: how can i have the NewMemberPage reflects the new entries, be they from D, H or any lettered-section?

Ive read about $Created.Nice that returns the date of creation.

In my head, the code would be like:

//*** IN NEWMEMBREPAGE ***//

<% control Page (MembreAll) %> /* look into MembreAll page */
<% control Children %> /* look into all lettered sections from A - Z pages */
$Created. Last(5) /* pick the last 5 created */
<% end_control %>
<% end_control %>

if i wanted to show last 5 entries.

Know its not that, but thats what id like to do.

Any clue?

Thanks!

Saving all pages at once?

wilsonStaff — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 15:47:25 +1300

Hi guys, i have over 400s pages of the same type. Some created BEFORE i added a script to the Page class, and some created AFTER i added the script.

- The pages created AFTER correctly returns the data while the pages created BEFORE arent.

- Ive noticed while searching for the problem that if i load in the CMS and nothing more that SAVE&PUBLISH the old pages, they update themselves and correctly shows correct the data.

- so id have to manually OPEN and SAVE&PUBLISH over 400s pages.

QUESTION: is there a way to "shock" the DB and save/update/publish all pages at once?

Thanks!

Re: New Working DropDownMenu

Possibles — Sat, 04 Feb 2012 03:44:28 +1300

Hello there

It seems great. I installed it to see if it is working

The thing is that the menu are diplayed the way you show in your screens but it is always fully open.

I guess that in that when it fully works you have to click or rolloover to see submenus ?

I think I did things like you said .

Thanks

doesn't sound like a problem then - if you have mod_rewrite on (which is seems like you do) then you have no need for index.php
I delete it after installation on mysites
