Lemonie — Thu, 17 May 2012 02:51:44 +1200

I have installed the blog module from here:

I have uploaded some widgets to the root and have done a dev/build?flush=1

The blog shows up in the CMS but there is no widgets tab. When I click on the blog on the website it says:

Blog

Generated with the default ContentController.ss template

I've forked infinite scroll myself in order to fix this, as we're having the same issue.

I've added an option called currPageIncrement in state, so that you can pass whatever number you need to make it work, the code is here:

Blogtree is like a holder for blogholders - If u use it like so

Blogtree 1
-blogholder 1
-blogholder 2
-blogholder 3
--blogentry 1
blogtree 2
-blogholder 4

and so on
if u use structure like that than u can specify the widgets already in blogtree and all the blogholders under it uses all the widgets what u specified in blogtree

Trouble with the combination of SS3-Fixes and SS3 beta 2

yaunix — Sat, 05 May 2012 17:48:47 +1200

I installed SS3 beta2 with blog module. And there may be some bugs to prevent from working with SS3 beta2, as I write below.

1. Table name of comment
Comments module uses comment table instead of pagecomment table. So we should change table name from pagecomment to comment in BlogManagementWidget.php.

2. getCMSFields of BlogEntry.php

Fields(such as Author, Date) are not shown in admin page. To fix this, as far as I saw BlogHolder.php, the tab name should be changed to Main.Root.
In addition, editor is also not shown. I don't know why this works, but I commented out $this->extend('updateCMSFields', $fields), editor appeared.
After these changes, the getCMSFields would become below.

I also wrote step by step instruction of installing SS3 with blog module on my blog. ( http://gsoc2012ss.yaunix.com/blog/how-to-install-ss3-beta2-with-blog-module/ )
I am newbie to SS3, and there may be some misunderstandings and wrong directions.

Thanks in advance.

Yuki

If you are using SS3 with development environment, comment it out, Director::set_environment_type("dev");, or change php.ini.

In the past few days, I also installed SS3 beta2 with blog module(I also got many problems with the installation!).
I wrote step by step instruction of using blog module with SS3 beta 2.

Hello,
I downloaded blog module, extracted it into localhost/silverstripe/ folder (where cms folder is) and ran that script thingy (http://localhost/silverstripe/dev/build?flush=all). It wrote that everything went well and bla bla bla but the module is obviously not installed because I cannot create the page like a blog stuff.

Please help or my head will explode, there is no possibility to even contact forum members online because there is no info on the site.
Please just provide some information or give me you IM or something because I am not really feeling like solving this with my mind not blown away.

Thank you.

Re: [Solved] RSS Feed - Not rendering html correctly

By adding HTML in front of Text when defining the $desc variable:

$desc = new HTMLText('Description');

[Solved] RSS Feed - Not rendering html correctly

Blackthorn87 — Tue, 01 May 2012 21:32:40 +1200

Hey Guys,

I am currently trying to render an RSS Feed which contains html elements. I have duplicated and editted the RSS Widget that comes with the Blog module by changing this line:

$desc->setValue(strip_tags($item->get_description(),"&"));

for this line:

$desc->setValue($item->get_description(html));

This has left in the html that the strip_tags command was taking out, but is rendering the "< >" as "< >".

In the template that is rendering the description I have tried this:

<ul class="Articles">
   <% control FeedItems2 %>
      <li class="$EvenOdd<% if First %> first<% end_if %><% if Last %> last<% end_if %>">
         <h4><a name="Article-0$Pos"></a>$Title</h4>
         $Description
      </li>
   <% end_control %>
</ul>

and this

But it still isn't rendering the html correctly.

Any help would be much appreciated!

Thanks again.

Aggregate multiple blogs into one holder

muskie9 — Thu, 26 Apr 2012 04:18:43 +1200

Hello all,

Before I try to tackle an idea I had for the blog module I wanted to first check that I'm not re-inventing the wheel. I want to do something similar to Uncle Cheese's Event Calendar module in regards to including other blogs' posts in a collective holder page. I've looked at the Event Calendar module as a reference and found that he accomplished this with a many_many relation for the holder page types. Is it currently possible to have one blog holder pull the children from other blog holders without setting up this relation?

How to add Number of Entries to Blog's Archive widget?

phawley — Mon, 09 Apr 2012 15:57:13 +1200

Hello all. I've been trying to add an entry count to the blog's Archive Widget, but without any success. I've tried adding COUNT in the SQL statement and moving the DISTINCT clause in to parens, but this clobbers the AS \"Month\" and AS \"Year\" needed for the actual widget. I'm just looking for a simple count of entries per each result which I can render in my sidebar:

April 2012 (3)
March 2012 (12)
February 2012 (17)

etc.

Thanks in advance for any thoughts or pointers.

Re: How display all blog tags on home page

inCharge — Wed, 28 Mar 2012 00:25:39 +1300

In HomePage.php...

   function LatestBlogs() {
      return DataObject::get('BlogEntry', 'ShowInSearch=1', 'Date DESC', '', 5);
   }

This shows the most recent 5 posts, from newest to oldest. Change the last parameter to change the number of posts returned.
Posts with 'Show In Search' unchecked are excluded.

In homepage.ss...

         <ul>
            <% control LatestBlogs %>
            <li class="$LinkingMode<% if first %> first<% else_if last %> last<% end_if %>"><a href="$Link">$MenuTitle</a></li>
            <% end_control %>
         </ul>

The classes first & last are added to help with styleing.

Optionally, if you plan on having a lot of blog posts, add a database index to the blog date field to speed up the LatestBlogs function. Add BlogEntryDecorator.php

class BlogEntryDecorator extends DataObjectDecorator {
   public function extraStatics() {
      return array(
         'indexes' => array(
            'date' => '(Date)',
         )
      );
   }
}

Add to _config.php

Object::add_extension('BlogEntry', 'BlogEntryDecorator');

Re: Overriding Blog Classes

novaweb — Thu, 22 Mar 2012 08:45:08 +1300

Hi Rodolfo,

If you extend the class you wish to extend in Blog, then use add_extension in mysite/_config.php, then... you should be able to redeclare the class you wish to override, rewrite the class to follow your new logic, then the old class should be ignored?

Could be wrong but it may work.

Hi Nova,

Thanks for the reply.

I gave it a go but it didn't work. After reading the docs more closely I realized that this won't do what I want, which is replace the behavior of an existing method. The use of the decorator pattern allows me to dynamically add methods to an existing object but not override them.

There must be a way to override classes in the Blog module....

Mr Rodolfo,

I could be wrong, but I have run in to this in the past. It's because only objects instantiated using Object::create can be overridden using Object::useCustomClass

Instead of ::useCustomClass, try ::add_extension

Hi,

I'm trying to override a function in TagCloudWidget using a custom class but SS seems to ignore this new file.

Basically what I did was:

- I created a new class in /mysite/code/CustomTagCloudWidget.php with the following structure

<?php

class CustomTagCloudWidget extends TagCloudWidget {

function TagsCollection() {
// new stuff
}
}

- Added the useCustomClass method to my _config.php file

Object::useCustomClass('TagCloudWidget', 'CustomTagCloudWidget', true);

Am I missing something?

Thank you in advance.

Blog Owners and Blog Management permission issues

davepolyester — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 11:10:06 +1300

Hi team,

I'm trying to get my head around what the Blog Owner setting actually does in a Blog Holder.

Surely the only person who can manage a particular Blog (Holder) would be the person set as the Blog Owner? However I am finding that anyone with Blog Management permissions is able to manage any Blog, post to any Blog, etc, whether they are the Owner or not.

I would expect this to be the case only when Blog Owner is set to None, but having Blog Owner set to None doesn't seem to change anything. Therefore, what is the purpose of having a Blog Owner?

This makes for a very insecure system where, if I have multiple bloggers running their own blogs, they can all post to each others Blogs any time they want!

Can someone please shed some light on this for me?
