Hello everyone,
I've been following the Tutorial at http://doc.silverstripe.org/tutorials and i've now reached tutorial number 2, and i'm stuck at the part where i need to create the 2 new fields for the my ArticlePage.
I'm rather confident that i followed the tutorial 100%, but i simply can't get my fields to show in my ArticlePage in the adminitration.
I've created a new php file in mysite/code and named it "ArticlePage.php" and the content of the file is
<?php
/**
* Defines the ArticlePage page type
*/
class ArticlePage extends Page {
static $db = array(
'Date' => 'Date',
'Author' => 'Text'
);
static $has_one = array(
);
}
class ArticlePage_Controller extends Page_Controller {
}
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new DateField('Date'), 'Content');
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content.Main', new TextField('Author'), 'Content');
return $fields;
}
?>
After i ran /dev/build i got this output which i assume menas that the fields where created in the database:
...
# Table ArticlePage: created
# Field ArticlePage.ID: created as int(11) not null auto_increment
# Field ArticlePage.Date: created as date
# Field ArticlePage.Author: created as mediumtext character set utf8 collate utf8_general_ci
# Table ArticlePage_Live: created
# Field ArticlePage_Live.ID: created as int(11) not null auto_increment
# Field ArticlePage_Live.Date: created as date
# Field ArticlePage_Live.Author: created as mediumtext character set utf8 collate utf8_general_ci
# Table ArticlePage_versions: created
# Field ArticlePage_versions.ID: created as int(11) not null auto_increment
# Field ArticlePage_versions.RecordID: created as int(11) not null default 0
# Field ArticlePage_versions.Version: created as int(11) not null default 0
# Field ArticlePage_versions.Date: created as date
# Field ArticlePage_versions.Author: created as mediumtext character set utf8 collate utf8_general_ci
# Index ArticlePage_versions.RecordID_Version: created as (RecordID,Version)
# Index ArticlePage_versions.RecordID: created as (RecordID)
# Index ArticlePage_versions.Version: created as (Version)
...
I tried both admin?flush=1 and dev/build multiple times, but the 2 new fields wont show up.
I've downloaded Silvestripe today, and it's version 2.4.0.
Is the tutorial outdated, or did i do do something wrong?
Hope someone can point me in the right direction since Silverstripe looks really awesome :-)
