Thanks, I'll check that!

Seems like BigTree will be my CMS of choice for the following years!

Thanks again for your help Tim.

Do you have a tutorial for the custom view thing?
Do you think it would be possible to implement a thumbnail in a custom view?

Basically, add a column to your view that has data you wouldn't normally use and then use a view parser to fill that column with the related category names.

And would the search box work over that new "fake" column too?

I need to add categories to a module with a M2M field. I'm not using the included tags because those categories have to be multilingual.

The M2M field works fine, problem comes with list views. I'd like the user to be able to filter table items based on those categories. For example in a table of images filter "family photos", or "travel photos".

Is this possible?

Maybe someone here can recommend me a better way to solve than using a M2M field.

Thanks in advance

Thanks, you are super helpful Tim as always.

Isn't there any other way to display a thumb or crop in the list view?

It would be great if M to M fields had an interface similar to the one of tags. Instead of choosing from a dropdown (which can become quite long) being able to just start typing in a search box and choosing from list of results.

Also, for the M to M fields, it would be great to be able to disable delete confirmation. It can become tedious to delete all relationships, and after all if the user deletes one by mistake it's easy to add it again.

I'm trying to use a parser to display a cropped thumbnail in a list view.

I've tried different things but I'm not able to get an image in the list.

This echoes some "evaled" and trimmed text with an ellipsis

$url = $value;
$value = '<img src='.$url.'>';

This does the trick, but the URL of the image is wrong: {staticroot}files/modules/fileName.jpg
Even if I got the right URL I'd get the big image and not the crop.

$url = $value;
echo '<img src='.$url.'>';
$value = '';

So how can I access the crop of the upload field and display it in a list view?

I have installed the CMS, this time without the demo site. At the top I get a title that says "BigTree Site". I'm assuming this is the site name, but I've looked everywhere and I can't find a site setting page or a config file in the docs.

Where can I change that?

Thanks, you are right. It's best to have that on a different security layer.

It would be a great addition to the CMS btw wink

I'd like to see if I can use the user functionalities from BigTree CMS to also manage users for the public site.

I've been looking into the code reference but I haven't found any sort of methods for checking users, permissions, and so forth.

Is there anything already done in this front?

In the demo site there is a top bar that shows my type of user. Where is the php code that shows that?

Thanks!

Thanks!

Are there any plans on being able to create new columns directly from the CMS?

#14 Re: Developer Help » Editing a module form » February 13, 2015 10:50am

What types of columns correspond to the BigTree types of fields?

I'm trying to edit a module form, but I can't seem to find the button for adding a field. I only see buttons for adding a "many to many" and "geocoding".

How do I add a field to a form?

I'm testing the CMS and I want to create a new module. When creating views and forms it asks for a table. I'm confused because I would have thought that the table was created with the module automatically.

Do I have to create tables manually in MySQL?
Is there a way to create tables from inside the CMS?
