CMS Made Simple Forums

Thanks for the reply @velden. This seems like such a basic content management need that it's disappointing not to see it supported in CMSMS. Wanting to add and sort images for a page outside of the context of a WYSIWYG editor is a very common scenario in all but the most basic of templates. Using a ...

Hi everyone, It's been a while since I last worked with CMSMS - not since before 2.0 was released. One challenge I remember was the scenario where you want to upload multiple images to a dedicated field within a page. For a single image I could use GBFilePicker, but for multiple images there was no ...

Thanks calguy!

After posting here I also found this for earlier versions of CMSMS.

Is there a method for returning the name of the template that is assigned to a given page ID/alias?

Thanks.

I'd like to learn a good way to create a new gallery in the Gallery module from a UDT. Auto-generating galleries for pages/news items/listit2 items is something I find myself needing to do regularly (and I wish Gallery had closer integration with pages/news/etc but that's a topic for another day). I...

Hi folks,

Can anyone tell me how to get the hierarchy level of the current page? In other words: how many parents the current page has.

Thanks.

Edit: I came up with this but it's a bit of a cludge. Is there a better way?

Thanks for the reply. 2 calls on one page? Yes, I think that will be the only way. Thinking that it would be good to merge the event arrays from the two module calls so a single foreach loop can be used, I came up with the following... In the CGCalendar template for the first module call (pastlist):...

Looking at the parameters for CGCalendar, I can't see a way to display a list of all events. There are options for listing past events, upcoming events, or events for a given year, but no option to simply display all events.

Any suggestions?

Sure, lots of topics fit the format of "___ is broken in my site, help me". Maybe these topics have a specific solution that's unique to that user's situation, and maybe when that specific issue is solved the topic should be locked. My objection is that under the new regime it seems all to...

Thanks for the replies. You can register a class with optional namespace for the use in the template I saw this in the Smarty documentation too, but I don't think it applies in my situation - I don't need to use the namespace in my template, only inside the UDT. maybe it will have to be a plugin ins...

I'm trying to get the Gregwar/Image PHP class working on my CMSMS site. I can use the class okay directly in a PHP file, but when I try and use the same code in a UDT I get an error in my log: PHP Fatal error: Call to undefined function cms_user_tag_gw_image() My testing code is... require_once('ven...

Tried to contribute something to another topic that was about 7 weeks old - locked again. Mods: can the period that topics are open please be extended? When I'm looking for a solution to a problem I search the forum, and I'm sure many people do the same. So the forum serves the CMSMS community as a ...

That is brilliant!
Thanks.

I'd like to be able to get the array of options that exist for a specific field definition (e.g. the list of options that are defined for a dropdown control). I can do that fine if going via a ListIt2 item - I can load an item with ListIt2Loader or in a foreach loop and do: $item->fielddefs.myfield-...
