Re: Page dependant background image?

and just in case you didn't try it, that 'background-image' inline style isn't quite right. It should be something like: <section id="chapterimage" style="background-image: url({content_image block='MyImage' dir='img' urlonly=1});"> but if you can let us see what the output actua...

Walking Festival Site

Bit of a cheat this one because the main site has been around for ages, but we've just added some fancy pages as part of a walking festival to one of our sites. http://www.visitchilterns.co.uk/walkingfest.html The festival events are handled with a custom module which does lat / lng lookups for the ...

Re: Upgrade FEUser - I think I've broken my site

The issue with the foreign key restraints when trying to upgrade FEU was present in older versions of the module. It's been fixed since but it may be that if you were upgrading using a version of FEU prior to 1.31.2 that may be your problem. Bug log is http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/bug/view/10934 It ...

Re: What's the best way to add an image caption in CMSMS 2.+

It's not ideal, but in the past we've used javascript to pull out the title tag from an image and display it as a tooltip. I'm sure it wouldn't be too difficult to grab the title text and add it to a caption tag or div underneath an image. A couple of lines of jQuery and some fiddling with CSS. A qu...

Re: Template unable to find module, but it is active

Try using the longer version of the module tag as well ... I have a vague recollection of needing to do that when upgrading an old site a while back..

So.

{cms_module module="News"}

rather than

{News}

Re: Change website font to google Michroma...

In the HEAD of your page template you have the links to the Google font wrapped in some NOSCRIPT tags. Because most browsers have Javascript enabled then they won't bother with the tags in there. If you disable Javascript in you browser then the font appears :-) You'll just need to check your templa...

Re: Content Manager - Error Page Hierarchy

Looks like somehow the parent page managed to get deleted leaving an orphan :(

Changing the parent_id value for the content item in the db directly seems to have got the site back up and running again. No idea why it happened though.

Re: Making a circular image using CGSmartImage

Don't forget you can just use CSS to display a round image. Bootstrap just uses:

Code: Select all

.img-circle {
	border-radius: 50%;
}
that might be easier if you don't know the dimensions of your image.

Re: Flat File Templates / Theme System

I'm sure others will weigh in with pros and cons, but you can use flat files already, and in fact we do nearly all our development this way. Template files stored in /tmp/templates are accessible to the CMS, so our normal workflow is to set up a template in admin that then includes whatever external...

Re: Website admin very slow after moving website

This might be due to the File Manager dropdown in OneEleven. We have a couple of servers (cloud servers especially) that are really slow to load all the paths in the dropdown. This is especially true if you have 'Enable advanced mode' selected in the File Manager options so first thing to do is make...

Re: Gallery image search

Yep - what Jos says. I think making the Search module work would be difficult A possible alternative would be to have a input box on the thumbnails page that filters the images shown as the user types using javascript. That would be fairly easy to do in just a few lines of js (assuming you have all ...

Re: Unrequested tags

The paragraph tags are probably being automatically inserted by the wysiwyg editor. If you're using TinyMCE rather than MicroTiny as your content editor then there's an option to disable 'Force paragraph on line break'. If the only thing that's going in the imagebox div is the Gallery tag though the...

Re: Ordering fields in pages backend -cmsms2

There's a priority parameter for content blocks you can use for ordering ... not sure whether ECB respects it but you can give it a go.

Code: Select all

(optional) priority (integer) - Allows specifying an integer priority for the block within the tab.
