[suggestion] list css_id in admin interface

[backwoodsman]

When developing sites, using browser developer tools, the css_id is available, but not the name of the css pages. This makes it very difficult to debug css problems.

I would like to suggest adding the id to the display in listcss.php and listcssassoc.php. as a permanent feature of cmsms.

The changes are obvious and very simple:

listcss.php:

Code: Select all

103a104
>               echo "<th>ID</th>\n";
121a123
>               echo "<td>".$one["css_id"]."</td>\n";

listcssassoc.php:

Code: Select all

204a205
>         $tmp['id'] = $row['assoc_css_id'];

templates/listcssassoc.tpl

Code: Select all

10a11
>     <th>ID</th>
20a22
>       <td>{$one.id}</td>

And, while we are at it, it is useful to know which stylesheet ID you are editing, so add this too:

editcss.php

Code: Select all

364c364
<                       <p class="pagetext">*<?php echo lang('name')?>:</p>
---
>                       <p class="pagetext">[ID: <?php echo $css_id ?>]&nbsp;&nbsp;*<?php echo lang('name')?>:</p>

(beware: the last line may be split right in the middle of a '?>' php closing tag -- be sure to re-join it!)

If you really want to have the Devs look into this I would file a FR, feature request, in the forge...

Good idea. I would have done, but could not see which project to post it against.

Post it against the core.

Thanks for the link. 'Core' wasn't in the list of projects! I've filed the FR now.

[Wishbone]

It is, under 'CMS Made Simple Core'
