Currently i am working on my portfolio using CMS Made Simple.
I have some difficulty's finding and implementing the right tools.

I want to make a structure like this.
  • 1.Competent group1
    • [li]1.Skill group 1.1
    • 2.Skill group 1.2
    • 3.Skill group 1.3
      • [li]1.Skill  a
      • 2.Skill b
      • 3.Skill c
        • [li]1.Learning process 3c
        • 2.Competence 3c
        [/li]
      • 4.Skill d
      [/li]
    [/li]
  • 2.Professional skills (group2)
    • [li]1.Computer Skill (group 2.1)
    • 2.Planing and organisation (group 2.2)
      • [li]1.Scheduling appointments (a)
      • 2.Time management (b)
        • [li]1.Learning process 2b
        • 2.Competence 2b
        [/li]
      [/li]
    [/li]
  • 3.Competent group3
    • [li]1.Skill group 3.1
      • [li]1.Skill  a
      • 2.Skill b
      • 3.Skill c
        • [li]1.Learning process 3c
        • 2.Competence 3c
        [/li]
      [/li]
    [/li]

The first page must be generate base on the “Skill Group” grouped by the upper levels. The page must contain the names of the skills and some supporting text. The skills will link to a deeper level.


Competent group1
Professional skills 2

Computer Skill (group 2.1) Vestibulum sem. Praesent nibh est, fringilla non,
consequat a, mollis vel, nibh. Nullam nulla. Donec vulputate metus eu nunc. In lectus enim, congue rhoncus, ornare nec
Planing and organisation (group 2.2) Praesent sed ipsum eget tortor luctus euismod.
Suspendisse nisi diam, iaculis non, consequat ac, porta quis, sem. Duis pharetra velit. In quam.
Competent group 3



The second page (linked skill) must display a list of the skills in the selected group containing a number or symbol to mark the experience in that particular area.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 
    Planing and organisation (group 2.2)
    1
    2
    3
    4
    5
 
 
    Scheduling appointments
   
   
    X
   
   
 
 
    Time management
    X
   
   
   
   
 


----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last page (based on the rating) must containing some information about the learning process or some text to proof the competence.  Fields like: Feedback, Goals, Deadlines, etc.


I want to use these principle for more aims.
It world be nice if some one can tell what module is best to use, and give a example how to implement.

Hi milagro,

Sorry, but I don't really understand your structure. You may find it easier just to write out separate pages. Not sure though.

The PageBlocks module can include custom fields in it's templates.

From the help:
Example of use: Job Listings

  1. Create a "Employment Opportunities" page.
  2. Go to Content » Page Blocks
  3. Click on the templates tab.
  4. Click "Add Template"
  5. Paste in a template. Maybe something like this: Code:

      Job Title: {$title}
      Work Experience required: {content block="WorkExperience"}
      Detailed Description: {content block="DetailedDescription"}
      Person to Contact: {content block="ContactPerson" oneline="true"}
      This job posting was last modified: {$modified}
      etc...

      NOTE: The name of the block must NOT CONTAIN SPACES (it does not seem to work)! ;)
  6. Go back to Content » Page Blocks
  7. Next to your "Employment Opportunities" page click "Add Block".
  8. Choose the template you added earlier and all the {content block="block name"} will show up as input fields.
  9. Repeat step 8 for each job.
Sorry I'm not able to help very much,

Elijah

Is there a option to put a image in a fixed place?

Not directly.

The way I would do it would be to add a {content block="Picture"} tag to your PageBlocks template and then just use the WYSIWYG to add the picture to the textarea. Then you can just put the {content block="Picture"} tag wherever you want the picture to show up.

That'll work fine. That's what the WYSIWYG editor would generate.

I meant that I don't have a pageblock type that simply allow an image to be chosen.

Img tags will work fine.

Ah, so you want to be able to display content of children pageblocks from within a parent pageblock?
I've filed a feature request for this: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/tracker/in ... 3&atid=828
Someday maybe I'll get around to adding that feature.

Fulfilled: http://viewsvn.cmsmadesimple.org/viewsv ... s&view=rev

You can now show just the children of a block:

show_children_of:
Outputs only the children of a specific block.
Only the children of the given parent block id are shown.
Example (only shows children of block id 52):

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='pageblocks' show_children_of='52'}
From within a pageblocks template:

Display the content of child blocks in a parent block.
This will output all the children of the curent block:

Code: Select all

{cms_module module='pageblocks' show_children_of=$pageblock_id}
Hope this helps,

Elijah
