I would like to add two optional properties for every page in sulu, the name of a menu-icon and an additional long title for every menu-item. I thought the best place to add those would be the "Settings" tab which shows up when editing an individual page in the admin, underneath the "Show page in" option.
Is there any way to add my own fields to this tab, or do i have to make it an individual property in every page-template? And why isn't the mandatory page-title an option like "Show in page" which doesn't require inclusion in individual page-templates?
We already thought about removing the title from the structure, but it grow that way, and it is not that easy to remove. Apart from that we are not sure if we want that at all, because this way you can place the title in the form where ever you want.
And it is currently not possible to easily add fields to the settings tab. Either you add them to the content tab using the XML files, or you create an own tab for your data as described in the documentation.

This should be a really simple thing that for some reason I can get to work.
I have an MS Word document which has a drop-down field. If I double-click it - a dialog comes up to add or remove things from the drop-down field.
I just need to be able to get out of this mode so that the drop-down field behaves like it should from a user's point-of-view rather than from a design point-of-view. Basically I just need it to display the items rather than a dialog to allow me to add and remove the items.
According to what I've read, it looks like I should be able to do this by going to Developer, and then toggling the Design Mode button. This doesn't work; whether the Design Mode button is on or off I still can't get it to just act like a drop-down.
Thanks much
It sounds like you're using a legacy form field dropdown. For those to operate as a dropdown, you must protect the document for forms:
On the Developer tab, click on Restrict Editing. The Restrict Editing task pane opens.
In the task pane, check the box beside Allow only this type of editing in the document.
In the next dropdown, choose Filling in forms.
Click on Yes, Start Enforcing Protection.
Protected forms don't allow text to be edited in protected sections. In those areas, only form fields allow you to enter text. If that's too restrictive, look into Content Controls, which don't require document protection.
The problem is the folowing:
I have one list that shows up on 6 diferent forms using content types.
I have to show a name for each different form but have no idea how to do it.
I tryed googling but no luck there.
If I had 6 diferent forms I would solve it but i must use this because of the related workflows.
You have 6 content types in one list ? And you want to show some name depending on content type ?
If this is your case then you can add Content Editor Web Part or Script Editor Web Part to default forms (New, Edit, Display). This web part will contain javascript code.
Javascript code on form load will get content type id query string parameter from URL and render necessary name depending on this content type id.
Go to your library, and from the ribbon choose Library Settings
From the Settings page General Settings column choose the Advanced Settings Link
From the Advanced Settings page choose the Yes radio button for the Allow Management of Content Types option, and then click OK
From the Settings page, in the Content Type panel, choose Add from Existing Content Types
From the Add Content Types add the Content Types you want to use on your page and click OK
From the Settings page, in the Content Type panel, choose Change new button order and default content type
From the Change New Button Order page ensure all your content types have the Visible box checked (this makes the Content Types useable in the list) and then click OK
Now go back to your normal list view and from the ribbon choose New Document - you should see all your Content Type forms listed
I have a multi-page form, using a vertical tabs UI, in redux-form, and I'd like to track the current tab selection in the redux-form store.
What's the best way of doing this?
I would track the current tab selection outside of redux-form, but I've integrated redux-form with redux-undo, and I'd really like for undoing a form change to go back to the tab of the modified control.
I tried using a selected redux-form field, but this means that changing the selected tab marks the form as dirty.
From reading the docs, I could probably use reducer.plugin to add arbitrary properties to the redux-form store, but I don't see any documentation of which arbitrary property names are "safe," and I'd have to update the plugin for every form that should behave this way.
Any ideas?
MS Access Development Question:
I have 3 options and I need each one associated with a different set of objects. Therefore, if you click option 1, a set of objects will appear in a box I'm referring to as "Report Parameters". If I click option 2, the objects in the "Report Parameters" box will disappear and a new set of objects will appear.
I didn't want to write code to switch each object from visible = true to visible = false. I thought that would take too long, especially if the number of option buttons or the objects related to it grow.
So I'm trying several things...
I tried putting all objects, that relate to a particular option, in a Subform. Therefore, I would have three subforms and that would sit in the same position on my main form. When you click on an option, the subform for that option is made visible any anything else is hidden. But I have a background picture that needs to be visible on the main form and you can't make the subform background transparent.
I used Tab Controls; however, I didn't want to use the tabs to control the switch between objects. I can hide the tabs but you can still switch between them if you click the space where the tab should be. It can be made transparent though so that helps a lot.
I need something in-between a Subform and Tab Control but I've hit a dead end. Does anyone have any other suggestions or recommendations? Or am I stuck coding for each object?
I'm an experienced VBA developer. My last option was to run a query against the form and pull all object names and save it to a table. Since the syntax of the name for each object connects it to a button, I can always run a loop that makes all objects visible/invisible if the object's name corresponds with a specific option... but... I guess I'm trying to find a shortcut. Let me know what you think! Thanks.
I was able to resolve my issue. I just needed to do some thinking... so writing up this question was a bit premature. I'll write down what I did in the event that someone has the same issue I have.
First, I used the Tab Control object to resolve my issue. I made the control transparent and named each page to reflect the Option Button I was selecting.
I then mapped each option to a button in the VBA code of the button. Therefore, when the button is selected it does several things.
First, it makes the default value of any of the other options equal to false. I also set the visibility of their corresponding pages to false.
Second, I select the page I need visible and set the visibility to true. I also make it my active page.
Lastly, as a safety measure, if the option button is already selected, and you select it again, by setting the value of that option to true. This is to prevent it from changing to false. One option should always be selected.
Hope that all made sense!
I'm working with a WordPress website and a client wants to show a list of categories in the footer. Unfortunately, it is showing as empty because he has no posts and has set the categories to portfolio items which he wants people to be able to click to.
So, how do I show the portfolio categories in the widget rather than the post categories?
Thanks,
Jack
Probably the easiest way I can think of to get the result that you want without having to resort to changing any Theme Files would be this:
Log into your Wordpress Dashboard
Navigate to Appearance->Menus
Create a new Menu, and (if applicable) enable the Custom Taxonomies for your menu by clicking on Screen Options (top right-hand corner of the page) and ticking your Portfolio's Custom Categories and/or Custom Post Types
Once all of the items you want is in your Custom Menu, save it.
Navigate to Appearance->Widgets
Add the Custom Menu Widget to the sidebar in which you would like your items to appear
Select the Custom Menu you just created, and Save
When dealing with Premium Themes, it would always be safest to stay out of their code and avoid changing anything altogether, so try this approach first. Otherwise, you may have to get your hands dirty and alter some code or contact the Theme Developer.
