I am using MEAN.IO to creating my application. Right now, I want to move Join menu from right to left. I can do so by modify packages/system/server directly, but it is not a very clean way. I wonder what is the clean way for me to achieve it.
It's some html markup hardcoded in /packages/system/public/views/header.html, try to change the css class of:
<div class="account"></div>

I'd like to create a custom drag and drop template so I can increase the design possibilities without losing the functionality. I can't find anything in their documentation.
I was hoping to create something like this, not sure if I'm missing something obvious but I can't find a drag and drop that allows for the different coloured background with columns too.
I could use a block of code but I can't edit the css styles so it wouldn't be responsive for mobile and also not very friendly for those who don't know html.
Rather old question, but to who it might be helpfull:
If you code your own template and upload it to Mailchimp you lose the 'drag & drop' system/UX interface with the different blocks. You are able to create repeatable blocks but then it works with a dropdown list. This is (in my humble opinion) not that user friendly and takes a while before you fully understand how to use the dropdown. I had to explain it to a client earlier today and took a while before they understood it, so I decided to write them a manual for it.
But the design you want to create should be possible to make with a standard MC template. In the 'design' tab you will find settings to control background colors etc.
Still not possible, answer from the Mailchimp support: "At the moment, it's not currently possible to code a drag and drop template completely--one of our drag and drop template layouts will need to be selected, but you can drop in Code blocks to get a little more control over the styling of certain sections."
Though, if it's any help, it is possible to fully custom code your own template, and then add in mailchimps special Template language to the template to open up sections as editable within the campaign builder--or even duplicate certain sections of content. It's not quite the same as the drag drop templates, but adds similar functionality. More info on working with template language can be found here: https://mailchimp.com/help/getting-started-with-mailchimps-template-language/
I know this is an old question, but while searching for this myself I stumbled upon a solution posted here.
Basically it is possible to code your own drag n' drop template, but the solution has not been documented.
Find one of the Mailchimp templates (either one of the basic templates or a custom template from the 'Themes' menu.
Use 'Inspect element' and copy the source code of the iFramed html-email.
Paste in your preferred HTML-editor and modify as intended
Create your own template from the 'Paste in code' mode
If you want custom modules to be added by default, edit using the menu 'Edit design' in the bottom of the screen.
Save and exit :)
I found part of the answer on another topic: [Is it possible to code drag&drop templates for mailchimp?
If you add the following code into your main content div or td it will enable the drag and drop block editor:
mc:container="body_container" mccontainer="body_container"
example:
<div mc:container="body_container" mccontainer="body_container"></div>
This code will add a block editor region to the preheader section:
mc:container="preheader_container" mccontainer="preheader_container"
For the header:
mc:container="header_container" mccontainer="header_container"
For the footer:
mc:container="footer_container" mccontainer="footer_container"
Note: It doesn't seem to matter what you call the mc:container. Creating a new container with a different name worked. Although using just mc:container tag seems to work at first by itself, the mccontainer (no colon) tag is required for it to save properly.
You can create your own drag and drop template you need to add the following into your html coded template where you want the 'drag and drop' feature to exist.
<div id="templateBody" mc:container="container_name" mccontainer="container_name" class="tpl-container">
<div mc:block="3502204" mc:blocktype="text" mcblock="3502204" mcblocktype="text" class="tpl-block"></div>
</div>
This can be repeated in your code multiple times for multiple insertions. I could not find documentation to indicate if the container name or block number needs to be unique, I did make it unique in my template.
If this isn't possible please let me know!
I'm hoping there's a solution to what I'm asking.
I need to move the Next/Prev buttons, located in the pagenavigation plugin to after the <jdoc:include type="component" />; Basically render it anywhere in my templates' index.php?
Is there any way to do this?
This is the code that renders the pagination:
<?php
if (!empty($this->item->pagination) && $this->item->pagination && $this->item->paginationposition && !$this->item->paginationrelative):
echo $this->item->pagination;
?>
<?php endif; ?>
As you can see the pagination is part of the item. As you can see if you look at the pagenavigation content plugin the pagination values are created in response to the onContentBeforeDisplay event. The plugin is hard coded to only work for articles in the single article view.
So to use it in a different component you would really need to create a second plugin for that component (or you could do any component or anything besides the single article view, that all would be easy to code using context).
To locate it in a different place in the single article view you would have to move the block of code to the desired location in the layout. Potentially you could also use css to locate the rendering of the block somewhere else on the page. (But more on this at the bottom.)
Unfortunately (but nor surprisingly given its name) onContentBeforeDisplay comes really late, in the view (unlike with pagination in the backend).
I always find it confusing because this frontend "pagination" property controlled by this plugin has nothing to do with backend pagination which is controlled by a JPagination object. I believe if is because of backward compatibility all the way to 1.0. ALso because the template chrome for pagination chrome are called pagination.php.
That leads me to the next thing I'll mention. You can make a file pagination.php and put it in the html folder of your template. You can see an example of this in the core template protostar. THat's where you would do the CSS or whatever other tricks you want to do to make the pagination do what you want. I think if you work hard enough at it (possibly using javascript or possibly calling that file from a module) you can pretty much achieve whatever you want.
There's a module to do this in Drupal land, but I've been frustrated with the hacks that've been necessary in Wygwam. What is the best way to go about implementing this in such a way that you don't need to totally override the default image handling in ChannelImages/Wygwam?
Assets is a good suggestion, but I believe Devdemon's channel images might be a better fit for the workflow you're suggesting.
http://www.devdemon.com/channel_images/
Clients can add (and see) a caption and more and it's fully integrated with Wygwam and other editors. Devdemon's support is also excellent.
The Assets module from Pixel & Tonic allows you to double-click on the image (or any other file) and add metadata. You then have access to the metadata in your templates.
Check the screenshot: http://pixelandtonic.com/assets
You can also add metadata using the native File Manager. Click the edit icon from the File Manager and you'll see a few fields. You can use the File Entries tag to access it.
http://expressionengine.com/user_guide/modules/file/file_tag.html
I typically use Matrix with one column for the image, one column for the caption, and if a link is needed another column for the link. This of course works best if the image is in a fixed location within your template.
On possible way to accomplish this that I have used is to run some jQuery that looks for images within a certain area, and if they have alt attributes, rewrite the image tag within a tag with a tag inside.
so:
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
$('#page-content > .wrapper img').each(function(){
if($(this).attr('alt') !== undefined && $(this).attr('alt').length > 0){
if(!$(this).parent().hasClass('content-image')){
$(this).replaceWith("<figure class='content-image "+$(this).attr('class')+"'>"+$($('<div></div>').html($(this).clone().attr('class',''))).html()+"<figcaption>"+$(this).attr('alt')+"</figcaption></figure>");
}
}
});
});
will do just that. It's looking within a #page-content div for img tags with alt attributes. And then rewriting it as
<figure><img src='....' .... /><figcaption>This is the text that was in the alt attribute</figcaption></figure>
Soooo, that kinda works. The only caveat is that you had better not use any double-quotes within your alt text, or it will break thangs. Not the cleanest of solutions, but a solution, nonetheless.
I'm new to GWT, and I'm sure this is answered in SO somewhere but I've yet to find
I downloaded the GWT 2.0 eclipse plugin, and was pleased to see it comes with a starter project.
However, I was surprised that when running it, there is an unpleasent flickering...
The text loads without the CSS first
It takes a while untill the select box apears
(If you don't see the flicker, try and press F5 to refresh)
All mature GWT apps seem to have a loader before that but I didn't find an easy, standard way to add it.
It seems this app loads in this order: (correct me please if I mixed it up, its only my guess)
Basic layout HTML,
All JavaScript, and CSS
Runs the logic on the "onload" event (soonest time your compiled javaScript can start - ?)
So I can't programmatically add a loading spinner before GWT was loaded, a bit of a catch 22 for me
Am I missing something basic? is there a best practice way to add that initial spinner?
I was thinking simply adding a div with an animated gif, and in the onload event - hide it.
But I'm sure there is something better.
Let me know if this is a duplicate question
Update: found this related question, not answering mine though...
I've handled this problem before by not using the GWT module to load CSS, but loading it directly in the tag itself. If you do this, the browser will always load the CSS first, even before the GWT JS is loaded.
This means you'll lose a bit of flexibility and speed, but its the only workaround I've used so far.
EDIT: Extra info cause I want the bounty :D
If you do not remove the
<inherits name='com.google.gwt.user.theme.standard.Standard'/> from your module.gwt.xml file, then the GWT standard theme is loaded in the JS file that GWT creates. This JS file loads after the HTML page renders, and injects the CSS after load. Hence the flicker.
To avoid the flicker, you can comment out that line and insert your own stylesheet into the <head> of your HTML file. This ensures your CSS loads before the HTML renders, avoiding any flicker. If you really want the GWT theme, you get it out of the source code.
To use a spinner with GWT is quite easy. One simple way would be to keep it in a div with an id in the HTML file itself. Then, in the onModuleLoad(), simply hide that div by calling RootPanel.get("spinner").setVisible(false);
That should show the spinner till GWT loads itself.
Here's what we do to implement a spinner.
You put something like the following HTML just below the script line that loads your application (ie. the one with nocache.js). e.g.:
<div id="loading">
<div id="loading-msg">
<img src="icons/loading-page.gif" lt="loading">
<span>Loading the application, please wait...</span>
</div>
</div>
Then in your application EntryPoint you reach into the page using the DOM and remove that div. e.g.
final RootPanel loading = RootPanel.get("loading");
if (loading != null) {
DOM.removeChild(RootPanel.getBodyElement(),
loading.getElement());
}
Ehrann: I'm afraid the practice mentioned in the above answers is the only way for now. GWT doesn't provide similar features to show/hide a "loading" frame "on the fly". I guess one of the reason is that this requirement is not so "common" for all GWT users, one person might want a very different style of the "loading" than others. So you have to do that by yourself.
You can have a look at the GXT showcase page (based on GWT too): http://www.extjs.com/explorer/ for how they do that. For the source of it, download Ext GWT 2.1.0 SDK here: http://www.extjs.com/products/gxt/download.php and check the samples/explorer folder after extracting it. For details see the edit below:
EDIT
Check the source code for http://www.extjs.com/examples/explorer.html and you can see a div with id "loading". For each samples (extending Viewport), GXT.hideLoadingPanel(loadingPanelId) is called in onAttach() (the initialization), which hides the loading frame.
Check source code of Viewport here
Check source code of GXT.hideLoadingPanel here
You can do it in a similar way.
You could put an HTML loading message in the host page (use style attributes or embed the style tag in the header to make sure that it's styled), and remove the message once your modules has loaded, e. g. Document.get().getBody() with .setInnerHTML("") or .removeChild(), and then present your application programmatically however you want.
I'm looking into integrating some Telerik Components into our MOSS Installation. I'd figure I would kill a few birds with one stone and work on the Navigation Menu first.
I'm slightly new to SharePoint, and pulling hair at some of it's oddities.
We have some requirements for our Navigation menu:
Security Trimmed
Multi-Level Navigation
As best as I can tell, there doesn't seem to be a way to get security trimming without using SharePoint's out of the box Navigation Settings. Am I wrong?
Is there a way to get these Navigation Settings to go more than two levels deep?
EDITS
I'm using the Global Navigation, located at / > Site Settings > Modify Navigation
Haven't used the Telerik control.
I suspect you should be able to accomplish this with basic properties, something like StaticDisplayLevels="2" with 2 being the number you want.
The security I believe would be handled on your datasource that the control uses.
Again, I haven't used the telerik control so I'm sure it's a bit different, looking at the product info for this control it appears to be a matter of figuring out what the properties are that you need to adjust. There must be some documentation that came with it?
Savageguy is correct that you modify this on the datasource, an example:
<PublishingNavigation:PortalSiteMapDataSource
ID="MainNavigationDataSource"
runat="server"
EnableViewState="true"
SiteMapProvider="GlobalNavSiteMapProvider"
StartingNodeOffset="0"
ShowStartingNode="false" />
and then you can use any sort of control (databound) to render your menu. I´m using a repeater for my menu:
<asp:Repeater runat="server" ID="MenuRepeater"
DataSourceID="MainNavigationDataSource">
you are not required to use any other components other than SharePoint Menu but you have to add a small piece of script in the body tag:
< body onload="javascript:if (typeof(_spBodyOnLoadWrapper) != 'undefined') _spBodyOnLoadWrapper();">
