FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:

If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.

Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package silverstripe-content-blocks

Silverstripe-Content-Blocks (previous: Silverstripe-Section-Module)

Split your page content into manageable sections/blocks of content, each with their own template.

Create compelling and unique pages

This module gives you the option to create your content, in little blocks, instead of just one big content area.

When the module is installed, a "Blocks" tab will be added to all pages. The blocks tab holds a GridField, that allows you to create as many blocks of content as you would like. Each block of content can have it's own template assigned. The module commes with a set of standard templates.

You can easily create your own block templates and even your own block DataObjects with unique fields. This makes it very easy for content editors to create pages with lots of variation, without having to know HTML, fiddle around with tables and so on. Create your own block templates and/or extend the Block DataObject to create:

Image lists (simple gallery)
Employee listings
Product listings
and much more

Version compatibility

Tested on Silverstripe 3.1.2

Installation instructions

Put this module under the root folder of site, named content-blocks.
Add the following code to your themes/your_design/templates/Layout/Page.ss where you want the content blocks to be rendered:

Or you can ask for a single Block to render via it's ID (replace 5 with your ID):

install the following dependent module(s)
- GridField Extensions https://github.com/ajshort/silverstripe-gridfieldextensions/
- Better buttons for GridField by unclecheese https://github.com/unclecheese/silverstripe-gridfield-betterbuttons

Or use Composer:

run sitename.com/dev/build?flush=all
The module will copy content-blocks/templates/BlockTemplates to themes/your_design/templates/BlockTemplates, should this fail, please copy the files manually.
The module will copy content-blocks/css/sections.css to themes/your_design/block.css, should this fail, please copy the file manually.

Usage and customization:

add your own templates to themes/your_design/templates/BLcokTemplates, they need to have the extension .ss and delete any unwanted templates (there is full example set of fixed width and fluid width templates included in the module)
allways run dev/build?flush=1 after adding templates
remember to ?flush=1 after modification of templates

IDEAS

Save available templates in database (enum field) - create on dev/build or use template manifest
Build in template generator
Form blocks
Better previews (C/P from design)
Perhaps add foundation templates as a suggested composer requirement (and other CSS frameworks)
