I wonder if we should move the page contents to another database table instead of putting them in the preferences? You would only need an extra form to handle CRUD ops. It would make translation of these local pages easier too. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12806 --- Comment #4 from Jonathan Druart <jonathan.druart@biblibre.com> --- Why do you want to add these files into the Koha src? What append if a library has already created these files (pages.pl and pages.tt)? I know the answer: Boom :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

If I remember correctly that would it possible for IT-librarians to activate CMS-mode without having to ask the admin to manhandle any files on the server. "Boom" should be avoided of course :) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Why do you want to add these files into the Koha src?
Jonathan: The "Koha as a CMS" as it has existed in the wiki and manual (Appendix E) is essentially an user-driven hack. There has been discussion before http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=7840 about integrating it. This is a feature I use a bit, and when I wrote a small KPZ plugin to provide the WYSIWYG feature for CMS add/edit window, it seemed work well. However, apparently people who wanted to use it had trouble with the pages.tt / pages.pl hand edits.
What append if a library has already created these files (pages.pl and pages.tt)? I know the answer: Boom :)
So, this patch was the next step to make user adoption more seamless. I assume, that if @Marcel's suggestion in included and the pages namespace is re-defined, then there should be no reason for a BLAST? :-) -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

Indranil: Interesting patch! I wonder if we should move the page contents to another database table instead of putting them in the preferences? You would only need an extra form to handle CRUD ops. It would make translation of these local pages easier too.
Marcel: I think I can manage that! Right now I had written a simple KPZ to take care of things on that side. I'm sure I can re-factor that. https://github.com/l2c2technologies/KohaCMS/releases/tag/1.2.2 -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.

We might want to add lots more IDs and classes so that libraries can have more control of what they hide/show on these extra pages. Most libraries we have don't want to see news, quotes, login boxes, etc on their "pages". ::: koha-tmpl/opac-tmpl/bootstrap/en/modules/pages.tt @@ +45,5 @@
+ </div> + </div> + [% END %] + + [% IF ( page_test ) %]<div id="opacmainuserblock">[% page_test %]</div>[% END %]
Might a better variable name be "page_text" rather than "page_test"? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
http://bugs.koha-community.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=12806 --- Comment #11 from Viktor Sarge <viktor.sarge@regionhalland.se> --- I haven't written an RFC for it yet but we are very much wanting to add a proper way to do this that also gives you navigation for the pages. We are thinking about doing it this way: * Add something under "Tools" where you create the pages and put them in the right hierarchy. When you create a page you are also prompted to fill out all the same areas as opac-main but done with TinyMCE. * Navigation in Opac is automatically created to mirror the above mentioned hierarchy. I'm suggesting first level to be tabs like the one Owen blogged about at http://www.myacpl.org/koha/new-opac-theme-bootstrap/ Level 2,3 etc would perhaps be best as left hand navigation on larger screens. * Move all existing html in sysprefs into the new system and delete the sysprefs that require coding skills. * Add a way to create standalone "widgets" that can be displayed on multiple pages. Either html content or things that run code (like exposing content form RSS-streams or data from reports) I'd say the best solution for storing the necessary information would be a new table like html_content. The table opac_news mostly does what is needed but would have to be renamed. A new general purpose one seems better and then we could a few columns like "type" classification or "location" The thing that both I and the developer I'm talking with the most here have to look into is URLs. We would like nice looking URLs like "cgi-bin/koha/our-libraries.pl" instead of "cgi-bin/koha/page.pl?name=our-libraries". I'm not quite shure what the best approach for that might be. All input would be valuable and I guess I should really file an RFC and create a separate thread for this. The work on this might start during july/august but currently he is working on history for MARC records. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
