| 14:29 | owen | Okay, so patch does not apply... then what? |
| 14:31 | gmcharlt | owen: referring to my message? as I said, a rebase and resubmit will likely take care of it |
| 15:03 | owen | Okay, gmcharlt, second try is on its way to you |
| 22:58 | jaron | hi, I'm adding a local preference and need to access it from a template. it is basically for a page like the opac-main page but with different content. |
| 22:59 | how would I get at the local preference content? I created an apache scriptalias to a script very much like opac-main.pl and template like opac-main.tmpl except replaced OpacMainUserBlock with the name of my local preference variable. | |
| 22:59 | but nothing is showing up :( | |
| 23:00 | any ideas? | |
| 23:16 | gmcharlt | jaron: not ideal, but you could make a local change to get_template_and_user in C4/Auth.pm |
| 23:17 | jaron | gmcharlt: how are local preferences usually used from within templates. not templates have access to local use preferences? |
| 23:18 | gmcharlt | jaron: there isn't a defined way of doing it except by modifying get_template_and_user() |
| 23:18 | jaron: one could add a column systempreferences to indicate if a preference should be automatically exported to the templates | |
| 23:18 | add a column *to* systempreferences | |
| 23:19 | jaron | ah, ok. i'll see what I can do. |
| 23:26 | gmcharlt++ | |
| 23:27 | gmcharlt: easy enough when I knew where to look :) | |
| 23:27 | gmcharlt | yeah, that usually 3/4 of the battle :) |
| 23:32 | jaron | gmcharlt: I'm trying to make it so that a librarian can change content on some additions pages through the system preferences. Mostly static content but can still change every so often. right now I'm creating a script alias in apache, an opac-page.pl script, an opac-page.tmpl, and a system preference for each page. any easier way you can think of to force koha to be a little CMS for a few pages? |
| 23:32 | s/additions/additional/ | |
| 23:35 | gmcharlt | jaron: are the templates meant to be edited directly; or are they just containers for information stored in the sysprefs? |
| 23:36 | jaron | templates (basically the opac-main.tmpl right now) used to hold info in sysprefs just like OpacMainUserBlock is used right now |
| 23:37 | gmcharlt: i just want a few additional pages that'll do the same thing as happens on the opac-main page--take a bit of content and fit it into a place in a template | |
| 23:37 | gmcharlt | gotcha |
| 23:38 | one way to do it is to define a new table containing a code and html_snippet columns | |
| 23:39 | write a little script that references the code | |
| 23:39 | opac-page.pl&page_id=<code> | |
| 23:40 | and add a bit to get_template_and_user() to scan that new table | |
| 23:40 | and add a template var for each one (e.g., custom_html_snippet_<code>) | |
| 23:40 | if you want to use the snippet in an existing page | |
| 23:41 | that way, whenever you add a new snippet, you don't have to add a new syspref | |
| 23:41 | jaron | i'm getting you. my perl's rusty but I think I can swing that. :) |
| 23:41 | right | |
| 23:43 | gmcharlt | another way might be to clone the editable help system |
| 23:43 | and let user create arbitrary static HTML pages | |
| 23:47 | jaron | i like the parameter idea. It seems like I could still use local sysprefs which are chosen based on an incoming param. |
| 00:01 | gmcharlt: awesome. it worked! :) | |
| 00:02 | gmcharlt++ | |
| 00:02 | needs some work but basically works | |
