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 |

Okay, gmcharlt, second try is on its way to you |

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 |
|
jaron |
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 |
|
jaron |
but nothing is showing up :( |
| 23:00 |
|
jaron |
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 |
|
gmcharlt |
jaron: one could add a column systempreferences to indicate if a preference should be automatically exported to the templates |
| 23:18 |
|
gmcharlt |
add a column *to* systempreferences |
| 23:19 |
|
jaron |
ah, ok. i'll see what I can do. |
| 23:26 |

| 23:27 |
|
jaron |
gmcharlt: easy enough when I knew where to look :) |
| 23:27 |
|
gmcharlt |
yeah, that usually 3/4 of the battle :) |
| 23:32 |

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? |

| 23:35 |
|
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 |
|
jaron |
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 |
|
gmcharlt |
one way to do it is to define a new table containing a code and html_snippet columns |
| 23:39 |
|
gmcharlt |
write a little script that references the code |
| 23:39 |
|
gmcharlt |
opac-page.pl&page_id=<code> |
| 23:40 |
|
gmcharlt |
and add a bit to get_template_and_user() to scan that new table |
| 23:40 |
|
gmcharlt |
and add a template var for each one (e.g., custom_html_snippet_<code>) |
| 23:40 |
|
gmcharlt |
if you want to use the snippet in an existing page |
| 23:41 |
|
gmcharlt |
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 |
|
jaron |
right |
| 23:43 |
|
gmcharlt |
another way might be to clone the editable help system |
| 23:43 |
|
gmcharlt |
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 |
|
jaron |
gmcharlt: awesome. it worked! :) |
| 00:02 |

jaron |
needs some work but basically works |
