Bingo that works thanks for the help

Re: [chris] news content or pdf

Fri, 09 Oct 2009 11:29:12 -0700

Ok that did not work but I think we are close.

This is in the heading to display the new articles on the right hand side

  
  require_once "/home/chsm00/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

  list($in_the_newsRecords, $in_the_newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'in_the_news',
  ));

?>

Here is the header code for displaying the details of the article

  
  require_once "/home/chsm00/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";

  list($in_the_newsSelectedRecord, $in_the_newsMetaData) = getRecords(array(
    'tableName'   => 'in_the_news',
    'where'       => whereRecordNumberInUrl(1),
    'limit'       => '1',
  ));
  $in_the_newsRecord = @$in_the_newsSelectedRecord[0]; // get first record

  // show error message if no matching record is found
  if (!$in_the_newsRecord) {
    print "Record not found!";
    exit;
  }

?>

For the list of articles I have the code you provided before works great by the way.

 
 
       
        
       
        
       
 
        
 
       
      
 
 
    

      No records were found!

Then to display the details of the most current content written article on the right I have

Alright I have a follow up to that questions. The client wants it so when you go to the news page the current article is open to the left of the list. How do I script that so it skips the ones that are only pdfs and show the most recent one they wrote using the content box.

Re: [chris] news content or pdf

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 14:36:36 -0700

Thank you that did the trick. One issue that I found was when you clicked on the article to the details page the listing of all the news items went away and all that was left was the one related to the details page. Is there a way I can have both a list view and details view showing at the same time?

news content or pdf

Tue, 06 Oct 2009 11:25:30 -0700

Hello all I hope you can help with my problem.

A client wants there news page to have a list of all the stories on the side linking to the details of the story. That is easy the problem comes when all they do is link to a pdf in the uploads area. Is there an if else command that would have it link to the details page if they write in the content WYSIWYG area if not then link to the PDF?

Thank you for your time.

Re: [Dave] CMS Builder - Roadmap & Feature Requests (post feature requests here)

Wed, 09 Apr 2008 12:11:55 -0700

For example we work with many charities They use forms like, sign up to RSVP for our golf tournament. Then the next month it will be for a silent auction, ect... The form just sends what they fill out to an email address. I guess that it could send to a new database field called RSVP and they could look in the CMS to see the list.

Thanks for asking Dave

Re: [Dave] CMS Builder - Roadmap & Feature Requests (post feature requests here)

Wed, 09 Apr 2008 11:14:32 -0700

Hey Dave. from what you said is coming I like. I would add the ability to create a form would be on my list. Pretty much 100% of the sites I build have a form on them. Some are for just one event and when that is over it needs to be changed for the next one coming up, so it would really help if they could do all that.

Re: [Dave] CMS Builder Menu & Screen Resolution (post your feedback)

I would say the left side menu makes sense. I have had clients not like how this drop down menu works as it stands.

Re: [Dave] grouping list results

Wed, 02 Apr 2008 11:54:03 -0700

Hey Dave I knew there was some way to do that. To bad I did it the hard way [mad] I used a page view and called each one of them up by record num. Works, and looks the way I need it to so everything is fine.

Thanks again

grouping list results

Tue, 01 Apr 2008 14:54:43 -0700

First I need to give a huge thanks to Dave and all the staff here for the wonderful support.

Now on to my question, I need to list out the standings of the football league. Pretty easy there are only 8 teams 4 in the east 4 in the west. My problem comes when I need them listed out I need the 4 teams ranked then a break the word East then the other 4 teams ranked.

I am wondering if the way we were displaying the players with that could be changed for this reason. My big hang up is how to have it pause, then have it put or I hard code it in, the word East or West then continue listing. I though about adding east and west to the cms list but I need that to be in a different font size and color then the rest of the listing.

Re: [Dave] custom page view

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 16:23:30 -0700

Trust me Tom I am the more confused one. You are talking to a guy that has a portfolio full of Illustrator work so yeah my job description has changed a lot. I got your message at the same time as I posted my update. If you go to
http://www.ragefootball.com/dancerPage.php?96/
you will see the slide show in action.
On dancerPage.php I have this code

I could write it like this if you think it would help

src="http://www.ragefootball.com/test/imagerotator.swf"
width="275"
height="418"
allowscriptaccess="always"
allowfullscreen="true"
flashvars="height=418&width=275&file=http://www.ragefootball.com/test/imagelist.php.xml&transition=fade"
/>

With the imagelist.php.xml looking like this

       require_once "/home/ragefoot/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";
      $options = array(); 
      $options['tableName'] = 'player'; 
      $options['recordNum'] = '90';  
      $options['where'] = '';  
      $record = getRecord($options);
    ?>

	
	  
		

http://www.ragefootball.com/cmsAdmin/uploads/Dancers/

So that gets to the point I am at.
you can view the xml file output by going here
http://www.ragefootball.com/test/imagelist.php.xml
I tried to place dancerPageXML.php?
in the xml file at the $options['where'] = ''; and got this error "Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STRING in /home/ragefoot/public_html/test/imagelist.php.xml on line 6"

I know we are close Dave I can feel it or I would have told the client not that can't be done LOL.

Thanks for your time
Chris

Alright been messing with the code

       require_once "/home/ragefoot/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";
      $options = array(); 
      $options['tableName'] = 'player'; 
      $options['recordNum'] = '90';  
      $options['where'] = '';  
      $record = getRecord($options);
    ?>

	
	  
		

http://www.ragefootball.com/cmsAdmin/uploads/Dancers/

Will get me the image to load.

I had to tell it a recordNum to get it to do that. So now I need to figure out how to pass a number to it and have it display the matching ones.

Thanks

Re: [Dave] custom page view

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 13:09:31 -0700

Hey Dave

Let me try to explain the structure of the CMS better.
I made a Section called player ( now looking back I should have named it staff) That is where everyone is listed dancers,players,coaches, and office personal. It has there name hight weight ect.. all there bio information. Inside that Section is an upload box named dancer_slide_show. That is where I want them to upload only the pictures they want to show in the slide show.

So when they click the read more on a dancer it pulls up the dancerPage.php That contains the flash file slide show on it and with any luck starts displaying the matching girls photos.

So I need in the page view in the xml for it to match the dancers personal entry in the players section so it displays just the pictures uploaded to just her.

If your still thinking English is my second or third language [:P] I will try to rephrase my question again. if you could write the syntactic of how I would define
$options['where'] = to check the field dancer_slide_show = the name field That in my little knowledge of php should be how it can match up the pictures uploaded to the girl.

Thanks
Chris

I have been working on two sites with CMSB http://www.clikquikcoupons.com is one of them. The menus on the left are all being pulled and created from the CMSB. The center, ( if anyone can give me a tip on if statement to hide the click here image when they don't have 4 stories that would be great) the banners at the top are a flash file feed by an xml file created by CMSB. Every page of the site is in CMSB.

Thanks to Interactive tools

When my client of the other site stops making changes I will list it here.

custom page view

Thu, 20 Mar 2008 09:27:45 -0700

Hello All,

Alright I am close to having this worked out I am sure it is just a matter of formating it correctly. here is my code for the xml file

       require_once "/home/ragefoot/public_html/cmsAdmin/lib/viewer_functions.php";
      $options = array();                // NOTE: see online documentation for more details on these options
      $options['tableName'] = 'player'; // (REQUIRED) MySQL tablename to list record from. Example: "article";
      $options['recordNum'] = '';        // (optional) Record number to display.  Example: "1"; Defaults to number on end of url, then 1
      $options['where']     = "dancer_slide_show = 'name'";        // (ADVANCED) MySQL WHERE conditions to use INSTEAD of recordNum to look up record. Example: "fieldname = 'value'"
      $record = getRecord($options);
    ?>

	
	  
		
			http://www.ragefootball.com/cmsAdmin/uploads/Dancers/

I get "Page Viewer (player): MySQL Error: Unknown column 'dancer_slide_show' in 'where clause'"

With that I am sure all I need to do is define the field dancer_slide_show with a value of just one dancer like her name so it shows just the pictures uploaded in her entry. because the xml file is a separate file I am not sure it can look up the url and get the number. Let me know if any of you smart people can shed some light on this.

Thanks
Chris

Sorry to leave you hanging Dave,
I added that code to each page it's self at the top.

Re: [Dave] showing if the article is hidden or not

Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:16:02 -0700

I changed it and nothing bad happened but it did not fix the problem. I went and changed the php header from
\n"; ?>

to this

and that fixed the problem, now did I mess anything in CMS by doing that?

showing if the article is hidden or not

Tue, 18 Mar 2008 11:14:33 -0700

Hello All, I have a what I hope is a simple question.
The client is wanting to know if when they are looking at the CMS and see a list of news article. If along with the title they can see if the article is hidden or not instead of going into the modify and looking there.

Also before I forget has anyone else seen Â showing up when they use the wysiwyg editor. I think, I just need to change the character set. Would that be a per page thing or something in the cms system files.

Thanks
Chris

list view more than one at a time

Fri, 14 Mar 2008 10:46:01 -0700

Hello all, been doing pretty good in CMS but today I ran into a problem. I need to display 3 results per row. I tried just removing the
still they all listed in a row one wide.
I then created a table to house the 3 ( yes I know div tags are the new thing but I have been doing tables to long to give up on them). By placing the before the start of the table and at the end of the main table they do display 3 across like I want but each row is 3 of the same data. and when I move the ?php endforeach ?> or add more it just returns line errors. please help I am sure it is a simple problem.

Thanks

Hello all, Things have been going along great so far thanks to all of your wonderful advice.
I have a question a client using the cms has a list of all there staff, coaches, dancers, players ect... how can they inside the cms list view, sort them? They want for example the head coach to be at the top. I don't see the arrows so they can drag and drop them in any order. Is this possible?
