Is it possible to bundle up collection-types in Strapi?
What I mean by this:
For example, our website has a Media&Downloads page. This page consists of several categories (Logos, Poster, Press-Releases etc.)
All of these categories are reflected as own collection-type inside Strapi.
Now one request of the editors' is, that they want all these collection-types regarding certain pages bundled up. Inside Strapi, you would then on the collection-type navigation(left side) only have the "Press & Media" type, and when you click on it, it acts like an accordion and all the real collection-types are being displayed.

I'm setting up a P2 themed (using Houston child theme) Wordpress. I want to accomplish the following but after hours and hours of searching I cannot figure out how to do this even though it seems like something that would be common.
Ideally, I would like a tag list in the sidebar with checkboxes for each tag. Only posts that match checked tags are displayed and it updates with Ajax rather than a page reload. It saves what you have checked to the user profile (page will require login).
I would settle for simply having a tag list/cloud that would update with Ajax if I could also have links that would display multiple tags. It's no problem if I have to hard code these tag-grouping links.
Basically I want users to control what posts they are interested in reading, the assumption is no one will be reading every post, just the tags that pertain to them.
The best I was able to find was this plugin:
Cat + Tag Filter
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cat-tag-filter-widget/
And configuring it for checkboxes on tag. It doesn't reload with Ajax or remember what the user selected, but it does take you to a tag filtered page that you could bookmark.
there are tutorials on the web about gow to create index.html, css file and template.xml that contain placeholders. ok, i got it, it's simple. but i need a template that has some different views. for example:
-all pages have a topmenu, header, left sidebar, mainarea and a footer but:
-first page has no header .topmenu after which sidebar, mainarea and footer comes.
-second page has sidebar moved from left to right
-third page has four blocks (blocks for special offers) instead of mainarea.
as far as i can see, i need to create three standalone templates with unique set of placeholders for each template. because i can't see the way to change laarge mainarea placeholder with four placeholders for offers blocks on some pages. dynamically.
is there if-statements in joomla templates to simply determine a document id to view four placeholders instead of mainarea. or to not show header on the main page (f.e. doc. id="mainpage")
but i want it to be selectable like:
-this page has first case of that template (index_1.php)
-and that page has a second case of the same template (index_2.php)
like a selectbox.
is that possible?
I will make this an answer as opposed to a comment since I believe it will do what you are looking for.
Once your articles are setup and your links to them are established (the site has the info on it you're looking for), you can create the modules containing the data that you want shown from time to time.
Go to the module manager - on the right you should see 'module assignment' or something along the lines of 'display this module on the following pages'; you can then pick which pages you want the module to show on. You can specify all pages, none, specific pages, however you want.
This will enable you to show them only where needed however you like.
You can ALSO do this programatically inside the module (if you do custom HTML and use an extension like Sourcerer to add PHP to the module) with PHP should you want a little more flexibility, but just choosing the pages to show on should work for what you're doing.
I have searched the net for a solution but can't seem to get anywhere.
My page (php) is loading with one url (let's say www.mysite.com)
in the page several search options on music (albums) can be done and the tracks are shown. (without refreshing the page). the info comes from a database.
So the url stays the same.
In this search process the facebook meta tags (description, url, title) stay the same also because I never reload the page, I only load content into div's.
I would like to be able to 'like' the album, and backlink to it. So I have created the function to load the album by using the url: www.mysite.com?album=12345
I can show a popup with this url to share this.
So, if you go to this url, the content is automatically loaded based on the url parameter.
And on this spot (where you can see the url with the parameter ?album=12345) I would like to show the 'like' button as well. (I generated the url, so I use this in the code:)
echo '<div style="overflow:visable" class="fb-like" data-href="http://mysite.com/?album='.$albumid.'" data-send="false" data-width="300" data-show-faces="false">?</div>';
it works so far... (after I added the parse code to enable the button)
However the like button takes the default meta tags description and title etc.
Not particular on this album or artist - so it's not unique.
Note: if I remove the meta[property=og:url] from the header I can make the button backlink to the right url with the ?album parameter. Otherwise it would go back to the default root of the site mysite.com (this does make the lint tool give an error on the missing meta)
I have tried to add into this same function something like:
$("meta[property=og\\:url]").attr("content", "http://mysite.com/?album=<?php echo $albumid; ?>");
$("meta[property=og\\:title]").attr("content", "<?php echo $artistname; ?>");
$("meta[property=og\\:description]").attr("content", "<?php echo $albumname; ?>");
I did this so the meta tags will be changed, just to let the like button show the right description etc. However this doesn't work.
I understand that facebook scrapes the page (I used the lint tool etc.) but I will never executes javascript, so the meta tags wil stay as default (when first loading the page)
What can I do to make a unique like button, with it's own description (albumname etc) without making a html page for each one of them (millions of albums in the database...)
I hope it makes sense.
I can't seem to figure this one out, help please :-)
Based on the comments below I used the following solution:
you should create the right fb meta tags when the url (with the params ?alb_id=12345) is opened.
That's enough for the like button to do its job.
Your logic is fine, up to the point where you're setting the meta tags using jquery.
They should be set using PHP. As you can imagine the scraper won't execute the jquery, but if it's fed the already PHP-customized meta tags it will use them (as provided).
Just have the og:tags prepared server-side, depending on the albumId requested, and it should work. It might not work right away, I remember there used to be occasional caching issues with the scraper before.
In short, index.php?album=123 will send a different set of og:tags to the scraper than say index.php?album=321. Just set them up server-side.
<meta property="og:title" content="<?php echo $artistTitle; ?>"/>

You can’t, because Open Graph objects are URLs (resp. are represented/identified by their URL).
One URL == one Open Graph object.
But where’s the problem in having one URL for each album? Since it all works using parameters, it’s not like you have to create a page for each album URL manually …
I'm trying to switch magento store views by url/href.
I created a default store view, with a cms where a block gets loaded
which contains a landing page where you should choose your language. After
it is chosen it appends the language code to the url and sets a cookie.
I created a second store view, with the base url http://myshop.dev/en/.
So if the user has chosen "England" he gets redirected to http://myshop.dev/en/, but the
english shop doesn't get called.
Instead the message appears "There was no 404 CMS page configured or found."
I'm quite new to magento.
Not very well worded, but sounds like you just want to create a store switcher drop down.
If so, have a look in app/design/frontend/base/default/template/page/switch/languages.phtml for an example.
I'd like to add a new tab to the 'catalog->manage products->product information' page in the admin. Underneath the 'images' tab, I'd like to add a new tab for video, with a simple text input for adding a video url, which I can then grab for the frontend.
Anyone any ideas where the files are that I need to edit? I've been looking for the last couple hours with no joy. I found the list of current options in Mage_Catalog_Model_Resource_Eav_Mysql4_Setup but can't figure out how to add to them...
Seems it gets some from Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Product_Edit_Tabs. If I copy one of the tab sections here and change the title to Video, I can get it to display in the tabs on the left. But how do I then add the options for it?
What you are trying to do, from the sounds of it, is to create a custom field and add it to your catalog data. The good news is that you don't need to muck around in the PHP for that.
Head to Catalog -> Attributes -> Manage Attributes and create a new attribute for yourself called "Video URL" (or something to that effect). This will probably be a text field, and you may want to hide it from comparison on the frontend of the site (select "No" for all those boxes at the bottom of the form).
Once you've created an attribute, you will need to add it to an attribute set. If all your products are of one "type", and if you didn't create any other attribute sets, this should be only one step. Head to Catalog -> Attributes -> Manage Attribute Sets and create a "New Group" called "Video" and drag your new video url attribute into it. Save the attribute set and you should now have your new tab.
The only complication from what I read in your post could be positioning it underneath the images tab. Magento adds several tabs statically (the long way, in the PHP) and doesn't generally obey ordering of the tab groups. Consider the time tradeoff.
Hope that helps. Thanks,
Joe
Per your other comments, for the URLs a simple attribute would work but files would tend to be more difficult. To add a custom tab, as you said, you can edit (or in the case of a plugin, override) Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Catalog_Product_Edit_Tabs::_prepareLayout and add your tab. You'll need to add a block or template to display your tab contents.
After that, you'll need to store the data somewhere. Looking in Adminhtml/controllers/ProductController, you should be able to hook into the catalog_product_prepare_save event to get data from $event->getRequest() and push it onto the product or save another entity as necessary.
I'm not sure how well file saving semantics would work on a product, so you may want to do your own data storage in the extension and then provide something like a getVideoForProduct method to retrieve it.
Then the only thing left to do is modify the catalog/product/view.phtml template file to include your thumbs and create a controller in your extension to provide a modal w/ the video (or do it in JS).
I know that's a bit of a general answer, but it's the rough path you would need to take for tabs. Let me know if any specific part of that is unclear.
Thanks,
Joe
