Bit of a beginner here and this issue has been causing me a headache for over a day. I'm using userfrosting as a framework, with the usual twig files for the web pages.
I'm trying to include a datepicker (bootstrap-datepicker.js hasn't worked, neither is the current iteration using jquery-ui) in a form in a twig - but no matter what I do, I can't get it to work!
Here's the basic setup:
{% block head %}
{{ parent() }}
<script src="{{site.uri.js}}/jquery-1.11.2.js"></script>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="{{site.uri.js}}/custom.js" ></script>
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
.... {{boring stuff missed out}}
<form class="form-inline" role="form">
.... {{boring stuff missed out}}
<div class="form-group row">
<label for="datepicker" class="col-sm-3 form-control-label">Subject Date:</label>
<div class="col-sm-6">
<input type="date" class="form-control" id="datepicker" />
</div>
</div>
.... {{boring stuff missed out}}
</form>
.... {{boring stuff missed out}}
{% endblock %}
{% block javascripts %}
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
$("#datepicker").datepicker();
});
</script>
{% endblock %}
The box is on the page, you can type a date into it etc, but nothing appears when you click on it (there should be a calendar appearing.)
Anyone have any ideas? I'm at a total loss. I've tried various versions, locally and (as you can see, currently) on a CDN, but nothing works. I'm sure it's probably something basic as I'm not an experienced web dev or anything, but any advice or working examples would be gratefully received!
Uh! facepalm
Well, after some digging and serious consideration of the inspector output (thanks CTRL-SHIFT-I!) it turns out to be a simple case of script loading order and multiple scripts being loaded.
I didn't realise twig loads a whole bucketload of scripts on top of what I ask it to load in the template I was creating. Only after seeing the inspector output for the page did I see that I was trying to load two different versions of jQuery and my own custom script was being loaded out of order - I was loading them here:
{% block head %}
{{ parent() }}
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="{{site.uri.js}}/custom.js" ></script>
{% endblock %}
that block should be reserved for stylesheets. Instead, I should be loading them here:
{% block page_scripts %}
<script src="https://code.jquery.com/ui/1.11.4/jquery-ui.min.js"></script>
<script src="{{site.uri.js}}/custom.js"></script>
{% endblock %}
... so that they are loaded AFTER all the default Bootstrap and userfrosting scripts.
https://jqueryui.com/datepicker/ uses type="text" for the input field. When I google the matter it seems that type="date" has at least previously caused problems.
In short: I would try changing type="date" to type="text".

I have a plugin called jekyll-spaceship in Jekyll - It helps me to use video feature (not available in Markdown): ! [Video] (https://vimeo.com/633912445?height=500)
Everything works perfectly on post page.
But in home page, I am listing posts like this:
<div id="main" class="site-main">
<div id="primary" class="content-area">
<div id="content" class="site-content" role="main">
{% for post in paginator.posts %}
<header class="entry-header">
<h1 class="entry-title">
{{post.title}}
</h1>
</header>
<div class="entry-content">{{ post.content }}</div>
{% endfor %}
</div></div>
</div>
And, this event turns it into an image. So I can't use the plugin feature. I think {% for post in paginator.posts %} turns it into normal Markdown.
How can I fix this problem?
By the way, I am using jekyll-paginate-v2 for paginating but doesn't matter, its the same like normal Jekyll
I think this issue has been addressed and fixed, you can refer to spaceship with paginate-v2, and please try again with the latest version.
In old-style Laravel blade templated we used to use #section('section-name') in the following way:
{{-- h1para.blade.php --}}
<h1>
#section('heading')
Heading from Template
#endsection
</h1>
<p>
#yield('details')
</p>
And then extend that template with:
{{-- content.blade.php --}}
#extends('h1para')
#section('details')
Content from content page
#endsection
In the above, my rendered HTML output would look like the following, because the "missing" 'heading' section in the extending file means that we default back to the content in the template:
<h1>Heading from Template</h1>
<p>Content from content page</p>
But in the new components way of doing things, I do:
{{-- .../components/h1para.blade.php --}}
<h1>{{ $heading }}</h1>
<p>{{ $slot }}</p>
In case you haven't gathered, the question is: how do I set a default value for a slot's contents, such that if it isn't supplied in the extending component/template, it falls back to that default?
(I've done my searches, but haven't been able to find the same question asked before)
EDIT:
I should add that I've seen the solution (in the Laravel documentation):
<h1>{{ $heading ?? 'Default Heading Here' }}</h1>
But this seems only to be appropriate if the default value is a short easy to manage string. If the default is a long stream of HTML, then it wouldn't work for my needs.
EDIT 2:
Just to reiterate: the whole point of the question is that the default content could be a long stream of HTML. Solving the problem by passing in a string (be that formatted as HTML or not) wouldn't work for my real-world needs.
I think the solution is this:
{{-- .../component/template.blade.php --}}
<div>
#if (isset($heading))
{{ $heading }}
#else
<h1>Default Heading<span class="subhead">default subheadin and lots of other html content</span></h1>
#endif
<p>{{ $slot }}</p>
</div>
It's not super elegant, but I think it's the only solution. Anyone else have a better answer, I'd love to hear it.
If you pass data like:
<x-h1para header="<span>Header content</span>">
<div>Default slot content here</div>
</x-h1para>
You can display in your component like:
<div>
<h1>{!! $heading ?? 'Default Heading Here' !!}</h1>
{{ $slot }}
</div>
I have this problem I want to inject html into markdown file (blog post) but It's little bit long so I want to have plugin with parameters because it will change and I may add it multiple times. When search inject html I only found that you can insert html directly into markdown files, but I want to have one tag that will do this for me, to not duplicate the code, it will also be easier to update if Codepen decide to change the embed code.
This is the code I want to add, Codepen embed demo with button:
<div id="codepen">
<button class="btn" onclick="document.body.classList.toggle('sticky')">Dock</button>
<iframe height="265" scrolling="no" title="in browser sql terminal"
src="//codepen.io/jcubic/embed/dVBaRm/?height=265&theme-id=dark&default-tab=result"
frameborder="no" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true">
See the Pen <a href='https://codepen.io/jcubic/pen/dVBaRm/'>in browser sql terminal</a> by Jakub T. Jankiewicz
(<a href='https://codepen.io/jcubic'>#jcubic</a>) on <a href='https://codepen.io'>CodePen</a>.
</iframe>
</div>
I want to have params username and id (maybe also title and full name), what is the easiest way to create such plugin and how to use in my markdown file?
You don't need a plugin to do this.
You can use a Jekyll include.
example_page.html
---
layout: page
title: Codepen include example
codepen:
author: jcubic
name: Jakub T. Jankiewicz
id: dVBaRm
title: "in browser sql terminal"
---
{% include codepen.html %}
_includes/codepen.html
{% if page.codepen %}
{% assign c = page.codepen %}
<div id="codepen">
<button class="btn" onclick="document.body.classList.toggle('sticky')">Dock</button>
<iframe height="265" scrolling="no" title="{{ c.title }}"
src="//codepen.io/{{ c.author }}/embed/{{ c.id }}/?height=265&theme-id=dark&default-tab=result"
frameborder="no" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true">
See the Pen <a href='https://codepen.io/{{ c.author }}/pen/{{ c.id }}/'>in browser sql terminal</a> by {{ c.name }}
(<a href='https://codepen.io/{{ c.author }}'>#{{ c.author }}</a>) on <a href='https://codepen.io'>CodePen</a>.
</iframe>
</div>
{% endif %}
You can also use a parametrized include.
{% include codepen_param.html
author="jcubic"
name="Jakub T. Jankiewicz"
id="dVBaRm"
title="in browser sql terminal"
%}
_includes/codepen_param.html
{% assign pen = include %}
<div id="codepen">
<button class="btn" onclick="document.body.classList.toggle('sticky')">Dock</button>
<iframe height="265" scrolling="no" title="{{ pen.title }}"
src="//codepen.io/{{ pen.author }}/embed/{{ pen.id }}/?height=265&theme-id=dark&default-tab=result"
frameborder="no" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="true">
See the Pen <a href='https://codepen.io/{{ pen.author }}/pen/{{ pen.id }}/'>in browser sql terminal</a> by {{ pen.name }}
(<a href='https://codepen.io/{{ pen.author }}'>#{{ pen.author }}</a>) on <a href='https://codepen.io'>CodePen</a>.
</iframe>
</div>
Like this, you can call any number of pens from your page.
Using Lektor, trying to determine how to list the most recent three blogs by published date on the main landing (root) page. I'm feeling like I should be using a macro, but I don't understand how to pass the Blogs to the page template, or if this is an example of a flowblock? I've added a section like the following to the page.ini:
[children]
model = blog-post
order_by = -pub_date, title
but can't seem to loop through them in the template (no error is thrown but doesn't iterate). Quite lost, but still consuming the documentation.
I ended up using the site.query class functionality directly in the layout template (based on the Blog quickstart).
{% for blogpost in site.query('/blog').order_by('pub_date').limit(3) %}
<div class="post col-md-4">
<div class="post-details">
<div class="post-meta d-flex justify-content-between">
<div class="date">{{ blogpost.pub_date }}</div>
</div><a href="post.html"> <!-- fix this one shortly -->
<h3 class="h4">{{ blogpost.title }}</h3></a>
<p class="text-muted">{{ blogpost.teaser }}</p>
</div>
</div>
{% endfor %}
In my controller I used this code to add a flash-message and redirect:
$this->get('session')->getFlashBag()->add('success', 'Foo Message');
return $this->redirect($this->generateUrl('list_route'));
I displayed the messages in the template with this code:
<div id="flashes" class="row-fluid">
{% for type, flashMessages in app.session.flashbag.all() %}
{% for flashMessage in flashMessages %}
<div class="alert alert-{{ type }}">
<button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="alert">×</button>
{{ flashMessage|raw }}
</div>
{% endfor %}
{% endfor %}
</div>
This worked perfectly until I upgraded from symfony 2.3 to 2.4.1.
There is no error, nothing wrong in my logs. The message is simply not displayed, app.session.flashbag is empty.
Did something change with the flashbag? How to fix that?
Are you using the Liip\CacheControlBundle by chance? I had the exact same problem and after some digging I found out that this bundle clears the flashbag.
in config.yml see if there is a flash_message_listner: true line and if there is turn it to false and things should work again.
I did this as an answer because I don't have enough rep to comment. I imagine that Liip\CacheControlBundle would have done that in the previous version too, but I thought I would give it a shot because it worked for me.
Instead of getting the standard distribution bundle I got the REST distribution and it came with this package which includes that flash_message_listner: true by default. Simply flipping that, fixed my problem.
