Edit this page as code snippet module

[RolfP]

Hi,

I modified the code posted at http://forum.websitebaker.org/index.php/topic,2352.0.html and created a module.
This module adds an image in template where ever you put the code
<?php frontend_edit(); ?> if the logged in account is allowed to edit the page.

On clicking image the backend editor opens the selected page.

See the attached modul.

Have fun.

Rolf

Needs to be updated for 2.7, only works with the default group_id and not the group_ids field. i might give it ago if i have time, that is of couse unless theres a feature like this already built into 2.7??

[fsuk]

I have updated the module for WB 2.7 for multiple groups.

Theres probably some redundant code in there.

The updated module is attatched.

Sorry for the german:
so:
I cleaned it a little bit up ... e.g. no nessesay new database() needed,
and collecting the data before echo.

where are two variables left
- $old_admin_users und
- $admin_users.

both of them are only used one time - and never more; so they can be left/removed.

[aldus]

Yup it works fine, although i had to remore /n from the end of the Edit Page line as it wasnt starting a new line just printing '/n'

You can see the attachment only if you are logged in, if you have cookies allowed und if you have javascript allowed.

I think: not everybody should gets the code

Hello!
This is a great upgrade!

I only have one question:
How can I modify the

<?php frontend_edit(); ?> 

so I get a message when this snippet is not installed.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

like done for the register_frontend_m odfiles function called in the index.php of the most templates out there, so:

Code:

<?php
if (function_exists('frontend_edit')) {
  frontend_edit();
} else {
  echo 'Sorry, to use this function, you need to install the code snippet xxx first.';
}
?>

Thanks Christian!

i have a question about the frontedit...

is it possible to make it easyer for a simple editor, after he made changes to his site, that he can with one click back to frontend.... or is this to complex in the backend....

or is there a other option that makes a sucess from a user to only one site to edit...save and look changes....in the frontend?

A click to the button and he turns to the frontend  in new tab (see image)

If i want to add a new group, i get this error:

Code:

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_VARIABLE in /home/opentopo/public_html/wb/modules/frontedit2.7/info.php on line 1

So, why do i get a error from a snippet if i want to add a new group in the WB backend? for me a strange thing...

@edit:
ok, Problem found.
the info.php file was in a wrong format and there was no white space betwen the <?php tag and the first variable.

I have a bug report.
If one use the Search function to search the portal as guest and is not logged in, the Edit link, with the image, shows up regardless of whether one is loged in or not. Clicking the Edit link results in one having to login thou, but still, it should not be displayed.

This only happens on the search page. (websitebakerurl/search/index.php)


I have tried to locate why it show up there as guest, but I am unable to figure it out.

i just have a short try - i don't can confirm this on my site! we have a site with the maincontent is for unregistered/unlogged in users and a short part is for spezial users with login!

i've the frontedit placed in the site - with your report i've tryed out imediatly but no such manner in my case!

mean guest in your case - no login or no access to edit a site??

because if you logged in and have no access to edit site - the fronteditbutton will display anyway...

Correct. The user is not logged in.
On every page on the site, guest users do not see the image. However if the guest user use the search function, the edit image appears also for guests.

This happens Only on the /search/index.php page, where the search results also apears.

I have just noticed another problem, that might help in debugging. Logged in users Do Not get the Edit image on the search page. The site owner noticed it.

We are in the process of launching a new design, using WebsiteBaker for the first time, and are trying various things. This is the last remaning bug we need to resolve before we can launch the new CMS.
