jaeitee Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 (edited) Hi Steve. I get a blank page with the error EX0I can confirm I experience the same error.*fixed* make sure you select correct template type when creating. I applied it to my existing template which was not created using Featured Records. Edited July 13, 2015 by N4H fixed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaeitee Posted July 13, 2015 Share Posted July 13, 2015 Well ignore my above solution, that's incorrect. Error EX0 returns on reload. Is there a way to see what's causing this error?It happens on a fresh template when I add :{{if count($articles)}} <div class='ipsGrid ipsGrid_collapsePhone'> {{foreach $articles as $id => $record}} <div class='ipsGrid_span6'> {template="entry" app="cms" location="database" group="article_grid" params="$record, $database"} </div> {{endforeach}} </div> {{endif}}If I remove the above line and revert it to the original the page works again.

Knux0r Posted July 15, 2015 Share Posted July 15, 2015 It works if you copy and paste just the changes, not the whole section of code. For some reason when you do that the </section> turns red and throws errors. If you add: <div class='ipsGrid ipsGrid_collapsePhone'> <div class='ipsGrid_span6'> </div> </div> around the existing code it seems to work fine.

Tiki Tiki Posted July 27, 2015 Share Posted July 27, 2015 And a bonus for all those who want the 2x1x1 layout from 3.4 – use this instead: This is a great start! Thanks! How would one go about producing smaller record image thumbnails for the older articles in the grid below the full-width latest article? Likewise, what if you want to use a smaller font for the titles in the grid? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joel R Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 And regarding the grid view for article listings: while that is not a default option, it only needs a small template change, since a responsive grid is already in the CSS. So to have a grid view for articles: 1. Add a custom database template in the Pages’ template manager. Make sure it’s of the type “Featured Records”. Also make sure you assign it to your article database. Also call it “Article Grid” (that name is later used in the code). 2. Open the “index” template of this newly created template group. Replace this part: {{if count($articles)}} {{foreach $articles as $id => $record}} {template="entry" app="cms" location="database" group="article_grid" params="$record, $database"} {{endforeach}} {{endif}} With this: {{if count($articles)}} <div class='ipsGrid ipsGrid_collapsePhone'> {{foreach $articles as $id => $record}} <div class='ipsGrid_span6'> {template="entry" app="cms" location="database" group="article_grid" params="$record, $database"} </div> {{endforeach}} </div> {{endif}} That’s it. Your articles are now displayed as a grid which automatically collapses on smaller screen. And a bonus for all those who want the 2x1x1 layout from 3.4 – use this instead: {{if count($articles)}} <div class='ipsGrid ipsGrid_collapsePhone'> {{foreach $articles as $id => $record}} {{if ($id == 0)}} <div class='ipsGrid_span12'> {{else}}<div class='ipsGrid_span6'> {{endif}} {template="entry" app="cms" location="database" group="article_grid" params="$record, $database"} </div> {{endforeach}} </div> {{endif}} I'd like to nominate this post for being the "Mind-Blowing Informative Post of the Month" and to suggest this gets saved to documentation. craigf136 and tAPir 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZakRhyno Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 (edited) Thanks for the feedback, Danny. You are certainly right about the documentation. Pages has it’s own structure and logic of modules and without proper documentation it can be be a struggle to understand it and get good results. And lastly, where are those “tons” of forum questions about Pages with 0 replies? If the questions are understandable and can be answered with reasonable effort, I keep answering them for months. There is only 4 help docs out or Pages. Were the be more coming sooner than later like a week are to not months?

Ralf Herrmann Posted July 28, 2015 Share Posted July 28, 2015 There is only 4 help docs out or Pages. There are actually more, but they are being reviewed and finished. So expect more articles very soon. Lou Adducci, craigf136 and Ausy 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kar3n2 Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 oh god I just bought the pages but I wish I hadn't now. I saw it used on a site and it looked fab but seeing this little lot it sounds awful.

If you'd like a full blown website built around your forum community, Pages is not bad. It could be better admittedly for non-technical admins but once you start using it you'll recognize its intrinsic power. kar3n2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoAncestry Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 There are some fixes coming in 4.0.12 and then more feature improvements in the early September timeframe. These may make things much better for you to integrate Pages. I was a heavy user of IP.Content and have struggled so far with Pages, but I want to hold out some optimism for the upcoming releases and then determine what path is best for me to work with. I think Pages will get there, and I am just hoping I don't have to customize everything to get the functionality I am hoping for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GrooveOnBeat Posted August 1, 2015 Share Posted August 1, 2015 I don’t understand. Can you clarify? Sure. I asked about template logic to call a field in Pages, but received a reply that customization (code and design) is outside the scope of technical support. So I asked in the forum and you helped me with it, I believe it was your first reply as IPS staff. Conditionals/template logic have been documented by IPS staff in the past and it was a way to help developers to do things in Pages (at the time Content). All I wanted was this: {$record->field_x} Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ralf Herrmann Posted August 2, 2015 Share Posted August 2, 2015 I asked about template logic to call a field in Pages, but received a reply that customization (code and design) is outside the scope of technical support. That will always be the case and is not related to whether it’s about Pages or any other app. If you need to modify templates, you can be sure that this falls under customization and will be out of the scope of the support – even if it might be a question that is easy to answer.
