Crafter CMS doesn't restrict your HTML/JS. You can use any framework/tool/markup you like.
You can edit entry.ftl in the templates folder and put whatever markup you want if you're in a hurry.
You should also read the modeling article in the docs to understand how to give power to your content authors: https://docs.craftercms.org/current/developers/content-modeling.html

We're moving from a pure portal to a portal/aspx development model. So I've been working on getting my .Master pages working and so far so good, except i need a way to have a Editable Text webpart applied globally.
Imaging a block of copy that sits in the header and appears on each page.
So, in portal, the copy is entered, and this is used through out the site, regardless of the template. I know i can add static copy to the parent .Master page, but this needs to be editable by an admin.
I've tried registering the Editable Text webpart on the ASPX page, but this doesn't seem to work correctly in the portal.
I believe the way to accomplish this is to create a single page template that has only the editable text webpart on it and does not inherit any other content. Then on your master page, add a page placeholder which uses that editable text webpart page template. This should then display that on every page. I've not done this approach before but hypothetically speaking it should work.
You could set up a Custom Setting.
The Kentico documentation has a great How-To guide for that.
After that, you can then just reference it using a macro like {% Settings.MyCustomSetting %} on each page - this also allows you to then control how the text is rendered on each section, in case some sections have specific markup you need to apply to the text block.
What is the reason of converting to Mixed mode? Is it better control over the basic page markup or something else?
Are you aware that you can customize CMSPages/PortalTemplate.aspx or replace it by your custom base page completely?
You may consider to use this approach, and if you need that because some pages are more complex, so it makes more sense to hardcode them, you can also implement them as some larger custom web parts.
With a pageTreeNode I can forward the user to another page in my application, but I cannot take any action beside this.
If I want to do some more actions, I have to use a basicLeafNode and in the action I use (for example):
viewStateBean.restoreState = true;
context.redirectToPage( "someXPage.xsp" );
Is the behavior really the same, or what is recommended to use ?
following explanation I found on http://michelles-universe.blogspot.de/
hope that helps you
xe:basicLeafNode -- Use this to link to any standard URL. You can hard-code or compute the href and label properties. This can be used for links to standard Domino forms or pages, or any other general type of link. For links to another xPage, use the pageTreeNode instead
xe:pageTreeNode -- use this if you want to point to another xPage. All you need to enter is the page name in its simplest form (e.g. demo.xsp) and the text you want displayed. There is no need to compute the entire URL - that's all done for you
We are using liferay 6.1
On Public page we want to display web-content in one portlet, but it should not be only selected one.
we want to display it randomly on page refresh. Like on page refresh it should display different web content from group of web content.
Any hint ?
Thanks.
Consider to use structures & templates: With structures you give some contents of an article - this might be alternative content, or just a description of a filter that you want to display.
A simple structure (that contains all of the content in just one article, not exactly what you ask for) just has repeatable HTML text fields. Edit all of them with the content you want to show alternating.
In your template you read an article with this content, generate a random number and only show the fragment from the content that the random number suggests.
Another way is to have a template that queries Liferay's API for several articles. Then you randomly select one of them and display it.
Templates can be written in Velocity, Freemarker or XSL. The nice thing is they're completely runtime-configurable.
Liferay Blogs, particularly those of James Falkner, have a few articles on how to work with the API from templates.
You can customized the "Web Content Display" portlet with a hook.
Add to config-page the "show randomized" checkbox, get the list of existing journal articles and choose random one of them.
I would like to change the destination URL when clicking on a list item / item title so it will no send me to view the item but will send me to a different URL base on the item.
I am not looking to replace the Links list but to use the list title as URL query filter.
Thanks
You will need to do it using the custom Page / Customize the View Page in the SharePoint Designed. Please refer to this article on how you can achieve it using the SPGridView control
I'm not totally clear on what you'd like to do (maybe screenshot mock ups would help?), but here's some general advice.
If you want to change the behaviour of a control then investigate the properties of the control as kusek has suggested. If the properties don't do what you need then try overriding the control to change what is rendered.
If the above doesn't work out or you want to change how these links render no matter where they appear on the page, then you need to look at a page-level solution. The most common are jQuery that can dynamically replace the URLs with JavaScript, or an HTTP module which is much more low level and will actually alter the HTML rendered to the page.
Hope this helps.
I have a page layout for my MOSS '07 site that I want put a MultipleLookupField in. The field will point to a multiple lookup column in my custom content type that points back to the pages library so I can have a "Related Articles" field.
I've gotten the field to show up correctly--it's even editable when the page is in edit mode! But when you click on the link that shows up there, it display the page's properties view instead of the page itself.
There's lots of properties on the control, but there's little documentation at MSFT as to what they do.
Does anyone know how to change the link's URL to the actual page instead of the properties view?
Here's the tag I'm using:
<SharePointWebControls:MultipleLookupField
ID="MultipleLookupField1"
FieldName="RelatedIssues"
runat="server"></SharePointWebControls:MultipleLookupField>
The link takes me to here: /Pages/Forms/DispForm.aspx?ID=6&RootFolder=*
I want it to take me here: /Pages/faq1.aspx
Unfortunately the lookup control is designed to be compatible with generic lists and does not understand that the document libraries have a file with a specific url associated.
You will probably have to find a custom lookup control on the web or roll your own.
