I work on a number of sites that compartmentalise controllers into folders -
e.g.: news/index.php, news/view.php, pages/index.php, pages/view.php, etc.
I'm finding it very difficult to use Dreamweaver to edit these sites as the tabs and title bar only shows the name of the document and I get lots of "index.php", "index.php", "index.php" documents that are impossible to differential from one another unless I actually load them and look at them.
Is there a solution to display the parent folder somewhere, e.g.: "pages/index.php" instead of just "index.php"?
Thanks.
I do not think so. you better name your files with different names. than with a different directory. it's just my advice. good luck!

I built a site on weebly and archived and exported all of the files associated with it. When I tried the files with the new site (basically just needed to change addresses), the slideshow no longer worked. That's when I found out via google that this is a known problem, but all of the posts on it are over two years old. Has anyone figured out a way around this?
Usually I would include code on SO, but there is so much that you'll have to let me know what you want to see.
I put my weebly site inside an iframe on the "authorized site". No one can link to any of the individual pages and I couldn't figure out the iframeresizer, so there is awkward space at the end of some pages. It's terrible.
But the rest of the group can easily go into weebly and edit any of the pages, which saves me a lot of time and responsibility. Plus, of course, the precious slide show works.
Currently on our site we have 4 weblink resources that are displaying in proper order (by the date on the title) on the page, but after adding one more weblink resource, it is added to the page but appears one below the first link, when it should be at the top.
I am not sure where to look to manually re-order these, and there doesn't seem to be any option to do this from the ModX interface or Resource Edit menu (setting the "index" does nothing).
Is there a way to accomplish this? Is it possible that this is custom and I need to find where the ordering is happening? I have looked in the Snippets folder for this page and wasn't able to find anything that looked like it was doing ordering.
Possibly related noob question: If we just want to manually re-order the links via html, how do we modify the source code directly, via ModX?
If you are using a custom snippet to extract the links then modx will not be doing any ordering for you at all, that would need to be written into the snippet itself.
if you are using getResources, [ http://rtfm.modx.com/display/ADDON/getResources ] look up the sortby option in the docs. I'm not 100% sure what the default is.
if you are using WayFinder [ http://rtfm.modx.com/display/ADDON/Wayfinder ] the default sort order will be the order they appear in the resource tree, which I believe is menuindex. I believe WayFinder also has a sorting option. [see the docs]
if you are not seeing changes when moving things around in the resource tree, be sure to clear the cache as changes in the resource tree do not automatically refresh the cache.
to manually add the links into the page/resource, you need to find the chunk/snippet/template that is displaying the links and modify that accordingly.
To manually re-order resources in "Resources Tree" you just need "drag-and-drop" by mouse to change the resources places.
I am trying to add a small "3 box news segment". I wanted it, to be visible on multiple pages. Normally I would just use chunks but the thing is that I want to be able to modify "3 box segment" content and preferably with a ritch text. Any Ideas how to accomplish that?
You can use getResources to grab the content from 3 hidden resources this way you still keep your chunks for the segment layouts and your actual content is in the resources [which you can update with the rich text editor].
Instead of getResources you could also use getResourceField to get the value of a field or template variable on for example the homepage. This allows one place to manage it, and you can just reference it with getResourceField when you want it to show elsewhere.
I need to divide long content to sub-pages.
Rule for dividing: Heading1 (H1)
Cms-system: MODX Evolution
As far as i know, there is nothing in modx to use for this kind of problem.
I probably got to do this manually anyway, but i still would like to know if there is a way to do this in MODX Evo / Revo.
Edit:
I need to do this in MODX; sub-pages got to be actual subpages, and original page becomes to container.
Navigation will be done with wayfinder.
Edit2:
All done.. manually. Question still open, though.
This is not possible out of the box and I don't know of any extra that archieves what you want. You would have to write a plugin that acts everytime you save a resource and split up the content, create/delete sibling resources as needed etc. Sounds like a lot of work for what you want to archieve to me.
I suppose you have a look at the MIGX extra. It provides you with a TV with the possibility to store an indefinite amount of distinct TV content sets. Have a look at the documentation and Mark Hamstra's tutorial (with screenshots) to see how it is done. You should define one MIGX entry to consist of a text field for the <h1> and a rich text field for the content of the "subpage".
Afterwards, you can use form customization to hide the original content field and display your MIGX Tv instead.
I think, this is a much easier way to archieve, what you want, and can't think of any way, where you would benefit from actual subpages.
Edit: Sorry, I just recognized that you were asking about Evolution, not Revolution. My solution would work in Revo, but I don't think there's something like MIGX for Evo. Sorry, my mistake.
not 'out of the box' you will have to run your content through a snippet to parse it into separate divs or something that you can run some javascript on to possibly 'tab' the content.
If you need to show the 'subpages' in your navigation, you will probably have to use the gatResources extra to parse your content ~ which will be very expensive on resource usage.
You can (depending on how you're using the tree) just create actual sub resources under the parent resource, using Ditto or Wayfinder to build navigation for it.
If you can't use the tree like that (though from your description I think you can), you could also set up a number of template variables ("content1", "content2", "content3" etc) and show that with a simple snippet or so.
I have seen many somewhat similar questions, but nothing quite what I'm looking for. So at the risk of being told this is a duplicate... here it goes.
I've found that there are times I have a node that simply contains content that will be displayed somewhere else, but shouldn't be viewed directly. That is, no one should ever go to node/1234, but the content in node 1234 should be displayed somewhere else.
For example, I create an about page with tabbed content using views. So there are "About Me", "About Us" and "About Them" pages. All of these are displayed in a single page with tabs using Views. So I don't want people to get directly to the "About Us" node because then they wouldn't see the tabs for the other pages. At the same time, I don't want Google giving people a direct link to this node, I want to limit access so users can only get to it through the View (i.e., the tab).
So I need to restrict access to the node, remove it from the Drupal search results, and make sure Google doesn't pick up on it. Any suggestions?
---- Note ----
I've accepted the answer from mingos (thanks btw) because even though it's not a full answer / solution, it gave me some good things to think about. Additional answers are still welcome.
In Drupal 7 you can use: http://drupal.org/project/internal_nodes
Description: Some content/nodes should never be viewed directly; only visible be through something else such as Views or Panels. This module denies access to node/[nid] URLs while allowing the content to stay published and otherwise viewable.
Full disclosure: I am the creator and co-maintainer of Internal Nodes. I found this question while searching to see how the module could be found on Google.
Tough one.
If you want to have many nodes like this and do the "displaying elsewhere" dynamically, I can't think of anything right now (at 2:20 AM I rarely can).
If there is onne such page (or very few), I'd restrict access to it by any available means (Permissions, Nodeaccess, Content Access, TAC, whatever) and then create special themes for the pages where the restricted content should be displayed. The themes would contain database queries, fetching content from the restricted nodes.
Other possibility might include creating a special theme for the hidden nodes in question (perhaps all belonging to the same content type?). Make full node display nothing (or a message saying the access is restricted) and add a ROBOTS meta tag asking Google not to index the page. Make the teaser view available though - you can display it freely inside a view, but since /node/1234 is the FULL view, the actual content will be unavailable here.
Dunno if this solves your problem, hope it helps at least a bit.
I found this page after running into this same problem.
What I found worked for me might be part of the answer you need:
Take a look at the Page Manager Redirect Module http://drupal.org/project/page_manager_redirect . I just started playing with it.
It uses the Page Manager module of CTools to redirect one page to another. What makes this most powerful is that Page Manager uses Contexts. So, if you want to redirect all pages of a particular content type, you can do so.
I just started to use it (instead of Taxonomy Redirect and Path Redirect) to redirect (301 response code) my taxonomy terms for a particular vocabulary to particular nodes.
In your instance, you should be able to use contexts to filter for specific pages.
Of course this doesn't solve the problem of these nodes coming up in search results.
There is also another module Rabbit Hole which has a similar functionality like Internal Nodes but works for all entities, not only nodes.
I am having the same problem, and are currently thinking of the following solution where all the content of a node is to be displayed to certain users (permission based):
- unpublish node
- create a new published checkbox
- create a view with fields that shows alle the content
Haven't tested it thoroughly yet, but it seems to work.
The node is to be displayed to the creator (only one in permission 1), some of it to permission 2 and all of it to permission 3.
Any comments on this solution.
I assume this will also exclude it from search, but permission 2 and 3 needs to be able to search it. Still haven't figured that one out.
I used Rules module with an "entity is of bundle" and the built-in "Page redirect" action.
There is a really easy way to do this if you only want to show a content type through a view.
create a content type as and make it unpublished.
create a view and on the filter option set the filter to "Content: Published (No)"
the view will give anon users access to the content through the view but they won't have access to the unpublished content at the direct link to the content.
