stm_article_order: Arbitrary sort order for your articles

RedFox · 2010-11-12 20:32:27

Thanks … all is well now!

Especially after I put this in the plug-in CCS …

em.article_id a {
display: inline-block !important;
float: left;
width: 20px; /* redfox > lining up article titles straight to the left! */
}

:)

Oh, Matt (or anybody else as well), in case you know how to cure the image thing: please post here! Like I said in #59 “we should develop stm_article_order in a collaboration”

I can fix it but how do you want me to contribute? Email you the code change or is there a repository or submitting changes?

Edit: Although it sounds like renobird is rewriting it. I assume his would be released as a new plugin with his prefix instead of the stm one?

Yes, please do so. Thanks, Matt!
I’m looking forward to dismantling your code :) I looked at the way redbot did it in bot_show_image, but couldn’t get my head around integrating it.

I realized this CSS flaw but didn’t care at the end of the day :)

Hey Matt – you are correct – I’m basically rewriting the plugin. I’m a bit buried with other projects at the moment, but I’d like to get back to it shortly. In the meantime I’m sure any progress on stm_article_order would be much appreciated.

I sent Uli a way to check for an article image. It doesn’t fix the file extension issue since I think that would require another query against the images table but it’s an improvement.

uli · 2010-11-16 20:27:43

Version 0.2.3 released with some improvements: see #59.

RedFox · 2010-11-16 20:47:13

You’re great Uli!

Is it possible to give articles which are ‘hidden’ (draft, etc!) another background-color?

That’s been an easy one, phew. I left the version number and just re-uploaded the file.

uli · 2010-11-16 22:10:34

Re-uploaded the file another time: I had forgotten that Matts code required a second article_status injection. Please download once again.

RedFox · 2010-11-18 16:51:42

Uli, where in the plug-in CSS do I have to put status_1, status_2, etc … ?

This doesn’t work:

#navigation .section li span .status_4 {
			background: red;
			}

uli · 2010-11-18 17:01:31

I think simply .status_4 should work.

And it doesn’t work because of the space after span.

I always used a customized version of Remora, and just remarked difficulties using the Remora menu on the stm_ao page when created by a vanilla stylesheet: The menu closes before you can reach the second or third list item.

Solution 1: Download the new version:

Fixed the CSS-bug with the Vanilla Remora menu
Added two links for folding all articles in one go as another means of making the list more manageable. Like before, you can expand single sections by clicking their title bars.

Or, if you don’t want to ruin all your custom stm_ao styles and translations …

Solution 2:
Add the following line to the end of your Remora stylesheet or into the CSS section of the plugin:
#nav li ul {z-index: 999;}

This one is not rocket science but I never thought of relieving the life of my clients with a front side link to stm_ao, and so might you:

<a href="<txp:site_url />textpattern/index.php?event=stm_article_order#article_<txp:article_id />">Arrange articles</a>

As you see, this will open the stm_ao pane and scroll down to the desired item (if the list is long enough and articles aren’t set to hidden). Goes without saying that it lives in an article form and that I wrapped it in rvm_if_privileged tags. And the following declaration block in textpattern.css for classic marks the clicked item in the list:

#page-stm_article_order .article:target {
	border-right: 20px solid #FFD438;
	}
