spf_js - JavaScript management - create, edit, delete, export to file

Derekstaff · 2014-12-06 22:30:36

Is it only possible to use one spf tag at a time? When I add <txp:spf_js /> just before the closing </body> tag, the javascript works fine. If I add another, such as <txp:spf_js name="shim" />, to include a shim script I created in the Javascript panel, the default script stops working.

Yes, I am using this plugin in all my sites. Can you post your head code or a url for us to check what might the problem be?

I’ve removed all but one spf_js tag, because having multiple tags seemed to be causing problems. But the code I was trying to use went:

                  ...
  			</main>
			<txp:output_form form="main_footer" />
		</div>
		<txp:spf_js />
		<txp:spf_js name="media-queries" />
		<txp:spf_js name="shim" />
	</body>

The default <txp:spf_js /> was my general code. <txp:spf_js name="shim" /> is the html5 shim, and <txp:spf_js name="media-queries" /> was a copy of the css3-mediaqueries.js script.

Hi Derekstaff

What if you just call the javascripts directly? Something like

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/media-queries.js"></script> 
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/shim.js"></script>

Thanks for the idea. Unfortunately, calling directly as you suggested again made the default script, called through the <txp:spf_js /> tag, fail.

Hi Simon, everybody

I am designing a site and would love to use this plugin but on installation I had 2 problems

The database table was not created (I solved that by importing the table from another site)
The js folder (now in txp’s default install) is not been recognised, or/and more specifically the preference does not appear in the advanced preferences.

The menu item exists under the presentation tab but on saving any of the javascripts I get Internal error "Undefined index: spf_js_dir".

Hello Yiannis

I just tested installing version 0.51 (the latest on GitHub) on a clean install of Textpattern 4.5.7 – and all went well.

I can only assume that any errors are specific to your installation/permissions/database setup.

All I can suggest is that you uninstall the plugin, check permissions, and try again.

Hi Simon,

Reinstalling the plugin did it. I’m not sure what went wrong first time but problem is now solved:) Thanks for the quick response.

Hi Simon I seem to have two javascript items under presentation>menu after going through this process rightly suggested by Stef. Is there a way I can get rid of the second one?

colak · 2018-03-23 17:55:39

Just a heads up that in txp 4.7.0 beta 2, the title in Preferences>Admin appears as spf_js_dir instead of Javascript directory

Hey everyone!

I’m using 4.7.1, and installed the plugin, but can’t get it to work! So I’ve got two questions;

1. How do you make sure that PHP is able to write to the ‘js’ directory that was created in the root? I know literally nothing about PHP, is there a specific file that I’m supposed to edit?

2. I don’t have a “JavaScript directory” option in preferences – is this normal for 4.7.1, or is there a way that I can make this appear?

To anyone who answers – thank you so much!

Hi ia278,

The plugin will no longer be needed after the next txp release.

js code can now be written in the styles tab and after you save the theme to the disk, it can be made accessible as a static file.

To make this work we currently use etc’s plugin which I can not find in the forum just now but I am posting it here for your convenience.
