Django CMS support

darklow commented 11 years ago

Since Django Suit v0.2.0 Django CMS support is included.

Supported Django Cms versions

Django Suit currently supports Django CMS 2.3.5 and 2.4.x versions. Note: Some features like row styling (see preview below) are available only in 2.4.x version.

Issues

Report issues/questions related to beta version here in this issue or irc. To discuss some ideas or chat - join us at #django-suit on irc.freenode.net

Known issues

Left menu and submit buttons takes extra horizontal space and content may not fit on smaller screens, therefore there will be horizontal menu layout sub-theme available very soon, that will give you an extra width for content.
Some CSS files used in plugin edit iframes are caching "too good" (Full reload doesn't affect iframe), therefore only emptying browser cache will help browser "to forget" django-cms original css files and load new ones.

Sweet! Very nice! Will test is as soon as possible (this weekend most likely).

Kilian commented 11 years ago

This looks great! I was wondering what the reasoning behind the change form blocks having a negative margin?

Some issues I found:

The "pages" in breadcrumb is not linked if you're on a detail page, unlike for example the "users" link when editing a user.
The two checkboxes "Is published" and "In Navigation" are placed besides each other in the regular style, but now "is published" becomes a label. "In navigation" should be similarly styled
The plus sign next to adding a plugin is showing a bit of the next icon (so pedantic, sorry!)

@Kilian

What do you meant by "Detail page"? Can't find any breadcrumb which is not working
Didn't understood this too. I applied just styling, by leaving column names the same as in original templates, which are "In navigation" and "Published". If you want to suggest these names, you should report in django-cms repo
Seems fine to me. Which OS/Browser. Screenshot also would be nice.

This is the unlinked pages breadcrumb, on /admin/cms/page/1/

pages

What django-cms does is place two checkmarks next to each other, so 'is published' and 'in navigation' each get their own checkmark:

checkmarks but it probably does this in a hacky way so in django-suit it's not very clear which checkmark belongs where:

options

this is the screenshot of the icon, in firefox 20:

Django-compressor gives out errors for 3rd party app support templates

maestrofjp commented 9 years ago

Would you welcome a pull request for support for Django-CMS v3? If so, let's talk on a new ticket and figure out how to support both v2 and v3.

benjaoming commented 9 years ago

@maestrofjp check out the latest release of django-cms, it has a pretty okay fix (not perfect) to make django-suit and others work... buttons are no longer missing from the frontend editor :)

maestrofjp commented 9 years ago

Yes, it's way better and acceptable since most django cms 3 editing is done on front end -- inline editing. Let me know if you want help improving things from where they stand. We're pretty locked into djanog CMS and moving to use suit on our future projects (fyi, waiting for my license request to be approved -- so don't worry).

benjaoming commented 9 years ago

@maestrofjp I think the stance from django-cms is that if there is a way to improve djangoc-cms where it has become too focused on django.contrib.admin, then they are willing to merge it. So anything that's a generic improvement and not django-suit specific is acceptable.
