Twill

The link is constructed correctly, but when clicked, the page is updated but does not go into the module.

Hi community, i have a problem with nested modules, in production nested module gives this error. Has anyone encountered it before? It works locally as it should.

It looks like a case sensitive problem. Try to rename "month" with the capital M

Hello guys,  I'm deep diving in Twill from yesterday and it's great

I have noticed that a docs page is missing

I was looking for an extensive documentation for the twill.php config file

Hi <@951507936449024071> do you mean uploads from a frontend form ending up in this browser field?

No, i need the src of this files in frontend

`
        $files = $page->files('info_videodownloads_files');
        foreach($files as $file){
            var_dump($file);
        }
        die;`

$file return TRUE  (boolean)

see https://github.com/area17/twill/blob/2.x/src/Models/Behaviors/HasFiles.php

I guess you can try filesList in your case

is there a way to get infos from file like filesize?

if you do `->files()->get()` you'll see you get everything

the only thing is you won't get a computed url when doing that, but as you can see in the source above, you can build it using `FileService::getUrl($file->uuid)`

Thanks!
I have noticed that the key 'available_user_locales' is missing.
It has been tricky to find a way to enable Italian in the user language preference 🙂

thanks for flagging, we'll add it (PR welcome too), the source config files are good to go through in the meantime https://github.com/area17/twill/blob/d0b580a7d69b3b56ebb6c1eeae0ef56fd9211119/config/twill.php#L200

Hello. Please tell me how the "keepAlive" parameter for "formConnectedFields" should work in the Twill 2.8 version. There is no difference when changing the values ​​from 'true' to 'false'.

hi <@195245843161415680> with keepAlive at true it should preserve the data of the hidden fields

<@479379745856028705> I use the "false" parameter. But the data is also saved.

Thanks <@195245843161415680> we'll take a look

Hi 🙂 

I am using Media field inside settings module, I tried to retrieve the image in blade using settings helper as following:

app(SettingRepository::class)->image('image_name', 'default')

but this is not getting the image, it is only returning empty image placeholder like this: src="data:image/gif;base64,..."

please, any ideas what is wrong?

Hi <@833697870779645952> you should get the settings record to be able to call the image helper on it

so I should call the model not the repository? because also I finding difficulty getting translated settings keys

if you have multiple settings page, you should also add a where clause for `section`

translated settings key should be fine with the repository byKey function

but you can certainly use the model directly

Thanks <@479379745856028705> I will try that now 🙂

<@479379745856028705> please excuse me for that,
I tried to use it as following:
```
@php
use \A17\Twill\Models\Setting;
@endphp

{{ Setting::where('home')->whereKey('welcome_image')->image('welcome_image') }}
````
I know this is wrong, but I am confused, even when I tried to get the first record using this query on Settings model it returned null.

please if there is any documentation for this part, would be so thankful

also, getting translated keys from repository methods not working

app(SettingRepository::class)->byKey('site_title'); as exmple in TR languages brings english one

<@833697870779645952> this is not really on Twill to document, you're using standard eloquent queries here. `where('home')` won't do anything, and you need to actually retrieve the record by doing `->first` or another query builder method. Right now you're calling image on the query builder, not a model.

Sorry <@479379745856028705>  I wrote it wong, the query I am calling:
Setting::where('section','home')->whereKey('welcome_image')->first();

and this is returning null, this what I was asking about

for translated settings, is your app locale in TR when you render it?

well how can that query return null then?

because, it has to return a that record from eloquent so I can call image or even translations

`Setting::where('section','home')->where('key', 'welcome_image')->first();`

but this is not happening neither with image or with text records

Setting::where('section','home')->where('key','welcome_image')->first()->image('welcome_image', 'default');

the problem was whereKey, it's a method in Laravel already

No no, Thanks you so much for help and your time 🙏

please just one last thing about the translation;

Setting::where('section','home')->where('key','welcome_pre_title')->first()->translate(app()->getLocale())->value;

this is working fine, but I am looking for more short syntax way possible!

Here's the source of the byKey helper, I'm really not sure why it doesn't work for you in that case.

```php
public function byKey($key, $section = null)
{
        $settingQuery = $this->model->when($section, function ($query) use ($section) {
            $query->where('section', $section);
        })->where('key', $key);

        if ($settingQuery->exists()) {
            return $settingQuery->with('translations')->first()->value;
        }

        return null;
}
```

if you're not able to use this directly for some reason, one thing you should do when you are looking for a shorter syntax in your own codebase is to create your own helpers so you don't have to repeat it all over the place

Thank you, I will have to do this for now, Later I will investigate why byKey helper is not working for translations, May be I messed up somewhere 😂 
Thanks <@479379745856028705> !

Hello, I would like to know your opinions on something

I really like the block editor because it allows me to dynamize the content that I want to display. My question is how can I handle a block that needs information from a module? with the browser formfield? 😅

Hi <@713238304954384404>, yes, exactly, you can select module records from a browser field within a block

may i send a pr to add a select all option and make the  `max` option to be infinite?

adding an infinite option sounds ok, but the select all option will require a new button that should not be enabled by default. also, keep in my mind that the list in the browser modal is paginated (lazy loaded on scroll), so select all might not do what you'd expect, though I hope you're not hoping to select hundreds of records...

you are right, it doesn't seem like a good idea when there are a lot of records

my idea was to be able to link a module to a block without having to select the records one by one (select all), or to be able to tell the block* to fetch the lastest (number) of records

that's something you don't need a field for, or maybe just one to let your editors choose the amount of records

you can implement whatever logic you want to pull records when you render the block

https://twill.io/docs/block-editor/rendering-blocks.html#modifying-block-data

> Block classes
> If you need more control over blocks, their validation or data for rendering you can use a block class

https://demo.twill.io/work/works/2335/edit?lang=de

where do I modify this form? the one with `?lang=XX` at the end

First picture is on first load, second picture is after I press ZH

it is simply supposed to select the language on load
