    oh haha, makes more sense
  • e
    If I return $data['downloads'] I should be able to address it in the frontend as $block->downloads or just $downloads?
  • i
    Should be just 
    $downloads
  • e
    I would have expected that too, but it does not seem to recognise the variable.. I added App/Twill/Block namespace & folder structure..
  • i
    which method are you returning it from?
  • i
    is the class executed when rendering the block? could be a naming issue
  • e
    Copy code
    <?php

namespace App\Twill\Block;

use A17\Twill\Models\File;
use A17\Twill\Services\Blocks\Block;

class RecentDownloads extends Block
{
    public function getData(array $data, \A17\Twill\Models\Block $block): array
    {
        $data = parent::getData($data, $block);

        $data['downloads'][] = File::latest()->take(6)->get();

        return $data;
    }
}

    you can try to dd in there to see if it actually execute when rendering you block. What's the filename of your block? 
    recent-downloads
    ?
  • e
    RecentDownloads in the app folder and recent_downloads in frontend as mentioned in the docs..
  • i
    yeah ok that should work
  • e
    I added the file here
  • e
    The block class does not seem to execute
  • i
    how are you rendering blocks? 
    renderBlocks
    ?
  • e
    Copy code
    {!! $page->renderBlocks() !!}
  • i
    is 
    recent_downloads
    a repeater inside another block, or is it the block itself?
  • i
    If it's the block itself and its form view file is named 
    recent_downloads.blade.php
    , this should work. If not, we'll investigate
  • e
    It's called inside a block_editor block
  • e
    So that is a repeater I think
  • i
    then you need a class for its parent block
  • i
    but I'm confused by the fact that you don't know if it's a repeater or not. if it's a repeater within a block, you must have a repeater form field inside one of your block's form
  • i
    Basically, is recent downloads a block you can add from the Add content drop-down, or is it something you can add within another block?
  • e
    It's just a content block it seems, sorry
  • i
    ok, np
  • i
    we'll try to reproduce
  • e
    The block is called within a block_editor block
    Copy code
    @formField('block_editor', [
        'label' => 'Page content',
        'blocks' => [ 'recent_downloads']
    ])

    Hello, I have a question about slug. May I know in /views/partials/create.blade.php Can I have :translated="true" in the slug input?
    Copy code
    php
@if ($permalink ?? true)
    <x-twill::input
        name="slug"
        :label="twillTrans('twill::lang.modal.permalink-field')"
        :translated="true"
        ref="permalink"
        :prefix="$permalinkPrefix ?? ''"
    />
@endif
    I tried to change :translated to false, but will have buggy result.

    Hello, Has anyone encountered this problem? There are two modules (company contacts and branches). Company contacts consist of blocks. In branches, I need to substitute one block of company contacts (1 block of contacts must be displayed on the branches page on the front). (I output data to the block through the class, if anything).
  • e
    How can you get the current item id and the parent_id inside of a frontend controller with a repository connected to?
  • k
    Are you talking about nested modules? Sharing some more info would not hurt.
  • e
    Fixed it! 🙂 Nevermind..
