indeed the conflict is created by https://github.com/lazychaser/laravel-nestedset/blob/v5/src/NodeTrait.php#L108

Great thx!

🙂

@ifox any idea why this is happening?

@jefsev let me check. Is that the output of

getNestedSlug

?

I notice Twill doesn't support simplified chinese when it tries to convert the title field into slug url field, so the slug url field ended up being null, and user has to manually update the slug url

Hi, I am Chinses user too and I have created a pr on this, hope it helps https://github.com/area17/twill/pull/1907

nice, it works, maybe the maintainer can come up with a more flexible solution that fixes it for not only chinese and also other non alphabetic languages

I have an idea to add one more option 'Move to the next/previous page' to that three dots drop down. It will give the opportunity to move a records from a page to another

That's how the slug is being saved in de database. So it reverses the first 2 when there is a second depth.

My controller as per documentation:

class PageController extends BaseModuleController
{
    protected $moduleName = 'pages';

    public $permalinkBase = '';

    protected $indexOptions = [
        'reorder' => true,
    ];
    protected $nestedItemsDepth = 4;

    protected function form($id, $item = null):array
    {
        $item = $this->repository->getById($id, $this->formWith, $this->formWithCount);

        $this->permalinkBase = $item->ancestorsSlug;

        return parent::form($id, $item);
    }
}

maybe I need more coffee but Twill doesn't save any nested slug in database, each record has a single slug (as in no / in them) and the full permalink is resolved dynamically

are you sure that your nested tree is valid?

Your right my bad, i may need that coffee 😛 I\

Any tips on creating blocks during an import process? I'm going to be migrating some content from another system so working on a Command that creates some Module records and want to add a string to a simple custom block. I'm trying to mimic the payload posted from the admin. Works for form inputs and translatable fields but can't seem to find where blocks are specifically created/updated in the source. Working with this so far

// mimic format of admin PUT request
$ta['name'] = $data[0];
$ta['active'] = 1; // seems required for translations
$ta['summary'] = $data[5]; // translatable input

// Block content doesn't get created
$ta['blocks'][] = [
    'id' => now(),
    'content' => $data[7],
    'type' => "a17-block-app-text",
    'is_repeater' => false,
    'editor_name' => 'default'
];

$twillArtist = TwillArtist::create($ta);
$twillArtist->setSlugs();
$twillArtist->save();

I may be wrong, but you can check that on the repository with overloaded method like

prepareFieldsBeforeSave

. That method is called multiple times, firstly on the form save and for every block after. You can try with the

Log

facade to log that or Ray if you use it. Dont

dd

, it wont reach blocks.

@kerkness you need to use create/update functions from your TwillArtist repository class so that the blocks get saved

or you can directly create blocks themselves with the appropriate

blockable_id

and

blockable_type

values

Great. Thanks for the tips. I'll explore those methods.

Brilliant.. this will work for my needs

$twillArtist = TwillArtist::create($ta);
$twillArtist->setSlugs();
$twillArtist->save();

$block = [
    'content' => ['content' => ['en' => '<p>THIS IS SOMETHING</p>']],
    'type' => "app-text",
    'position' => 1,
    'editor_name' => 'default',
    'blockable_id' => $twillArtist->id,
    'blockable_type' => TwillArtist::class,
];

$blocked = Block::create($block);

nice! not mandatory but I would recommend setting up morphmaps for your twill model

Okay... Cool. Didn't realize Eloquent has a

getMorphClass

method. I'll do this for my larger package as well as I use polymorph relationships on a bunch of models

Hi! Team, is it possible to use one repeater but with dynamic data? Let's say we have a repeater with select, but this select must take options from dynamic array, which we can provide? There's second question, how we can provide dynamic data to repeater? I tried to use ViewComposer, but I always got the same data in all repeaters... Reason is: we try to use the same repeater in two blocks but settings of repeaters depend on block. Seems this task is mind blowing 🙂

What's the status of stand alone nested repeaters in Twill 2.x? I'm building a menu module and I need to allow for a second level of nesting (submenu). From my research, I would need to either switch to using blocks or JsonRepeaters? I started playing a bit with this, and nothing feels strong. I'm thinking of maybe having a browser to choose a child menu instead, but this is not ideal.

how do i add route prefix for singleton modules that are in capsule form

Hi, I'm new in Twill. I really like it! Now I'm solving how to do photo gallery. Is it good idea to use Medias? Or do you have better recommendation? Thanks
