yes, this box with nothing, or do redirect for other page/module

You can disable the dashboard completely in

config/twill.php

:

'enabled' => [
        'dashboard' => false,
    ],

But yes, I guess you'll need to configure something else as your admin index.

thanks for your time 👍

Hi I've got a model with model that has already been implemented (and has its own repository implementation). Is there anyway to get this plugged into Twill so I can manage it via the admin dashboard without having repeated models. The model is provided by another package.

Hi @User, it's definitely possible because Twill's Model class is directly extending the base Eloquent Model. But I think you'll need to at least adapt your model to "look" like a Twill model. I'm thinking of the columns:

published

,

deleted_at

, etc., and the related scopes. Possibly some other things from model behaviors.

I'm not sure about wiring up the existing repository though, I've never explored something like that.

Thanks @User I'll try creating a model and having it extend the package model rather than the Twill base model and see what needs implementing.

Hi! How do you render nested blocks (blocks within blocks) on the frontend? EG I've got a block called research.blade.php containing a few text fields and a block editor. The block editor allows adding research_text.blade.php blocks. On the frontend, research.blade.php and its fields are rendering but I can't work out how to get its child blocks to render. Thanks!

Hello! After upgrading to Twill 2.5.2 and run

twill:update

all my blocks are working as expected, except the repeaters which are failing with

Cannot read properties of undefined (reading 'title')

after inspecting the JS file I see the function returning the error is:

blockTitle: function() {
                    var e = this.block.title || ""
                      , t = this.titleFieldValue || ""
                      , n = e && t ? " — " : "";
                    return this.block.hideTitlePrefix ? "".concat(t) : "".concat(e).concat(n).concat(t)
                },

Does this rings a bell? ☝️ Any easy fix?

This is the code of the Accordion:

php
@twillBlockTitle('Accordion')
@twillBlockIcon('media-list')
@twillBlockGroup('app')

@formField('repeater', ['type' => 'item'])

And this is the code of the Item:

php
@twillRepeaterTitle('Item')
@twillRepeaterTrigger('Add Item')
@twillRepeaterGroup('app')

@formField('input', [
    'name' => 'title',
    'label' => 'Title',
    'translated' => true,
])

Hey @User, yes this is related to the dynamic title feature introduced in 2.5. I'll do some quick tests on my side. At a glance, I'm not sure why

this.block

would be undefined in this context.

@User I'm unable to replicate this issue. Do you have the same problem if you create a new item?

I mean a new module item.

Is it possible to use form browsers to select entities of more than one model type?

I updated to Twill 2.5.2 from 2.4 and now some of my modules - but not all, only certain ones - error with the following message when I go in to edit a record in the admin: *Undefined variable $form_fields (View: /Users/sebastianlenton/Sites/XXXX/vendor/area17/twill/views/partials/form/utils/_block_editor_store.blade.php) *

I've created new repeater blocks, and all of them worked immediately. Wondering if there was some caching issue, although I've cleared all the caches and generated views.

@User Cool! And are you still getting the error on your existing items & repeaters?

Yes, the error persist on those.

Can you share a quick overview of what's in your

blocks

table? Specifically for existing items & repeaters. Anything that can help pinpoint the issue.

I'm wondering if this could be an untested edge case between the dynamic title feature and the named blocks feature. Both introduced in 2.5.

Repeaters not working after update.

hello all... i am having some trouble saving with a Browser for a many-to-many relationship. i believe i have my relationships configured correctly, i have a pivot table, the Browser displays the related module records and i can select them, but nothing is being saved to the database. i do not get any errors. Twill v2.4

Hey @User, can you share some of the code in your Repository?

sure thing!

public function afterSave($object, $fields)
    {
        $this->updateBrowser($object, $fields, 'downloads');
        parent::afterSave($object, $fields);
    }

    public function getFormFields($object)
    {
        $fields = parent::getFormFields($object);
        $fields['browsers']['downloads'] = $this->getFormFieldsForBrowser($object, 'downloads');

        return $fields;
    }

i am trying my best to follow this methodology: https://spectrum.chat/twill/tips-and-tricks/step-by-step-ii-creating-a-twill-app~37c36601-1198-4c53-857a-a2b47c6d11aa

Yes, this is pretty much the best reference yet for many-to-many browsers
