Pre 3.3 release bug testing files

Okay, so I hoped to have a bit more than this done by tonight but I’ll go ahead and post this now anyway and maybe I’ll have some more time to work on it tomorrow today

This is a fairly small update. I’ve added expand and collapse abilities to the toolbar. I made some styling changes also and I did some reorganizing of the /assets/modules/quick_edit/ file structure. Next I think I will work on having a drop-down list of links to edit all of the editable content on the current page. I’m also thinking that I will change the style of the editor window to look more like the QE toolbar style than the manager style. That way I’m not dependent on changing manager styles and I’ll have a more uniform frontend look and feel. This may change with the new manager, I’ll have to see.

I also want to make the toolbar float and have it expand and collapse in a fancier way but that’ll come after I get some functionality taken care of.

P.S. Ryan’s Safari fixes and CSS improvements are included and the actual module and plugin code hasn’t changed in a while so you shouldn’t have to worry about updating them, just overwrite the files.

Update:
Newer version can be found here.

Adam:

I hacked together a few changes tonight to QE using some things in the new manager. I’d like to see if you could add them in, so whenever you have a few minutes free, please drop me a line and I’ll explain. It primarily has to do with toggling sessions. Also for the most compatibility, you may want to think about using the prototype/script.aculo.us combo, as that is what we are using for all effects in the manager (so it will be bundled w/ the app already). If you want more details on this, just let me know. It’s insanely easy to add nice animation effects, though.

I’ve updated the content again at http://pixelhick.com/ , but have not updated to the latest/greatest QuickEdit. Now the site has:

• a custom 404 page with site map,
• a roubst search implmentation with split results,
• a default blog telling folks how to get started so they can post,
• a new DateTime snippet that is configurable, and
• a custom contact form implmentation,
• and RSS 2.0 feeds of the Blogs.

Should we include a simple photo gallery, or not? The file size will become considerably larger I think if we do.

I need to for sure add RSS Feeds for the blog... will do that after a brief nap. I should probably convert the form on Newspublisher to a chunk so they can see that in action for a default install... and the styling could use some help as well for the blog entry posts. And to turn on comments for certain users (Registered Users). Probably Rich Text Posting entries, too... lol

We definitely need the marketing team to work on the default content/text.

Any other ideas to toss in as a basic requirements?

The site is looking mighty good! It sure show Modx capabilities!

Great work!

I just download the file from the first post to do an upgrade install on my sandbox site and I got the following error message.

*** upgrade error message***
Setup will now attempt to setup the database:

Thanks

That’s very odd. I’m not quite sure what’s going on... FYI none of the new content has been added to the installer yet.

IE 7 work with the test site with the exception of the CSS look kinda weird. Please see screen shot.

I’m definitely not worried about rendering in IE7, as it’s nowhere close to released, and it should change drastically in the way it renders CSS-styled site with the next beta.

OK, update on the new MODx "default content" as seen here:

It all seems to work fairly well, with the exception of the custom template for creating blog entries is tripping up the calendar JS somehow. I could use some assistance here and in general review in Win IE/FF.

You can access the manager with: admin/backuplogin
Webuser login access via: siteadmin/password

Now the default content/functionality includes:

• a custom 404 page with site map,
• custom forms via chunks for Mini-blog section ( [[NewsPublisher]] ), Login ( [[WebLogin]] ), and Webuser Account creation ( [[WebSignup]] ),
• a roubst search implmentation with split results ( [[FlexSearchForm]] ),
• a default blog telling folks how to get started so they can post,
• a new DateTime snippet that is configurable ( [[DateTime]] ),
• a custom contact form implmentation ( [[ContactForm]] ),
• Default blog content telling how to create a SiteAdmin webuser, and
• a RSS 2.0 feeds of the Mini-Blog Section.

Left to do:

• Thorough site content review, including rewriting most content completely,
• Add in [[UserComments]] for the Blog post (only allow registered users to comment),
• Switch Mini-blog content and summary to use RichText TVs,
• Replace complex makeURL-based form actions with simpler action="[~[*id*]~]" in several snippets,
• Fix [[DropMenu]] to not render empty ULs,
• Fix Date picker on Mini-blog custom chunk-form,
• Commit all changes to SVN, and
• Optimize CSS and Template Structure more, including too-wide textareas.

Any other suggestions?

The search box looks like it should be more to the right.

I would also suggest that Susan’s excellent side bar tutorial be included; seems like it makes a great example for how to easily customize site content using CFs:
