[RESOLVED] MM 0.3.5 on Evo 1.0.1 does not rename fields but works with tabs

Reposting. Not sure why my previous post about this issue has disappeared.

Got a very strange issue after installing MM 0.3.5 onto Evo 1.0.1. MM executes mm_renameTab and mm_changeFieldHelp without any problems, but completely ignores mm_hideFields and mm_renameField. I tried them on longtitle, description, and custom TVs. Nothing works.

I’m using minimized jQuery 1.3.2 in the default location assets/js. The server is CentOS 5, Apache 2, PHP 5.

Is anybody else seeing this behavior?

I havent tried 035 version myself yet, but I think this one uses TV IDs instead of names. May be this is the issue?

With a clean install of 1.0.1 which includes ManagerManager, I can’t reproduce this. Here’s the original post: http://modxcms.com/forums/index.php/topic,41114.0.html

Not sure if it’s related or not, but I am having a similar issue. I am able to hide almost all of the standard fields with the exception of content. I have tried it in various scenarios with no success.

Hey Ryan,

i’ve downloaded and setup the latest install 1.0.1. Everything is clean without any modifications.

Adding this rule " mm_renameField(’longtitle’, ’Page heading’); " to the blank mm_rules.inc.php does not change the label of the long title field. It is still labeled as "Long title" on all of the pages in the sample site.

This is very strange. Just to confirm my expectations: i expect this rule to change the label of the longtitle field on all documents in the site to ’Page heading’.

Any ideas or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Update. It works.

Still not sure what the original issue was, but the latest one is simple. The default configuration that comes with 1.0.1 is to use mm_rules chunk to define the rules. But i was specifying rules in the mm_rules.inc.php file. The non-existent chunk was overriding the file.
Removing the chunk from the MM configuration solved that problem.

MM is the answer to the prayers of many of my clients since they have to delegate the content creation on their sites to their not-so-technical personnel. Hiding unnecessary fields is just what they need.

MODx shines once again.

Hi,

I’m using rules in a chunk called mm_rules. Rules work when applied to Fields but do not work when applied to Sections. For example:

mm_renameField(’introtext’,’Summary’); //Works

mm_hideFields(’pagetitle,menutitle,link_attributes,template,menuindex,description,show_in_menu,which_editor,is_folder,is_richtext,log,searchable,cacheable,clear_cache’, $news_role); //Works

but,

mm_renameSection(’content’,’Full story’); // Doesn’t work

mm_hideSections(’tvs’); // Doesn’t work

Any solutions gratefully received
