Hi, I'm new to modx and so far I love it.
However I'm on a project where I would like the client to be able to manager the contents of a table on a page. The client does not understand html and it has to be fool proof.
Hence I thought the best way to do this would be to create a dynamically configurable Grid TV input type that I can configure when creating the TV.
Now I'm not sure on how to go about this. I saw the samples in the documentation, how ever I need a little more guidance to get this done.
Can anybody help?
Thanks.
may be you can use MIGX for that task
Hey Bruno,
Thanks for the info. Yes this is exactly what I was looking for.
Awesome, you just saved me a lot of time.
Hi Bruno,
Thanks again, the TV is working great for my purposes.
However there is one minor drawback:
The site I'm creating is in german and I need to be able to use Umlaute (ä, ü, ö, etc) and I can't get them to show properly, either they are UTF encoded or the HTML entities are neglected.
Could this be a feature that goes into your next release?
Best,
Matt
Hi Matt,
look for parts like this in fields.php and migx.php and change them:
$col['header'] = htmlentities($column['header'], ENT_QUOTES);
->
$col['header'] = htmlentities($column['header'], ENT_QUOTES, $modx->getOption('modx_charset'));
