Hi folks,

i'm working my way through marys great tut at codingpad: http://codingpad.maryspad.com/2011/02/07/modx-revolution-for-complete-beginners-part-6-working-with-template-variables/

As far as i am now, i can say nice one i like the way modx does things.

In Mary's last installment about template variables i got a problem assigning the template access. In Mary's example image:

i can see access checkboxes, but in my backend there is only the column labeled 'Access' but no checkboxes in it.

I'm working with the initial admin account right now. Hope anyone can point me in the right direction.

So update from my side:

The checkbox is still missing, but i discovered that it is possible to trigger the function nonetheless.

I have just to click in the empty space of the div wrapper of the checkbox, its a bit difficult because its rather small. I used firebug as target helper wink

see ya

Try reducing your view/zoom level. I'm getting the feeling you're not seeing it because it's falling off the side of your browser screen. Maybe... worth a try at least.

tried it
tried also in firefox, chrome, IE9

No checkboxes! Heres the markup of one row of the tables
The checkbox should be in the thrid table cell, but nothing there...

<table cellspacing="0" cellpadding="0" border="0" style="width:1541px;" class="x-grid3-row-table">
    <tbody>
      <tr>
        <td tabindex="0" style="width: 460px;" class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-0 x-selectable x-grid3-cell-first">
          <div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-0">
            BasisTemplate
          </div>
        </td>

        <td tabindex="0" style="width: 924px;" class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-1 x-selectable">
          <div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-1">Template</div>
        </td>

        <td tabindex="0" style="width: 151px;" class="x-grid3-col x-grid3-cell x-grid3-td-ext-gen76 x-selectable x-grid3-cell-last x-grid3-check-col-td">
            <div class="x-grid3-cell-inner x-grid3-col-ext-gen76">
               <div class="x-grid3-check-col x-grid3-cc-ext-gen76"> </div>
             </div>
        </td>
      </tr>

      <tr style="" class="x-grid3-row-body-tr">
        <td hidefocus="on" tabindex="0" class="x-grid3-body-cell" colspan="3">
          <div class="x-grid3-row-body"></div>
        </td>
      </tr>
    </tbody>
  </table>

What's the output type of your checkbox TV?

You might try turning off the compress_js and compress_css System Settings (and clearing the site cache).

Hi BobRay,

this is about the template variables dialog of modx in revo2.2.4pl

The dialog has a tab 'Template Access', where in the column 'Access' has to be checkboxes for every template listed in the table. But in mine installation there issn't.

I figured after looking at the css that modx backend uses just images for the checkbox and not the form element. It seems the browser cannot find these images...

I will look into this.

Did you try turning off compress_js and compress_css?

Also, try manually deleting all files in the core/cache directory, then clearing your browser cache and cookies.

Are the Templates or TVs protected by any ACL entries?

Hey,

new info from my side:
i checked the css again and found some wierd image path for the background-image...

.x-grid3-check-col {
    background-image: url("D:/workspace/internetauftritt/manager/templates/default/images/modx-theme/menu/unchecked.gif");
    cursor: pointer;
    margin-top: 10px;
}

Why is the manager using a file path here ?? Help... someone?

Is that the path where your site is installed? Mine is

/modx224/manager/templates/default/images/modx-theme/menu/unchecked.gif

but that's on a Mac.

What do the other background images have?

back again

another example:

.x-item-disabled .x-tbar-page-first {
    background-image: url("D:/workspace/classing.internetauftritt/manager/templates/default/images/modx-theme/grid/page-first-disabled.png") !important;
}

Our dedicated Server is running Windows...

its obvious a path problem, any Ideas? Do i have to set a special path in config or adjust something maybe in a .htaccess file, or apache aliases?
