octobercms-backendskin's Issues

This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

I've been using the latest version of backendskin plugin for a couple days. It is working well. However, there is an issue of being compatible with HTTPS. I've tried a simple investigation and here is my summary for your reference.

Mixed Content: The page at 'https://DOMAIN/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://DOMAIN/themes/demo/assets/images/[email protected]'. This request has been blocked; the content must be served over HTTPS.

October CMS version: v2.2.32

Installed Plugins
Cyd293.BackendSkin 1.2.1
October.Demo 1.0.1

.env Setting
LINK_POLICY=secure

Reproduce steps:

• Install the latest OctoberCMS v2.x
• Install the latest BackendSkin plugin v1.2.1
• Updated the LINK_POLICY to secure.

And by removing or disabling the BackendSkin plugin, OctoberCMS can be back to normal. For example, .env setting as below.
DISABLE_PLUGINS="Cyd293.BackendSkin"

One more thing that could be worth mentioning is the following code section. The code, Url::asset($asset); seems not returning correct url with HTTPS.

File location: /plugins/cyd293/backendskin/traits/AssetMaker.php
Line number 336

Add backendskins/default

Add folder backendskins/default
This will use as the default backendskin

Add Selection of Backend Skin in Admin Page

Add selection of Backend Skin Admin Settings.

Widgets & plugins override not working

As mentioned on october cms' site, the ltrim has an unexpected result, making the plugin not working with widgets and plugins. Here is what I had to change in the boot function:

$newViewPath = str_replace(base_path(), '', $origViewPath);

Array must be type of array

https://octobercms.com/plugin/support/cyd293-backendskin/plugin-causing-array-key-exists-argument-2-array-must-be-of-type-array-string-given-illuminatecollectionsarrphp-line-177

Class "October\Rain\Router\UrlGenerator" not found

After installing the plugin, I get the following error:

Class "October\Rain\Router\UrlGenerator" not found

It seems that the UrlGenerator does not exist in October anymore and you should update your plugin.

when using backendhelper on octobercms3 release 3.1.26 with php 8.0.23 I get this error on backend model edit

array_key_exists(): Argument #2 ($array) must be of type array, string given

I debugged the laravel array helper class get the string 'build' instead of an array from plugin backendhelper

Override yaml file

Hey

Can we override plugin yaml file with this plugins ?
exp: i want to override 'plugins/rainlab/user/models/user/columns.yaml'

Thanks

Update AssetMaker.php

AssetMaker trait needs updating with changes in modules/system/traits/AssetMaker.php. Specifically it doesn't handle assets being passed in an array e.g. in a component $this->addCss('assets/css/uploader.css'); works but $this->addCss(['assets/css/uploader.css']); doesn't. See octobercms/october@aeb7616 (but there could be other changes).

Can't modified the models view

Changing the models view is not working.

Example: backendskins/{myskincode}/views/plugins/xxx/models/_*.htm

Call to undefined method Backend\VueComponents\Modal::addJsBundle()

Separate folder for backend skin

Map the backend skin from backend themes

* /themes
         /my-theme1
         /my-theme2

Permissions missing

Plugin doesn´t have permissions so it is unable to set which admin roles can use it
