cardboard-admin-archive's Issues

seed file running twice

really low priority. Have no clue why it's doing this.
on a side note, now seeding cardboard does not use the default rake db:seed but rather rake cardboard:seed

The rich content boxes are nice however they are a bit difficult to work with if there is alot of content

The rich content boxes are nice however they are a bit difficult to work with if there is alot of content because they arent expandable. the rich content boxes used on airport shuttles was very nice even the ones on wordpress.

Not a priority

order the resources

Jay requested a new feature I just wanted to run it through you before implementing it. Being able to set the order the resources are shown on the cardboard panel. I thought it could be another entry on cardboard.yml. Resources that match will be sort in that order and all others will be put at the end. I was thinking something like:

resources:
order:
- pianos
- dogs
- countries

Images in wysiwyg rich editor?

In some cases (i'm looking at you blog post) it makes sense to let the use add images in a rich text editor. I think we should implement something like what refinery has:

Pages: A page's "Browser Title" and "Description" fields under the SEO part don't save their own values.

Reproduce:

• Create 2 pages... Example: Create a "Welcome" page and an "About us" page.
• Fill the "Browser Title" and "Description" fields under the SEO part on the Welcome page.
• View the "Browser Title" and "Description" fields on the About us page. The About us page has the exact same values as what you inserted in the Welcome page.
• Now try to change those values for the About us page to something different and save.

Result:

The SEO fields on the "About us" page didn't save, and it seems that they always inherit the parent's values for those fields.

What should happen instead?

• A user should be able to assign unique values for each page's SEO fields.

Remove "Keywords Meta Tags" from pages

Google has ignored the keywords meta tag for years, and they have zero effect on rankings. So they are not needed as an option for pages.

http://googlewebmastercentral.blogspot.com/2009/09/google-does-not-use-keywords-meta-tag.html

Update doc to specify that migrations have to be run before cardboard resources can be generated

Add an :if option to menu

All this authorization/authentication talks we've been having remind me we need this :if option in the menu method:

http://stackoverflow.com/a/9673034/637094

# ...
 menu :if => proc{ !current_user.is_admin? },
       :label => 'My Store'
# ...

So Cardboard can accommodate n roles easily.

Should we use PG in the "dummy" app?

Using "sqlite3" will make it easier for developers that want to collaborate, other gems (e.g. devise) use it.

add ability to pass collection for search

Something like these:
:field_name, :as => :select, :collection => {'Gray' => 0, 'Red' => 1, 'Yellow' => 2, 'Green' => 3}
:field_name, as: :select, collection: (QuarterlyReport.order("year DESC").uniq.pluck(:year) rescue []), label: "Year"

rake generate command formatting issue in routes file

rails g cardboard:install

generates the following error

/Users/plebrun/smashingboxes/projected/config/routes.rb:3: syntax error, unexpected tIDENTIFIER, expecting keyword_end (SyntaxError) mount Cardboard::Engine => "/cardboard"  devise_for :admin_users

Too many items in the menu totally breaks the layout

Auto expand rich text editors (or full screen)

Auto expand rich text editors to see everything that is typed. Another option would be to add a full screen mode.

Deleting the page from the yml file does not remove it from the database

i messed up a page section in my yml file and needed to delete it. when removing it from my yml file and running rake db:migrate then going to the cardboard dashboard the page is still listed.

don't use pjax for links to files

Sorting is ineficient

    def sort
      params[:pages].each_with_index do |id, index|
        Page.find(id).update_attribute(:position_position, index + 1)
      end
      render nothing: true
    end

what wat? Please use ranked-model super awsomeness

automatically generated sitemap.xml

delete links don't work in firefox

related to eval/rack-pjax#22

Firefox problem on login

can't login with firefox!

Images broken

Specifically, they break in repeatable parts. I seem to be able to upload the image but the admin form breaks subsequently.

Page slide-out menu bugged when loading an edit page directly

Support multiple users with roles

let the main app allow which users can see the admin section, edit other users...

Filter with relationships

would be nice to have filter which lets you search on other related models

cannot load such file -- coffee_script

coffee-rails seems to be missing as a dependency of cardboard.

Extend scss

Update readme to show how to add custom css for admin section (and overwrite defaults).

Add Link modal needs love!

Basic actions:

Link to page
Link to resource
Link to external page

Maybe a tabs in the modal,

The textfield on the screenshot allows relative or absolute URLS, but it will be nice to select resources instead and have http:// already there for external URLs.

in /cardboard no links for controllers (only in production)

Extend admin_helper

Add documentation on how to extend the admin_helper with custom helper for resources

Access other page content on current_page

pages:
  about_us:
    parts:
      initiatives:
        page_slug: string
        repeatable: true

We have a list of page titles and extracts on one page with a link to those respective pages. It would be nice to have some kind of helper to do Page.find(:page_slug) to access parts and fields of other pages.

Destroy link doesn't work on resources

Filter with boolean does not work properly

Underline button in Rich Editor doesn't work.

Reproduce:

• Go to a page's Admin panel.
• Add some content via the Rich Editor and underline a word.
• Go to the front end to see the content inserted into the editor.

What's wrong?

• The word that was underlined in the Admin editor isn't underlined in the fornt end view.

What should happen instead?

• The word should be underlined.

Imagine a nicer way of showing repeatable parts!

We show them vertically now, but it's hard to tell that all parts belong to a collection. We need ideas, sketches on how to improve this!

See how a second part starts at the bottom? It's not very clear that this belong together.

retained_value for images and files does not work

The user should not have to reselect an image if there was an validation error

When rails can't pluralize a resource, cardboard main sidebar breaks

Error

ActionController::UrlGenerationError: No route matches {:action=>"show", :controller=>"cardboard/foo"} missing required keys: [:id]

Example, for a resource named Foo, cardboard_#{controller.controller_name}_path becomes cardboard_foo_path but the generated route is cardboard_foo_index

See: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActiveSupport/Inflector.html

More control over Admin pages for Developers

More control is needed over Admin pages for Developers building an app with Cardboard. Right now a Developer can only specify the "types" that are provided by Cardboard and that's it... that's the only control a developer has over Admin pages.

Developers should be able to add more things (dynamic widgets, static content, connect resources, etc.) to each page's admin panel that are unrelated to the Cardboard "types" and are more related to a customer's specific business and logic.

For example I have a Person model for a Cardboard resource of people, and I want to display these people in my "About us" page on the front end. Right now I can do this and that's fine. But what if I need to pull the same resource in the admin section for the "About us" page so my customer can control which people will display in that page? Right now this is not possible.

I am only showing a simple example here, but you can imagine that customers may have very broad or specific business needs for each page. How is Cardboard allowing Developers to extend each Admin Page's logic and View?

Perhaps this is already taken into account, but I'm opening this issue since there aren't any docs on how to extend the Admin pages themselves.

Required images do not show errors if they are empty

Dashboard

page views: We could implement our own page views count, or simply hook up to google analytics api (but there's a max).

We should probably design some widgets (number, gage...) that can be used on the dashboard.

How to add custom routes to resources

Cardboard::SomeController should know which resource class it belongs to.

Reproduce:

• Create a model such as: class Person < ActiveRecord::Base
• Create a Cardboard resource: rails g cardboard:resource person
• Go the resource view in the Admin panel and observe

What's wrong?

• The resource has default incorrect data that cannot be overridden unless we put this at the top of the model: defaults :resource_class => Person

What should happen instead?

• defaults :resource_class => Person shouldn't be a requirement at all.

Add image to "default" field within the cardboard.yml file

So we can have default text for a field within a carboard.yml file but what if we want to set a default image? that would make it convenient to show clients what a site might look like with content but not actually adding any content to the database.

site_title setting in cardboard.yml always displays the string 'Idea'

Reproduce

• Go to cardboard.yml in the settings section and change the site_title setting to the following:
  settings:
site_title:
type: string
default: Some Website
• In your view paste the following: <%= Cardboard::Setting.site_title %>

What's wrong?

• The site shows the string 'Idea' instead of 'Some Website' as it was specified.

What should happen instead?

• Cardboard::Setting.site_title should display the string that was specified in the cardboard.yml file.

Formatting text in rich_text box outputs to string

when setting text as a header in the rich text box, it outputs to that tag but wrapped in quotes making it a string.

What's the difference between "Title" and "Browser titlebar"?

Most likely users would not know what "Browser titlebar" refers to. As a user I just want to add my Page's title and its description. "Browser titlebar" means nothing to the user.

"Browser titlebar" should be created automatically based on some other input(s), or it could be a config property in the cardboard.yml file that doesn't actually show in the page's admin panel.

Resource filters

We want to add a filters sidebar to the index page of all resources. This filters are generated based on the fields of each resource.

Help us change this:

To this:

I think we should worry about UX, before UI. All final UI will have to be approved by Bryan.

Paragraphs in content box of resource wont output to separate paragraphs in html

separate paragraphs in editable resource content box

something like
