wcms's Issues

Checbox : Check all

Add a checkbox that check all the boxes !

@n-peugnet

Manage multiple database

Admin should be able to manage multiple database by adding, duplicating importing or exporting.

It could be usefull to save snapshot of a specific state of a work. Or change between different projects.

Use icomoon for icons

As you are now using custom icons instead of emojis, I think you should use an easier and lighter way to include icons in you pages.

Icomoon is letting you use a custom made font containing your svg icons and then including it in you pages like so:

<!-- include the generated stylesheet and icon font -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://i.icomoon.io/public/temp/d87f895f75/UntitledProject/style.css">

<!-- use the icon in the page -->
<span class="icon-file-empty"></span>

You can select from an already existing icon set or import your own SVGs. And I can help you in that transition if you want.

show favicons listed in home view

It would be awesome to display favicons in the second columns, just after the checkbox.

Todo :

• add favicon column

Add a gallery view in the media desktop

for dealing with images

Add a sample pages database at first launch

Give access to user datas visiting a page in javascript

use //api/<query> and create a dedicated controller to give back datas JSON

Implement Code Mirror

https://codemirror.net/

add the ability to use code mirror instead of textarea to have rich text editor for markdown, html, css and js.

Maybe @n-peugnet can help with that.

Add a minimal css to template to quickly get a beautiful first page.

Related to #8.

It would help, for a first time user, to have at least one page defined with a very basic minimal CSS which the user could template to get a first page with a good look.

Synthax coloration for W synthax using CodeMirror

Adding synthax coloration for elements inclusions like %SUMMARY% or pages lists %LIST?sortby=id&order=1%

Header ID <--> Summary : Element based, render option

Actually, Header IDs are page generated, and not optional.

Elements

How could be a new system, more element based. That way, users may set options during including, like :

%MAIN?headerid=1-3% or %MAIN?headerid=0%

Or add the possibility to generate anchor links after titles.

%MAIN?headerlink=1%

ID style

-> sub headers
To avoid collision, headers ID could use this form : h1/h2/h3. It could be very long depending of the deepness.

This should also be a rendering option. For example : %ASIDE?headerfamily=1%

Summary

Now, what about summary ? should it be element based as well ?

If so, for example, how to add a summary in the NAV element, referring to the MAIN element's headers.

%SUMMARY?element=main&range=1-4%

If think it is starting to be too complicated. If users can disable headers ID on elements they don't want, they can already manage to use only one element if they want.

Conclusion

So technically, the summary element, may stay page based, but the header IDs should be element based.

Add redirect direction and time to pages proprieties

using the header(Location: <direction>, <time>) PHP function

First strategy is to ask for redirection adress. That could be a internal page or distant link.

Then ask for delay time in second.

302 or 303 redirection will be automatically set if time delay is used or not.

Feature : add an account desactivation based on connections count

Fun feature to create temporary users, like "destroy after reading"

download file from url

In order to upload more directly images, or other media, to the hosting server, maybe this could be usefull to allow files downloading from URL.

Question : is it always allowed by PHP / Apache Configuration ?

link to clean up

Link to rendering is not up to date, should integrate pages lists.

In home view, filter options could have a page list as linkto and/or linkfrom to filter pages by this info.

Is'nt it to big ???

Sort medias by date

Would it be possible to give a date of upload to media? and print folder content sorted by date

Change `/!media` to `//media` for backend adress

Change /!media to //media for backend adress

Folder structure can be inexistant on media upload if the media page has not been open yet

For instance when you try to upload a thumbnail from the edit page

Add graph visualisation

As a powerfull tool to se the website map, there should be a graph visualisation.

This should use javascript and npm to integrate easily.

Selected library : cytoscape.js

I first looked at sigma.js, but it don't seems to be very updated.

A vintage look at the first ever graph used in first versions of W

Media deletion wont't return to selected folder

New feature : deactivate markdown possibility in BODY element

For example :

%MAIN?md=0

Will insert the MAIN element but without markdown synthax

change alert pop up after AJAX update to "last update" timestamp

Instead of having to press enter key after each update, why not update a "last updated" timestamp in the editor top bar.
That way you can be certified of the update by seing the timestamp changing.

Is it complicated to do that @n-peugnet ??

• remove alert
• add lastupdate timestamp

I want new issues

Prout

store in a page if it's used as css template

And if it is true, always render css when the page is updated.

Add CSS file dedicated to alert pages

Keep the option of using global css for those pages as well.

Add Page::geolocalisation metadata

Maybe this could be usefull for making geographical maps ??

Following the Date / Time Idea

• add the data fields
• allow to filter pages that have geo datas
• display a map in home view
  • using external CDN
  • using npm and webpack
• new %MAP% code to insert map in pages
• show a little leaflet map in edit view

Maybe the map is too different from the list and will need another code, like %MAP%. As it should include default view settings using lat, long and zoom.

Add default thumbnail in admin menu

New Feature : Page deletion after visitcount

Add an option in page edition to select an int, that will be the max visit counter.

Remember that visit is different from aff, it only count visitor users.

After what, the page is deleted.

Set up a DEMO SITE

It would be good to allow web visitor to access a demo site.

Maybe I could re-use the .env and add a DEMO=(0|1) option ?

What do you think @n-peugnet ?

Otherwise in in the config.json file.

What should be done :

• freeze admin panel
• freeze demo admin user
• disable delete rights

Normalize media insertion

Actually, the media explorer use a media/<folder>/<files> structure.

But the user code use the <folder>/<file> structure, avoiding retyping the media/ folder each time.

The best way could be to combine the two structures, using a /media for root directory or directly the <folder>/ shortcut to include files more quickly.

So let's add a slash before media to specify the difference.

Keep users connected with cookies

Actually there ain't any cookie system to keep users connected. But the setting in the user panel already exist !

What I'd like to do :

• By default, there are no uses of cookies.
• Users that are editors and above, can access their users panels to set a cookie conservation time.

That way, lower users classes stick to the shorter session data system.

A more complex approach would have been to use a list of authorized hardware cookies, and manage sessions. It could be a future feature. By default, any new client would be without cookies, that way, you wouldn't have to worry when using a random computer or smartphone just once.

OR

Maybe, there could be a checkbox, when typing credential, the famous "remember me", (unchecked by default of course) that could do this job instead. This will bypass the cookie conservation setting.

BUT

If there is this checkbox and users did'nt set there user parameters, this won't work until they found the setting.

Is the conservation time user setting still usefull ??

It can allow this specific use case :

Setting a short conservation time (one day or two) for example, and checking the "remember me" option. That way you can use foreign computers for one day without worrying.

Display shortcut

Use CTRL + D shortcut to display page innew tab.

@n-peugnet can you do this ?? if it's not to complicated for the js-boss ?

Audio tag src rendering error

When using .. folder/file src, the render engine didn't update the adress

Deep Search bar

Add a search bar to look for expressions in CONTENT areas.

Text input with checkboxes for where to search.
This could have been set inside the filter view, but maybe more in a autonomous window (that could be activated or not in the display menu), just between the menu bar and the pages table/options.
The second idea looks better because this search seems more independent from the filters (not very interesting for pagelist or bookmarks), it's more supposed to be a archive exploration tool.

This should also be compatible with regex.

Composer autoloading with PSR4

https://www.php-fig.org/psr/psr-4/

• implement namespaces

Custom head

It would be cooool to give a custom head for all the new pages created like in the page creation options in the admin section.
And also in the mass edit function.

Put the manual in main folder as a markdown file

The user manual should be in the root folder.
It should use markdown.
It can even use the auto-summary from the modelrender class function to automatically render the menu.

Page_id autocompletion using CodeMirror

When typing a link or quicklink, it could be usefull to have autocompletion for pages ids.

The page id list is already loaded anyway

https://codemirror.net/demo/complete.html

Set max deepness level for the %SUMMARY% function

Syntax could be like %SUMMARY:<deepness_level>%

Set good / options folder/files creating permission

For avoiding permissions issues during writing / reading /executing processes, there should be :

• better default permissions settings while creating files #148
• options during initialisation for a fine tuning

Remplace tag counter by comma separated link list of tags in home view > tag column

To encourage tag sorting.

Clicking on a tag will filter the pages by this tag selection.

Merge font with media

The font folder should be accessible in the media explorer

Duplicate page or Add new page as a copy of...

A function that could have to form doing the same things :

Add as a copy of

when creating a new page, add the option to be the copy of an already existing page (of course using the new Id.

For this we can use <newpageid>/add:<pageid> Or something like that

Duplicate

When in a page scope, add <pageid>/duplicate:<newpageid>. This is the symmetrical approach. function.

Feature : export project as static site

This is a very important feature to implement :

Export the whole project as a static page using only html pages, js, css and relative paths that let the possibility to use it anywhere.

Problems I see:

• Watch out for external libraries or css

Create script or makefile to build the distribution zip

It will be useful to bundle the application later without forgetting steps.

I could make a PR for this once #13 is merged

Authorize Favicon .ico

Work on the favicon media manager

Allow non-admin user to manage their own password by them-self

This is important one, that allow to invite new editors that are not physically present when creating a new account.

BUT,

This will need a big change in the actual credential system. Before Doing this, I need to change the credential style from single password, to user / password connection --> #70 .

Diff beetwen Publishing and Updating datas / autosave

Filtering won't work without options stored in session

F3 search function not finding text element when not visible

Since Code Mirror is implemented, I cannot use F3 search function to find text element when they are not visible onscreen. I need to scroll down to them in order for the search function to find them.
I tried with different web browsers (Chrome and Firefox) and the issue was the same.
My version of W is 1.7.5.
