Installation

Copy the module folder to /system/modules and update the database. You might need to clear the internal cache as well. The plugin brings two new templates:

• mod_customcatalogedit.html5
• customcatalog_default_edit.html5

Installation Contao 4.4.x

Copy the module folder to /system/modules and update the database. Manually clear the internal cache (var/cache). Once the module is installed it will create a config.yml (or append an existing one) in the /app/config folder on first load.

• If the file has not been created automatically copy the config.yml file coming with this extension to the /app/config folder (or append your config.yml)

• If you already use a config.yml, append these configurations:

# contao.picker.builder::customcatalog_frontedit
services:
   contao.picker.builder:
      class: PCT\Contao\Picker\PickerBuilder
      arguments:
            - '@knp_menu.factory'
            - '@router'
            - '@request_stack'

# contao.picker.page_provider::customcatalog_frontedit
services:
   contao.picker.page_provider:
      class: PCT\Contao\Picker\PagePickerProvider

# contao.picker.file_provider::customcatalog_frontedit
services:
   contao.picker.file_provider:
      class: PCT\Contao\Picker\FilePickerProvider

Deinstallation

• Delete the module folder and clear the cache.
• Contao 4.4.x: Delete the config.yml file or remove the configuration blocks from your custom config.yml

Activate CustomElement plugin

Navigate to "My Content elements" / "Meine Inhaltselemente" > Plugin Management and enable the new plugin.

Usage

The plugin brings two new methods to your CustomCatalog template.

• $entry->editable();
• $entry->field('myAttribute')->widget();
• $entry->field('myFilesAttribute')->uploadWidget( $arrSettings );

The editable() methode callable for a CustomCatalog RowTemplate object (each entry is one of those) checks if the entry can be edited by the current user The widget() method callable for a CustomCatalog TemplateAttribute (any attribute in a cc template file is one of those) generates the attributes formular field.

See the customcatalog_default_edit.html5 Template
