3.0 Beta 2 DS/config

So I've tried to set up Symphony 2.3 - along with SSM3.0beta2.

The install worked fine - and I could select fields and everything. What's strange is that when I added the datasource.. the result looked somewhat different to what I had expected.

  <widgets field-id="32" subsection-id="6" items="1">
    <item id="80" />
  </widgets>
  <widgets field-id="32" subsection-id="6" items="1">
    <item id="80" />
  </widgets>

Where I would have expected to be one item - with two fields inside with actual content.

Note I had also pulled the extension from tag 2.3 a couple of days back... but waited for this to be moved into master - as I thought it was unfinished before. (When I pulled & updated the results stayed the same)

That's quite strange.

  • How many fields did you select from your subsection in your Data Source?
  • Is there a subsectionmanager-storage file in your manifest?
jonmifsud commented

Selected two fields - If I select 3 fields I see another <widgets> chunk so to say.

yep file exists and this is the content a:1:{s:6:"fields";a:0:{}} looks un-populated to me...

nilshoerrmann commented

Can you make sure that file is readable and resave you DS, please? Maybe that helps.

jonmifsud commented

content stays the same. File gets deleted when I save the DS - and re-created when I visit a page with the DS for the first time.

nilshoerrmann commented

Do you use any special field types besides the core ones?

nilshoerrmann commented

And could you post the $dsParamINCLUDEDELEMENTS array from your DS, please?

jonmifsud commented

Not inside the SSM itself no. Just text-input and a text-area.

Below is the includes when I select all the fields inside the DS.

Widgets is the content-area the SSM is linked to.

public $dsParamINCLUDEDELEMENTS = array(
    'page',
    'widgets: name',
    'widgets: template-name',
    'widgets: content: formatted',
    'widgets: content: unformatted'
);

Right, thanks. We'll be working on a private project this weekend that uses Symphony 2.3 and Subsection Manager – I'll check if I can recreate and fix your problem then.

jonmifsud commented

Ok no problem & no rush. Its a private project too here. If I have some time to spare I'll try have a look as well. Would be in the field.subsectionmanager.php probably inside appendFormattedElement() ?

nilshoerrmann commented

The problem lies most likely in extension.driver.php – this is where the extension parses included fields and caches entries.

Had the same problem and added a fix to pull request #201.

The problem was that with the new abstractions in the 2.3 Datasources, "normal" section DS extend now the SectionDatasource class.

Thanks a lot, Jonas!
